The aim of this scoping review was to synthesize published studies and ongoing clinical trials of psychological interventions for mental health problems associated with COVID-19 infection. The study protocol was developed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) Extension for Scoping Reviews. We conducted systematic searches for studies published or registered between January 2020 and October 2022 using eight scientific databases and clinical trial registries, which identified 40 complete published studies and 53 ongoing clinical trials. We found that most studies were randomized controlled trials (74%) while the remaining used study designs of lower methodological quality. Most studies investigated interventions for acute COVID-19 patients (74%) and others explored post-COVID conditions (PCC) or recovered patients. Cognitive and behavioral therapies were the main intervention approaches (31%), followed by multidisciplinary programs (21%) and mindfulness (17%). The most frequently evaluated outcomes were anxiety (33%), depression (26%), quality of life (13%), and insomnia (10%). No studies on youths, older people, or marginalized communities were found. These findings summarize the burgeoning research on a range of psychological interventions for individuals infected with COVID-19. However, the field is in its infancy and further research to develop an evidence base for targeted care is necessary. The gaps identified in the current study also highlight the need for more research on youths, older people, and members of marginalized communities, and PCC patients. It is important to ascertain interventions and delivery strategies that are not only effective and affordable but also allow high scalability and accessibility.

Background: Hoarding disorder (HD) is characterized by cognitive control impairments and abnormal brain activity in the insula and anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) during disposal of personal items or certain executive function tasks. However, whether there are any changes in resting-state functional connectivity of the insula and ACC remains unclear. Methods: A total of 55 subjects, including 24 patients with HD and 31 healthy controls (HCs), participated in the study. We acquired resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging data and examined group differences in functional connectivity from the insula and ACC in whole-brain voxels. Results: In patients with HD, functional connectivity was significantly lower between the right insula and right inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) and left superior temporal gyrus (STG) compared to HCs. There was no correlation between these connectivities and HD symptoms. Conclusions: Although the clinical implication is uncertain, our results suggest that patients with HD have resting-state functional alterations between the insula and IFG and STG, corresponding with the results of previous fMRI studies. These findings provide new insight into the neurobiological basis of HD.

This retrospective cohort study examined the incidence of post-COVID psychiatric disorders in older adults according to hospitalization status and SARS-CoV-2 variant period in Japan. Claims data, COVID-19 case-related information, and vaccination records were obtained from three Japanese municipalities. We identified individuals aged ≥65 years who had COVID-19 or other respiratory tract infection (RTI) between March 2021 and December 2022. Participants were categorized into non-hospitalized and hospitalized patients, and the study period was divided into the Alpha (March to May 2021), Delta (June to December 2021), Omicron BA.1/BA.2 (January to June 2022), and Omicron BA.5 (July to December 2022) periods. Modified Poisson regression analyses were performed to estimate the incidence rate ratios (IRRs) for the occurrence of psychiatric disorders (organic mental disorders, psychotic disorders, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, and insomnia) three months after COVID-19 (reference: other RTI). For overall psychiatric disorders, we analyzed 19,489 non-hospitalized patients (COVID-19: 6,728, Other RTI: 12,761) and 2925 hospitalized patients (COVID-19: 1,036, Other RTI: 1889). When compared with other RTI cases, COVID-19 cases had significantly lower IRRs for overall psychiatric disorders in both non-hospitalized (IRR: 0.59, P < 0.001) and hospitalized cases (IRR: 0. 83, P = 0.045) during the Omicron BA.1/BA.2 period, but only in non-hospitalized cases (IRR: 0.45, P < 0.001) during the Omicron BA.5 period. The incidences of the individual post-COVID psychiatric disorders varied according to disorder type, hospitalization status, and SARS-CoV-2 variant period. These findings provide a foundation for further research to explore these variations and improve the provision of psychiatric care in future epidemics.

