Article Abstract
Research suggests that household social risks are associated with worse mental health in adolescents, but prior studies have been limited. We evaluated the association between social risks and symptoms of depression and anxiety in adolescents 1 year later by conducting a retrospective cohort study at an integrated health system with 45 practices. Adolescents were screened for depression using the Patient Health Questionnaire-2 (PHQ-2) and anxiety using the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-2 (GAD-2). Of the 4748 adolescents, 1220 (25.7%) had at least 1 social risk, 226 (5.7%) reported symptoms of depression, and 410 (10.2%) reported symptoms of anxiety. Adolescents in households with at least 1 social risk were more likely to report symptoms of depression (β = 0.15, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.07-0.23) and anxiety (β = 0.21, 95% CI = 0.11-0.31) and had greater odds of a positive PHQ-2 (odds ratio [OR] = 1.50, 95% CI = 1.12-2.01) and positive GAD-2 (OR = 1.57; 95% CI = 1.32, 1.87).

Disordered eating behaviors and depressive symptoms can be problematic during pregnancy for both the individual and their offspring. Our study aimed to determine the extent to which body image dissatisfaction early in pregnancy predicts eating disorder behaviors and/or depressive symptoms across pregnancy. Participants ( = 253) completed self-report assessments of depressive and eating disorder symptoms alongside the modified Body Image in Pregnancy Scale in their first, second, and third trimesters.

Background: Depression runs in families, with both genetic and environmental mechanisms contributing to intergenerational continuity, though these mechanisms have often been studied separately. This study examined the interplay between genetic and environmental influences in the intergenerational continuity of depressive symptoms from parents to offspring.
Methods: Using data from the Dutch TRAILS cohort ( = 2201), a prospective, genetically informed, multiple-generation study, we examined the association between parents' self-reported depressive symptoms (reported at mean age of 41 years) and offspring depressive symptoms, self-reported nearly two decades later, in adulthood (mean age: 29 years).
