“…Loneliness is associated with increased rates of both depression and suicide. 9 These relationships demonstrate significant interdependence. Harmful behaviours associated with increased mortality are more common in those who are lonely or isolated.…”

“…6 Individuals who experience loneliness or social isolation have an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (social isolation relative risk [RR] ¼ 1.29, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.04-1.59, p ¼ 0.02), stroke (social isolation RR ¼ 1.32, 95% CI 1.04-1.68, p ¼ 0.02) and all-cause mortality (loneliness hazard ratio [HR] ¼ 1.22, 95% CI 1.10-1.35, p < 0.001). 2,7,8 They are more likely to be diagnosed with depression 9 and dementia, 10 and suffer from multimorbidity. 11 Efforts to reduce loneliness and social isolation are therefore a high priority to the UK government as reflected by the appointment of the first minister for loneliness in 2018.…”

To conduct a systematic review and develop a conceptual framework on the mechanisms linking loneliness, social isolation, health outcomes and mortality. Electronic databases were systematically searched (PubMed, MEDLINE, Scopus and EMBASE) from inception to October 2018 followed by manual searching to identify research on loneliness, social isolation and mortality in adults published in the English language. Articles were assessed for quality and synthesised into a conceptual framework using meta-ethnographical approaches. A total of 122 articles were included. These collated observational designs examining mediators and moderations of the association in addition to qualitative studies exploring potential mechanisms were included. A framework incorporating 18 discrete factors implicated in the association between loneliness, social isolation and mortality was developed. Factors were categorised into societal or individual, and sub-categorised into biological, behavioural and psychological. These findings emphasise the complex multidirectional relationship between loneliness, social isolation and mortality. Our conceptual framework may allow development of more holistic interventions, targeting many of the interdependent factors that contribute to poor outcomes for lonely and socially isolated people.

Purpose: The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between the loneliness and depression levels of students studying at Inonu University, Faculty of Health Sciences, Departments of Nursing, Midwifery, Physiotherapy, Audiology and Child Development and the factors that affect these levels. Design and Methods:This descriptive cross-sectional study which used a sociodemographic information form, the UCLA Loneliness Scale and the Beck Depression Inventory included 1004 students.Findings: According to the results of the research, there was a positive relationship between loneliness and depression levels among university students. Class year, family type, place of residence, mother's education level, and economic situation were important indicators of loneliness and depression.Practice Implications: Psychiatric nurses can help students express their psychological difficulties and help them change their behaviors and lifestyles.

“…[ 1 – 4 ] It is worth noting that depression emotion can make these students feel desperate [ 5 ] and unwilling to seek outside help; [ 6 ] resulting in easily delaying the disease treatment and even suicidal behavior. [ 7 ] Therefore, it is of extreme importance to find acceptive and effective interventions that can improve mental health problems such as depression in college students.…”

Background: Non-pharmacological intervention methods such as rehabilitation training or psychological treatment are mostly used in the treatment of depression owing to the limitation of adverse reactions such as drug treatment. However, the best non-pharmacological treatment strategy for depression in college students is unclear. Therefore, it is significant to discover non-drug intervention methods that can improve the depression symptoms of college students. Method: Electronic databases as of Sep 15, 2019, were searched, and reference lists and pharmaceutical dossiers were reviewed to detect published and unpublished studies from the date of their inception to Sep 15, 2019. With document quality evaluations and data extraction, Meta-Analysis was performed using a random effect model to evaluate the intervention effect of the aerobic exercise, traditional Chinese exercises, and meditation. Results: A total of 44 original studies were included. The random effect model was used to combine the effect values with Standard Mean Difference (SMD), and the results were: aerobic exercise [SMD = –0.53, 95% CI (–0.77, –0.30), I2 = 80%, P < .001], traditional Chinese exercises [SMD = –0.42, 95% CI (–0.74, –0.10), I2 = 90%, P = .01], meditation [SMD = –0.51, 95% CI (–0.90, –0.12), I2 = 79%, P = .01]. There was greater heterogeneity among the included studies: aerobic exercise (I2 = 80%, P < .001), traditional Chinese medicine methods (I2 = 90%, P < .001), and meditation (I2 = 79%, P < .001). Conclusions: This study revealed that the depression symptoms of college students can be effectively improved by aerobic exercise, traditional Chinese exercises, and meditation. Aerobic exercise would have a better effect on anxiety and stress while traditional Chinese exercise would have a better effect on stress. Further research (such as high-quality randomized controlled trials and long-term follow-up) is required to evaluate the effects of aerobic exercise, traditional Chinese exercise, and meditation on the depressive symptoms of college students to further apply complementary and alternative therapies. Ethics and dissemination: The results of the effects of aerobic exercise, traditional Chinese exercises, and meditation on depressive symptoms for a college student will be reported in a peer-reviewed publication. Hopefully, our findings from this meta-analysis can provide the most up-to-date evidence for the contribution to preventing the occurrence of depressive symptoms in college students.