Background: The associations between COVID-19 vaccination and post-COVID psychiatric disorders are unclear. Furthermore, it is uncertain if these associations differ depending on the dominant SARS-CoV-2 variant at the time of infection. This retrospective cohort study aimed to clarify the associations between COVID-19 vaccination and incident psychiatric disorders after breakthrough infection according to the different variant periods in Japan. Methods: Medical claims data, COVID-19 case-related information, and vaccination records were collected from three Japanese municipalities. The study population comprised public insurance enrollees aged ≥65 years who developed COVID-19 between June 2021 and December 2022. The study exposure was each participant's vaccination status 14 days before infection, and the outcomes were the occurrence of psychiatric disorders within three months of infection. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to calculate the odds ratios (ORs) and 95 % confidence intervals (CIs) of vaccination for the occurrence of psychiatric disorders. Analyses were conducted for the Delta period (June to December 2021), Omicron BA.1/BA.2 period (January to June 2022), and Omicron BA.5 period (July to December 2022). Results: We analyzed 270 participants (vaccinated: 149) in the Delta period, 2,963 participants (vaccinated: 2,699) in the Omicron BA.1/BA.2 period, and 7,723 participants (vaccinated: 7,159) in the Omicron BA.5 period. During the Delta period, vaccinated participants had significantly lower odds for psychotic disorders (OR: 0.23, 95 % CI: 0.06–0.88, P = 0.032) than unvaccinated participants. During the Omicron BA.5 period, vaccinated participants had significantly lower odds for organic mental disorders (OR: 0.54, 95 % CI: 0.30–0.95, P = 0.033), psychotic disorders (OR: 0.31, 95 % CI: 0.19–0.53, P < 0.001), mood disorders (OR: 0.53, 95 % CI: 0.29–0.99, P = 0.046), and insomnia (OR: 0.48, 95 % CI: 0.32–0.72, P < 0.001) than unvaccinated participants. There were no significant differences in psychiatric disorders between the vaccinated and unvaccinated groups during the Omicron BA.1/BA.2 period. Conclusions: This is the first study to demonstrate that the associations between COVID-19 vaccination and post-COVID psychiatric disorders vary among the different variant periods. Future studies on these associations should be conducted with consideration to the prevalent circulating variants.

Gyrification patterns ref lect early neurodevelopment and could be highly heritable. While some discrepant results have been reported, the most consistent finding was that patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder showed altered gyrification patterns in the orbitofrontal cortex. Nevertheless, no study has investigated the alterations in gyrification in unaffected first-degree relatives of patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder. We measured local gyrification by the FreeSurfer software in 23 unaffected first-degree relatives of patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder and 52 healthy control participants. We explored differences in the local gyrification index using vertex-wise whole-brain analysis and a region of interest-based approach in the medial and lateral orbitofrontal cortex. There was no significant difference in the local gyrification index between the 2 groups in the vertex-wise whole-brain analysis. Region of interest analyses showed that, compared with healthy controls, first-degree relatives showed significantly reduced local gyrification index in the left medial and lateral orbitofrontal cortex. A negative correlation was observed between the reduced local gyrification index in lateral orbitofrontal cortex and the subclinical anxiety scores of first-degree relatives. Our results showed that first-degree relatives of patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder had an altered local gyrification index in the orbitofrontal cortex. Especially, reduced local gyrification index in lateral orbitofrontal cortex associated with subclinical anxiety symptom could be a potential neurodevelopmental marker for the illness onset.

Previous studies have suggested that specific fronto-striatal circuits are associated with impaired motor response inhibition in patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and their relatives. However, no study has investigated the underlying resting-state network associated with motor response inhibition in the unaffected first-degree relatives of patients with OCD. We measured motor response inhibition using stop-signal task, and obtained resting-state fMRI in 23 first-degree relatives and 52 healthy control participants. We explored the group differences in the functional network from seed regions-of-interest (ROIs) associated with motor response inhibition abilities. We used the inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) and pre-supplementary motor area (pre-SMA) as seed-ROIs. A significant group difference was observed in functional connectivity between the pre-SMA and inferior parietal lobule. In the relative group, reduced functional connectivity between these areas was associated with a longer stop-signal reaction time. Additionally, relatives showed significantly greater functional connectivity between the IFG and SMA, precentral, and postcentral areas. Our results could provide new insights into the resting-state neural activity of the pre-SMA underlying impaired motor response inhibition of unaffected first-degree relatives. In addition, our results suggested that relatives have an altered connectivity of the sensorimotor region, similar to that of patients with OCD shown in previous literature.

