Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on mental health research, including the risk of dementia in bipolar disorder, mental health trends in urban populations, addiction care innovations, and optimizing psychopharmacological treatments through therapeutic drug monitoring and pharmacogenomic testing. It also covers the association between urban planning and mental health, tobacco cessation strategies enhanced by artificial intelligence, and the assessment of addictive behaviors using AI and machine learning. Further topics include lifestyle and psychotherapy interventions for bipolar disorder in older adults, the validation of digital biomarkers, the application of large language models in substance use disorder interventions, and the epidemiology of substance use in older-age bipolar disorder. The journal also addresses drug surveillance, the global recognition of hikikomori, the impact of digital environments on youth mental health, violence risk in schizophrenia, and the role of telemedicine and digital mental health in urban healthcare.
