Electricity treatment can reduce the risk of suicide in depression

In a newly published scientific review, results have been revealed that can cause a shift in understanding the effectiveness of electric (caricing socks) treatment in people with severe depression, as this type of treatment has been found to reduce the risk of suicide by 34% compared to traditional treatments such as anti -depressants. This review, published in neuroscience applied, is the first of its kind to collect and systematically analyze the latest evidence from previous studies to prove a concrete correlation between electrical drugs, and the decline in suicide rates and general deaths among people with treatment resistance. The researchers evaluated the effect of three types of neurological treatments on suicide ideas and behavior in patients with severe depression, including electric emptiness, regular magnetic stimulation and stimulating vague nerve. Electricity therapy is a medical procedure used to treat severe depression, and other psychological disorders by passing on short electric streams, and disciplining the brain to stimulate a short and controlled attack, leading to changes in brain chemistry that believes it contributes to improving mood and relieving symptoms. This treatment is performed under general anesthesia and under the supervision of a specialized medical team, and it is usually used when acute cases do not respond to other treatments such as medication or psychotherapy, and this is effectively proven, especially in cases involving suicidal tendencies or treatment resistant depression. From 1352 primary scientific studies examined, the researchers chose 26 studies in which accurate quality standards and strict conditions for inclusion, including detailed documentation of the treatment method, suicide rates, deaths and suicide ideas. According to the data collected from 11 studies that took especially electrical drugs, the results of the treatment of 17890 patients were analyzed, and this treatment was compared to the results of 25,367 patients who received traditional care, such as drug therapy. The results showed that the number of suicide cases in the electrical wave treatment group reached 208 cases, compared to 988 cases in the traditional care group, and 511 deaths were recorded in the electrical wave group for any reason, compared to 1325 cases in the other group. These numbers are translated into a 34% decrease in the risk of suicide, and a 30% dropped with the risk of public death among patients who have received electrical drugs. The benefits of electrical imagination and these results indicate that the benefits of electrical wave can go beyond mental health, and it can expand to improve opportunities to survive in general, which has urged some experts to ask if this treatment has an indirect impact on improving overall health indicators. However, the co -author of author Martin Balsb Yorgensen, a researcher at the University of Copenhagen, believes that this impact on deaths is not possible due to a “hidden mechanism that extends age”, but rather as a “selective choice for patients” within the studies, which limits the generalization of these results. The researchers believe that electrical wave therapy has developed over the decades, which means that recent studies, often wider and more accurate than old, have shown more benefits than those recorded by previous research, especially that modern electrical drugs are more effective than in the past, which means that the rate of reduction of suicide is higher than 34% in contemporary applications. The researchers recognize the limitations of this review, as the majority of the studies included in the analysis were not attentive, not experimental, reducing the strength of the guide; Due to the sensitivity of the psychological condition of patients with severe depression, the execution of long -term clinical experiments can be practical and practical, making the reliance on perceived data a necessity, not an option. As for the other two treatment in the study-regular magnetic stimulation through the skull, and the motivation of the vague nerve- the results were more conservative, the data related to the first was limited, and small studies showed no effect on suicide rates or suicide figures, which means the effect of this type of neurological stimulation has not yet been proven. Repeated magnetic stimulation by casting the skull by casting regular and painless magnetic impulses to specific parts of the brain, especially the front stroke, to stimulate nervous activity and improve the mood, and are usually performed without anesthesia and outpatient clinics. As for the vague nerve, it showed a significant decrease in the death rate for any cause by 60%, but the small number of participants in the studies involved make it difficult to trust this result or spread it on a larger scale. The motivation of the vague nerve includes the implantation of a small surgical apparatus under the skin in the chest area, which sends regular electrical impulses to the vague nerve that extends from the brain to parts of the body, which helps to adjust the nervous activity associated with depression. The possibilities of electrical remedies This study forms an important development in understanding the possibilities of electrical drugs, especially as this type of treatment has been facing a negative reputation in the media and public opinion for decades, and this treatment is often portrayed as a violent or inhuman action, although it has developed in the thirties, which is not an amount to become one of the effective treatments in cases. International medical bodies, including the American Psychiatry Association, confirm that the ElectricalGottag, when used according to the approved protocols and is used under the supervision of specialists, safe and effective. The results of this study are given extra interest in the light of the global mental health crisis, which according to the World Health Organization is increasingly increasing year after year, more than 300 million people around the world to depression, a 20% increase during the decade between 2005 and 2015. Corona’s pandemic has worsened the situation, with the associated social isolation, economic pressure and health. The sloping of the world was. The suicide is the fourth cause of death among young people between the ages of 15 and 29, and about half of the suicide worldwide is related to mood disorders, especially depression. But despite the cautious optimism that broadcast the results of this study, the questions are still many. How can it be guaranteed to use electrical remedy in a fair and safe way for all patients?, Will health systems in developing countries- that can already suffer from a lack of mental health services- this kind of treatment? And what about the potential side effects such as temporary memory loss or confusion, which sometimes register after the sessions?
