The analysis of the research results indicates a significant physiological «cost» of labor, violations of both physical and mental health of medical personnel of different structural units of medical organizations. The authors emphasize the professional conditionality of health changes and emphasize the need for a special accounting system for this category of people.

Athletes with recent concussion experience a constellation of physical (e.g., headache, nausea), cognitive (e.g., memory problems, difficulty concentrating), sleep, and emotional (e.g., anxiety, depressed mood) symptoms after injury. Mental health changes may also be a product of typical maturation in adolescents/young adults, making mood disruption difficult to disentangle from concussion sequelae. In this case study, we present the case of a high-achieving 18-year-old female rower whose concussion clinical trajectory exhibits this type of difficulty. Specifically, we provide a detailed chronological summary of the athlete’s visits with a multidisciplinary concussion team. We highlight in this case study (a) an individualized, biopsychosocial model of concussion care and (b) subtle aspects of her clinical presentation that led the clinical team to transition her treatment focus from concussion specific to formal mental health care.

Abstract Scope and extent as well as duration of mental health and mental disorders are influenced by various factors, such as environmental factors. Environmental factors relate to physical, chemical and built environment. We aim to build knowledge by providing 1) a case study on perception of climate change and possibilities and limitations of adaptation, 2) a review on mental and neuropsychiatric disorders in the light of the SDGs framework and 3) give an overview of research methods both, in environmental epidemiology and in neuropsychiatric epidemiology. By bringing together the two fields of expertise and the members of the section of Environment and Health and of Public Mental health we will not only build bridges between individuals but between disciplines which might lead to a joint research agenda. Key messages The scope of mental health changes with changes in the environment. Knowledge provides a strong bridge to link the environment with mental disorders.

An increase of ongoing armed conflicts has resulted in substantial numbers of refugees around the world. The traumatic experiences refugees face can be detrimental to their mental health, further compounded by resettlement stressors upon arrival in Canada. This qualitative study incorporates an intersectional social determinants of health framework in order to understand the changes in mental health of refugees at different stages of a lifelong (re)settlement process. The findings of this study are informed by interviews with five service providers. Results indicated a number of salient post-migration factors that influence mental health in both the short and over the longer term for refugees and further elucidated the effects of a mutually-reinforcing relationship between resettlement stressors and trauma in mental health changes. Implications of the study findings reveal a critical need for a more psychosocial approach to be taken regarding refugee mental healthcare in future research as well as psychological interventions.