Quarantine imposed due to COVID-19 infection can exacerbate psychological distress, and it is important for a public mental health agency to identify factors that are predictive of high psychological distress in such situation. The aim of this study was to investigate whether gender, age, and the presence or absence of infectious disease symptoms affected psychological distress among asymptomatic or mildly ill COVID-19 patients who were quarantined. Participants were 436 asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic COVID-19-infected patients who were quarantined in a treatment facility between 1 May 2020 and 30 September 2021. We used Quantification Theory I analysis to investigate the effects of gender, age, and the nature of infectious disease symptoms on psychological distress. The results of the analysis showed that the contribution rate was 0.06. Among gender, age, presence of symptoms, and the nature of symptoms, age had the greatest effect on psychological distress, and being in one’s teens to thirties was considered to exacerbate psychological distress the most. According to the results, the psychological distress of asymptomatic and mildly symptomatic COVID-19 patients isolated was affected by gender, age, and symptomology, especially due to age differences. However, the impact of these items on psychological distress was not considered significant.

Background: Symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) have been conceptualized as manifestations of decision-making deficits. Patients with OCD exhibit impairment during the decision-making process, as assessed by the Iowa Gambling Task (IGT). This impairment is independent of clinical severity and disease progression. However, the association between the decision-making deficit and resting-state brain activity of patients with OCD has not been examined. Methods: Fifty unmedicated patients with OCD and 55 matched control subjects completed IGT. Resting-state brain activity was examined using the fractional amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations (fALFFs). fALFF analysis focused on the slow-4 and 5 bands. Group comparisons were performed to determine the association between IGT performance and fALFFs. Results: There was a significant group difference in the association between the IGT total net score and slow-4 fALFFs in the left putamen (voxel height threshold of p < 0.001; cluster size threshold of p < 0.05; family wise error-corrected). Higher putamen slow-4 fALFFs were correlated with lower IGT scores for OCD patients (r = −0.485; p < 0.0005) and higher IGT scores for control subjects (r = 0.402; p < 0.005). There was no group difference in the association between the IGT total net score and slow-5 fALFFs. Conclusions: These findings in unmedicated patients demonstrate the importance of resting-state putamen activity for decision-making deficit associated with OCD, as measured by IGT. The inverse correlation may be explained by the hypersensitive response of the putamen in patients with OCD.

Although preliminary neuroimaging research suggests that patients with hoarding disorder (HD) show widespread abnormal task-related activity in the brain, there has been no research on alterations in the white matter tracts in these patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the characteristics of the major white matter tracts in patients with HD. Tract-based spatial statistics were used to search for white matter tract abnormalities throughout the brain in 25 patients with HD and 36 healthy controls. Post hoc analysis of regions of interest was performed to detect correlations with clinical features. Compared with the controls, patients with HD showed decreased fractional anisotropy and increased radial diffusivity in anatomically widespread white matter tracts. Post hoc analysis of regions of interest revealed a significant negative correlation between the severity of hoarding symptoms and fractional anisotropy in the left anterior limb of the internal capsule and a positive correlation between the severity of these symptoms and radial diffusivity in the right anterior thalamic radiation. Patients with HD showed a broad range of alterations in the frontal white matter tracts, including the frontothalamic circuit, frontoparietal network, and frontolimbic pathway. The findings of this study indicate associations between frontal white matter abnormalities related to the severity of hoarding symptoms in HD and the cortical regions involved in cognitive dysfunction. The insights provided would be useful for understanding the neurobiological basis of HD.

