Veterans returning from the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts, referred to as Operation Enduring Freedom/Operation Iraqi Freedom (OEF/OIF) Veterans, may be particularly at risk, although the limited available data has shown mixed results. Several aspects of military experience may increase the risk of suicide, including mental health and substance abuse. Many risk factors specific to the OEF/OIF population have yet to be thoroughly evaluated and incorporated into clinical management. Ideally, suicide risk assessment tools need to account for the relationship among different risk factors and identify risk factors or combinations of risk factors that are particularly associated with suicidal self-directed violence. To be practically useful, such tools will be brief enough to be conducted in a primary care setting and will identify a threshold beyond which preventive action should be taken. Risk assessment tools should be able to discriminate those at high- and low-risk for suicidal self-directed violence. Likewise, studies of emerging risk factors need to evaluate the contribution of a new potential predictor of suicide and self-directed violence in the context of known risk factors in order to weigh the contribution of the new risk factor against those that are currently known. The objective of this report is to review recent evidence about risk factors and risk assessment tools within Veteran and military populations to provide evidence for clinical practice guideline development specific to these populations.Evidence-based synthesis program (Series)Suicide risk factors and risk assessment toolsSuicideRisk factorsUnited StatesfastSuicideRisk factors.616.858445Haney Elizabeth M.1353457United States.Department of Veterans Affairs.Health Services Research and Development Service,Quality Enhancement Research Initiative (U.S.)Portland VA Medical Center.Evidence-based Synthesis Program Center.Evidence-based Synthesis Program (U.S.)NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910717370403321Suicide risk factors and risk assessment tools3254409UNINA05386nam 2201393z- 450 991055728850332120210501(CKB)5400000000041155(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/68624(oapen)doab68624(EXLCZ)99540000000004115520202105d2020 |y 0engurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierHuman African Trypanosomiasis (Sleeping Sickness)The Road to Elimination Revisited-Achievements and Remaining ChallengesBasel, SwitzerlandMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute20201 online resource (280 p.)3-03928-963-2 3-03928-964-0 As it is a goal to eliminate human African trypanosomiasis (HAT; sleeping sickness) as a public health problem by 2020 and interrupt transmission by 2030, this is a good moment to reflect on what we have achieved, what we want to achieve, and what could get in our way. HAT has a reputation for spectacular reappearances, and the latest peak of 40,000 reported and over 300,000 estimated cases only dates back to 1998. Efforts of the WHO and partners as well as the development of simpler and much better-tolerated treatments, improved diagnostics, and vector control tools made it possible to reduce this number by 95%. Case identification and confirmation remain complex and require specific skills, treatment remains error-prone and reports on long-term survivors have emerged, and the relevance of the animal reservoir for T. b. gambiense HAT needs clarification. In addition, to win the "end game" against this massively stigmatized disease, the human factor will play a key role. This Special Issue addresses many of the burning topics about disease elimination in its 12 research and 7 review articles and one case study. The papers critically reflect the approaches used, investigate the mentioned challenges, and propose novel approaches and interventions from various points of view.Human African Trypanosomiasis Epidemiology and Medical statisticsbicsscMedicine and Nursingbicssc(+)-spectalineacoziboroleactive follow-up strategyadverse eventAfrican sleeping sicknessAfrican trypanosomiasisanimal reservoirsapoptosisassociation studyautophagyblood-brain barrierbrain permeabilitycase detectionCATT positive serological suspectschemotherapyclinical researchcross-talkdevelopment of treatmentdiagnosisdisease eliminationdisease eradicationdonor policyDR Congodrug discoverydrug resistancedrugseliminationembodimentencephalopathyeradicationexpertisefexinidazoleflagellar pocketfrontline workersg-HATHaemoparasiteshealth system strengtheninghigh-throughput screeninghistoryhome-based treatmenthuman Africa trypanosomiasishuman African trypanosomiasisHuman African Trypanosomiasis (HAT)human leukocyte antigenironiso-6-spectalinemedical historymedical innovationmelarsoprolmobile screeningmydriasisn/aneglected tropical diseasesneurological signsnutritional immunityoligosymptomatic HATpafuramidinepatient-centred carepharmacologyphenotypic drug screeningpolitical historyproduct development partnershipsqualitative methodsr-HATre-emergenceresearch and developmentsequelaeserendipityserologysleeping sicknessSouth SudansuraminsymptomsT. b. gambienseT. b. rhodesiensetransferrintransferrin receptortreatmenttreatment-seekingtrypanosoma bruceiTrypanosoma bruceiTrypanosoma brucei rhodesienseTrypanosoma growth inhibitorstrypanosomosisUgandaEpidemiology and Medical statisticsMedicine and NursingBurri Christianedt1330862Burri ChristianothBOOK9910557288503321Human African Trypanosomiasis (Sleeping Sickness)3039989UNINA
