ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY 8

Week 3 Assignment 2 Grading Criteria Revised grade for resubmission

Due Tuesday, February 16, 2016

You have all of the articles that you need. My concern is that all of your summaries read like they come primarily from the abstract. This makes me a bit concerned about how you will synthesize the information together. Make sure you thoroughly read the discussion section of each of these articles in writing your week five paper.

Maximum Points

Identified at least six articles that were published within the past five years related to your chosen topic. To be successful in this area, your articles must be about one of the following: treatments for mood disorders (comparing and contrasting biological and psychosocial approaches), suicide (prevention, intervention, and relationship with mood disorders), substance abuse and mood disorders (review of current literature), or quality of life (how mood disorders affect work, home, and relationships). The articles provided fell within the expected timeframe. However, as noted, the articles did not really attend to the fundamental expectation of the assignment. That is, the articles focused on only pieces of the topic instead of the interplay of all of these elements together.

50/50

Provided a 2-paragraph summary for each article; presented a 1- to 2-paragraph analysis and evaluation for each article(focusing on how it supports your chosen topic); and integrated learning in the course readings in the analysis. The article summaries were sufficient to provide a basic awareness of the main objectives. However, the analysis/evaluation element was significantly underdeveloped; please see the comments throughout regarding this. Similarly, there was no correlation between the information from the articles to the information from the course.  Thus, at this point, because the analysis/evaluation component is missing/underdeveloped, it is more challenging to know how you intend to connect the information from the articles to craft your week 5 paper. Keep in mind that the final goal of this assignment is to be able to craft a clearly delineated position paper in week 5. With the information you have provided, it is difficult to see how you will tie the information together effectively.

60/100

Used correct spelling and grammar, professional vocabulary, and APA format.  you had some APA formatting errors. Please be sure to review comments within your paper for more specifics.

Suicide prevention in schizophrenia spectrum disorders and psychosis: A systematic review. BMC Psychology, 1(1), 6. Doi: 10.1186/2050-7283-1-6 Comment by Julie Davis: Article title not italicized. Comment by Julie Davis: This should be italicized and the page numbers should come right after this information.

The authors of the article noticed that there was a high incidence of suicide among patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorder and psychosis. Schizophrenia spectrum disorderis a psychotic disorder marked by severely impaired thinking, emotion and behaviors. The article covers a research done to investigate the effectiveness of psychosocial interventions in reducing suicidal behavior in patients with schizophrenia disorder. Comment by Julie Davis: Schizophrenia is not a mood disorder.

Randomized controlled trials were conducted whereby patients were treated as usual for their psychotic disoreder.no control group was used. The research conclusion was that the psychosocial interventions may be effective in reducing suicidal behaviour in patients with schizophrenia. The additional benefit was not however identified of treatment as usual.

The research therefore shows that the various intervention used in monitoring individuals with mood disorders can be used to ensure that suicidal behaviors are controlled. This can help in reducing the number of individuals who commit suicide (CDC, 2015). Comment by Julie Davis: How? Where is the tie back to the course work?

Fazel, S., Wolf, A., & Geddes, J. R. (2013). Suicide in prisoners with bipolar disorder and other psychiatric disorders: A systematic review. Bipolar Disorders, 15(5), 491-495. doi:10.1111/bdi.12053

The article was written with the aim of investigating the risk of suicide in prisoners who have bipolar disorders and other psychiatric disorder in comparison with those prisoners who do not have any psychiatric disorder. The prisoners were used as a case study because of the fact that there is data that shows that suicide is the leading cause of death among prisoners. The article reviewed observations made from the outcomes of suicide attempts in prisoners with psychotic disorder and those without.

The result of the review showed that there were higher chances of suicide in prisoners with psychiatric condition than in prisoners without. Although there was a clear evidence that there was increased cases of suicide among prisoners with psychotic disorders, the rate was higher in prisoners with bipolar disease.

The above article therefore show that there is varying levels of suicidal behaviour in the various mood disorders. This therefore implies that there have to be different level of interventions that need to be taken in order to ensure that an example such as bipolar disorder that was seen in the article to have a higher rate of suicidal behavior receives a higher amount of care and intervention. Comment by Julie Davis: This is a British spelling of the word. Comment by Julie Davis: I am not sure what you are indicating here. Need to do an analysis of the article. You need to relate the information back to what you have learned in the course.