Recent evidence suggests that presupplementary motor area (pre-SMA) and inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) play an important role in response inhibition. However, no study has investigated the relationship between these brain networks at resting-state and response inhibition in obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD). We performed resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging scans and then measured the response inhibition of 41 medication-free OCD patients and 49 healthy control (HC) participants by using the stop-signal task outside the scanner. We explored the differences between OCD and HC groups in the functional connectivity of pre-SMA and IFG associated with the ability of motor response inhibition. OCD patients showed a longer stop-signal reaction time (SSRT). Compared to HC, OCD patients exhibit different associations between the ability of motor response inhibition and the functional connectivity between pre-SMA and IFG, inferior parietal lobule, dorsal anterior cingulate cortex, insula, and anterior prefrontal cortex. Additional analysis to investigate the functional connectivity difference from the seed ROIs to the whole brain voxels revealed that, compared to HC, OCD exhibited greater functional connectivity between pre-SMA and IFG. Also, this functional connectivity was positively correlated with the SSRT score. These results provide additional insight into the characteristics of the resting-state functional connectivity of the regions belonging to the cortico-striato-thalamo-cortical circuit and the cingulo-opercular salience network, underlying the impaired motor response inhibition of OCD. In particular, we emphasize the importance of altered functional connectivity between pre-SMA and IFG for the pathophysiology of motor response inhibition in OCD.

強迫症(Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder : OCD)の生涯有病率は1~3%といわれ、10~20歳代という小児期、青年期で発症することも多く、適切な治療を受けることが無いまま長期間経過してしまうものも少なくない。1960年代に三環系抗うつ薬であるclomipramineが本疾患の治療薬として有効であることが確認され、1990年代には選択的セロトニン取り込み阻害薬（selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor : SSRI）の有効性も確立された。現在ではSSRIによる薬物療法は各種治療ガイドラインにおいて認知行動療法とともにfirst lineの治療法として推奨されている。しかしSSRIによる治療に反応する症例は50~60％で、OCDには難治例が存在している事も事実である。この難治例に対し、近年では高用量SSRIに第二世代抗精神病薬を併用する増強療法の有効性が証明されつつあり、本疾患の病態生理はセロトニン神経系だけではなく、ドパミン機能の障害も推測されるようになった。
　さらに最近の研究により、NMDA受容体のアゴニストの一つであるグルタミン酸に関する知見やNMDA受容体機能調整薬に関する臨床研究の結果も集積してきている。そこで本発表では、これらの知見を中心に紹介し、OCDに対する新たな治療戦略の可能性を考えたい。

入院治療のメリットは,(1)患者の生活を治療者が直接観察し,認知行動療法を実施する際にどのような技法を用いて介入を行うか決定するための「患者の見立て」をより正確に行うことができること,(2)直接観察で得た情報を繰り返し面接で話題にすることで,患者が病識を得ることが進むこと,(3)強迫症状の悪化維持要因の一つである家族・支援者の「巻き込み」から患者を切り離すことができること,が挙げられる。患者の退院後の病状悪化を防ぐために,外来治療では十分な時間が確保しにくい家族・支援者に対する心理教育に時間をかけて実施できるという利点もある。その結果,強迫症状を患者と家族・支援者から切り離して外在化し,治療者を含むこれら三者が治療チームとして機能することで治療のさらなる進展が期待できる。(著者抄録)

＜文献概要＞新型コロナウイルス感染症(COVID-19)による罹患後症状は,罹患後に発生するさまざまな心身の不調である。罹患後症状には,疲労感や倦怠感,関節痛,筋肉痛,咳や息切れといったものがよくみられるが,不安やうつの出現も報告されている。海外の調査結果から,不安,抑うつといった精神症状の出現頻度はCOVID-19罹患後に高まることが示唆された。一方で長期フォローの結果は,他の呼吸器疾患と同レベルに収束することを示しており,罹患後の精神症状は,感染による心理的側面の要因が強い可能性もある。本邦では精神症状に焦点をあてた罹患後症状の大規模調査の結果はまだ報告されていないが,筆者らが行ったCOVID-19の入院患者の精神症状調査の結果からは,感染期から不安,うつ,不眠,混乱といった症状の出現頻度が増えていることが明らかになった。罹患後症状としての精神症状がウイルスの直接的な影響なのか,心理的要因が大きいかについては,今後の疫学研究や生物学的研究の蓄積が待たれる。
