TLDR
This work shows that otherwise healthy, unmedicated patients with these disorders display reduced resting-state HRV, and that pharmacological treatments do not ameliorate these reductions, and proposes a working model for the effects of mood disorders, comorbid conditions, and their treatments to help guide future research activities.About:

Blunted autonomic reactivity to pharmacological panic challenge under long-term escitalopram treatment in healthy men.
Agorastos Agorastos,Michael Kellner,Oliver Stiedl,Christoph Muhtz,Klaus Wiedemann,Cüneyt Demiralay +5 more
TL;DR: Findings support findings suggesting an effect of SSRI treatment on autonomic regulation and provide evidence that ESC treatment is associated with blunted autonomic reactivity in healthy men.

A Practitioner's Guide to Breathwork in Clinical Mental Health Counseling
TL;DR: Breathwork techniques and therapies offer a set of practical interventions for clinical mental health counselors (CMHCs) and are viable methods for integrating physiological sensitivities in treating mental health disorders.

Specificity of resting-state heart rate variability in psychosis: A comparison with clinical high risk, anxiety, and healthy controls.
TL;DR: The activity of the autonomic nervous system was altered in psychosis but not in an at-risk group, and a potential specificity of the effect can be speculated in contrast to anxiety disorders.

Using Real-time Biofeedback of Heart Rate Variability Measures to Track and Help Improve Levels of Attention and Relaxation
TL;DR: Investigation of real-time biofeedback of heart rate variability, recorded from a heart rate monitor watch, suggests that it is possible to estimate levels of attention and relaxation, at least at a crude level, and that the interaction design of the application has a very important role to play in supporting user engagement and to maintain motivation levels.

Prevalence, Severity, and Comorbidity of 12-Month DSM-IV Disorders in the National Comorbidity Survey Replication
TL;DR: Although mental disorders are widespread, serious cases are concentrated among a relatively small proportion of cases with high comorbidity, as shown in the recently completed US National Comorbidities Survey Replication.

Projections of Global Mortality and Burden of Disease from 2002 to 2030
Colin Mathers,Dejan Loncar +1 more
TL;DR: These projections represent a set of three visions of the future for population health, based on certain explicit assumptions, which enable us to appreciate better the implications for health and health policy of currently observed trends, and the likely impact of fairly certain future trends.

From inflammation to sickness and depression: when the immune system subjugates the brain
TL;DR: In response to a peripheral infection, innate immune cells produce pro-inflammatory cytokines that act on the brain to cause sickness behaviour, which can lead to an exacerbation of sickness and the development of symptoms of depression in vulnerable individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI
The inflammatory reflex
TL;DR: The discovery that cholinergic neurons inhibit acute inflammation has qualitatively expanded understanding of how the nervous system modulates immune responses, and the opportunity now exists to apply this insight to the treatment of inflammation through selective and reversible 'hard-wired' neural systems.

Global burden of disease and injury and economic cost attributable to alcohol use and alcohol-use disorders.
Jürgen Rehm,Colin Mathers,Svetlana Popova,Svetlana Popova,Montarat Thavorncharoensap,Montarat Thavorncharoensap,Yot Teerawattananon,Jayadeep Patra +7 more
TL;DR: The burden of mortality and disease attributable to alcohol, both globally and for ten large countries, is quantified and concludes that alcohol consumption is one of the major avoidable risk factors, and actions to reduce burden and costs associated with alcohol should be urgently increased.