Hauser, M., Galling, B., & Correll, C. U. (2013). Suicidal ideation and suicide attempts in children and adolescents with bipolar disorder: A systematic review of prevalence and incidence rates, correlates, and targeted interventions. Bipolar Disorders, 15(5), 507-523. doi:10.1111/bdi.12094

The above article covered suicide attempts and ideation in children and adolescent with bipolar disease. This review was done because of the realization that Pediatricbipolar disorder (PBD) is associated with very bad outcomes such as suicidal attempts and suicidal ideation. The method used was a review of articles that reported on incidences, correlates and intervention studies that targeted suicidal ideation and suicidal attempts in PBD.

The review showed that there is a high precedence of suicidal attacks and suicidal ideation in PBD although there has been little investigation on the same. The review shows that PBD is associated with higher risk of suicidal attempts and suicidal ideation. At least four out of five youths had in the past attempted to commit suicide while one out of two had suicidal ideation.

This showed that there is need for early identification of PBD for there to be enough psychosocial and pharmacologic treatment. Specific assessment should also be done to ensure that preventive actions are taken. Comment by Julie Davis: What showed? This all seems to come from the abstract. I do not understand what you understand? How, why, what are all questions that you want to answer in an analysis.

Hegerl, U., Rummel-Kluge, C., Värnik, A., Arensman, E., & Koburger, N. (2013). Alliances against depression - A community based approach to target depression and to prevent suicidal behaviour. Neuroscience and Bio behavioral Reviews, 37(10 Pt 1), 2404-2409. doi:10.1016/j.neubiorev.2013.02.009

The article acknowledges the fact that depression and fatal and non-fatal suicidal behaviour are very important issues in mental health. If preventive actions were taken to ensure that care and treatment was given to depressed people the rate of suicide could be reduced.

The strategies that were advised on being applied in order to reduce the number of suicide was education of physicians on the need of restricting access to lethal means that can be used to commit suicide, awareness campaigns, screening programs, treatment intervention and educating the media on the need of responsible behaviour when reporting suicide. The community based suicide prevention programs were also seen to contribute in preventing suicide. Other programs such as school based programs and elderly suicide prevention programs were also seen to contribute well.

The article was therefore of major importance to this topic of suicide as it clearly connected the need to control depression as discussed in class to reducing the number of suicides (Help Guide, 2016).. It also showed there is need to form community based programs that would achieve more because of the relationships that are formed in comparison to a hospital environment.

Saunders, K. E., & Hawton, K. (2013). Clinical assessment and crisis intervention for the suicidal bipolar disorder patient. Bipolar Disorders, 15(5), 575-583. doi:10.1111/bdi.12065

The article was a review of the suicidal behaviour in people with bipolar disorder. The leading cause of death in people with bipolar is suicide thus the need for this review. The review was meant to show the key strategies that can be used to assess, manage and highlight the ways that the cases of suicide can be prevented. The review was on literature review of various articles that dealt with bipolar disorder the risk factors and the management of the same.

The article took note that suicide is associated with depression and with a mixture of other states increases the risk of suicide. One of the strategies that was found vital is the need of an up to date crisis management plan to put in action in case of any suicide attempt.Timely clinical assessment was mentioned as an essential in order to identify when the risks of suicide are high. The removal of access to a means of committing suicide was also note as vital. All health management officials and relatives should also be given the information needed to ensure that management happens in all aspects of the patient’s life.

Bipolar disorder and other disorders need to be proactively managed and planned in order to avoid the occurrence of suicide. There are very many issues that need to be addressed in patients who have suicidal thoughts in order to prevent any attempts. There is however need to identify the specific intervention that are most efficient for every disorder in order to achieve higher rate of success in achieving zero suicides.

The objective of the article was to determine the factors that increase the risk of suicide and whether they differ with gender. The aim was to identify whether gender has any effect on the risks of suicide in people with mood disorder.

Anxiety was identified as a key factor of suicidal thought and severity of depression and anxiety should regularly be assessed. In women, it was observed that earlier cumulative trauma had a profound role in exacerbating later suicide risks. The review was however not clear on which gender is more prone to suicide attempts. Comment by Julie Davis: That is interesting. When I read this article, I get their impressions about the prevalence among gender. Are you reviewing the discussion section of the article?

The article was not clear on gender and the rate of suicide but research has shown that there are higher risk of suicide in men of certain ages than in women of certain ages. A report by the guardian show that the highest suicide rate is among men of 30-44. In men who were above 60 years old, the suicide rate was seen to be higher three folds than in women. Comment by Julie Davis: The guardian is not a scholarly resource. Moreover, you need to add much more depth in this area.
