The article presents the data on suicide incidence in Russian Federation.

BACKGROUND Background: Given the difficulty in accessing cognitive behavioral therapy, pharmacotherapy remains the standard of care for panic disorder (PD). OBJECTIVE Objectives: This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of videoconference-based cognitive behavioral therapy (VCBT) for patients who remain symptomatic after primary pharmacotherapy as an adjunct to usual care (UC) when compared with UC alone. METHODS Methods: This prospective, randomized, open-label endpoint trial enrolled 30 patients with PD who did not respond to primary pharmacotherapy, including antidepressants and anxiolytics, after ≥8 weeks of therapy, who underwent VCBT (n=15) or UC (n=15) between November 2017 and March 2020 at Chiba University Hospital in Chiba, Japan. They were evaluated at screening, week 0 (baseline), week 8 (mid-intervention), and week 16 (post-intervention). The primary outcome was the change in the PD Severity Scale (PDSS) score at week 16 from baseline. RESULTS Results: After 16 weeks, the adjusted mean changes in the PDSS score from baseline were −7.92 and 0.75 in the VCBT and UC groups, respectively, with a between-group difference of −8.67 (95% CI: −11.80 to −5.54, P<.0001). A higher proportion of patients in the VCBT group responded to treatment (≥40% reduction in the PDSS score at week 16) and experienced remission (PDSS score <8 points at week 8) than those in the UC group (P<.0001). CONCLUSIONS Conclusions: Our results suggest that VCBT is an effective treatment adjunct to UC in patients with PD who remain symptomatic following primary pharmacotherapy and improves PD symptoms in these patients.

Purpose: To evaluate the integration of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for depression and suicide prevention (CBT-SP) into social work practice with youth after a 2-day training and 3 months of group consultation. Method: A purposive sample of 22 clinical social workers completed a one-group pre–post and 3-month follow-up assessment to evaluate knowledge of CBT and CBT-SP, utilization, and barriers to utilization of CBT treatment and skills. Results: Knowledge of CBT and CBT-SP skills improved following training. All trainees integrated at least one new skill into practice and increased use of prior skills. No trainees integrated the full-manualized CBT-SP intervention into practice. Participation in group consultation increased the likelihood of integrating CBT-SP skills into practice for males and trainees with more practice experience. Discussion: The findings support the importance of training clinicians in common element skills of CBT and CBT-SP rather than only focusing upon integrating full-manualized treatments into social work practice.
