    Abstract We assessed the association between troponin levels and all-cause mortality in individuals with chest pain who presented to the Charleston Area Medical Center Emergency Department (CAMC). We identified adult patients with chest pain as defined in the International Classification of Diseases 10 (R07) family group from the CAMC data warehouse between June 6, 2020, and June 6, 2021. These cases required a visit to the emergency room. We created 3 different cohorts to assess the endpoints of all-cause mortality at 30 days and 6 months. Patients were divided into the following 3 categories: negative troponin level, defined as high sensitivity troponin I (HSTNI) assay ≤15 pg/mL for women and ≤20 pg/mL for men; weakly positive, 21-88 pg/mL for men and 16-88 pg/mL for women; and strongly positive, >88 pg/mL for men and women. A propensity score matching analysis was also conducted using the negative group as a control; the weakly and strongly positive groups were compared to the control across differing cardiology covariates. This study introduces novel cutoffs for high-sensitivity troponin I (Beckman Coulter assay, Beckman Coulter, Inc., Chaska Campus, 1000 Lake Hazeltine Drive, Chaska, Minnesota 55318).

    Abstract Objective: To assess the perceptions of mothers regarding child mental health problems, its causes, preferred treatment options, and to determine whom they would consult, if their child had a psychiatric illness.
    Methods: Following informed consent, a questionnaire covering perceptions regarding various aspects of child mental illness was used for data collection from mothers. They were asked to identify the symptoms and behaviours they considered psychopathological in children, which treatments they would prefer, where they would turn for help with a mentally ill child, and their understanding of the causes of child psychiatric disorders in addition to ways to increase awareness of child psychiatric issues in the society.
    Results: Ninety one mothers participated in the study. They equally perceived emotional, behavioural and cognitive symptoms as suggestive of mental ill health in childhood. Mothers perceived multiple causes of child mental health problems, including family problems, economic difficulties, social adversity and possession by evil spirits. A substantial proportion preferred medication, recitation of Holy Quran and psychotherapy as the preferred treatment options. Overall, mothers preferred consulting health professionals than religious scholars and faith healers. They were keen for steps to increase mental health awareness within their society.
    Conclusion: Despite different cultural perspective, mothers exhibit good understanding of symptoms of child mental health issues and appear open to various services and treatment options. Understanding parental perceptions and expectations from child psychiatric services are crucial in increasing families' engagement in treatment.

    Abstract Objective: The authors studied the prevalence of psychological morbidity, sources and severity of stresses, as well as coping strategies in Pakistani medical students.
    Methods: Medical students in Lahore, Pakistan, completed a cross-sectional, self-administered questionnaire in 2013 on the sources and severity of various stressors. The General Health Questionnaire-12 (GHQ-12) and Brief COPE assessed the psychological morbidity and coping strategies.
    Results: Out of 1500 students, 527 responded to the survey. The prevalence of psychological morbidity was 23.3%; 52.3% respondents showed evidence of distress. By logistic regression analysis, GHQ-12 caseness was associated with being male and occurrence of health-related stressors. The most common stressors were related to academic concerns. Coping strategies showed variation by GHQ-caseness.
    Conclusion: The significant psychological morbidity and distress warrants establishing support systems to support students and bringing about evidence-based changes to teaching and evaluation systems. Adequate counseling facilities should be made available and students encouraged to seek help.
