“…Mental health promotion and primary prevention is a recent focus. Human resource deficits and paucity of funding resulting from unequal resource distribution between states have had an adverse impact on service provision and research (Fisher & Chandra, 2019; Kommu & Jacob, 2020; Ransing, Agrawal, Bagul, & Pevekar, 2020).…”

Introduction This study aims to review recent scientific publications and research output in the field of psychiatry, from a series of countries in the Asia‐Pacific region (Australia, India, Indonesia, Iran, Lebanon, Malaysia, and Nepal), with a view to identify themes and similarities across regions, as well as to examine the barriers and challenges in mental health research faced by countries in the region. Methods Seven psychiatrists from seven countries reviewed recent published and ongoing research in psychiatry in their respective nations, with respect to themes, as well as any barriers or challenges faced by mental health researchers. Results While the seven nations included in this review vary in terms of research capabilities and economic development level, they share many similarities both in terms of research direction, and with regards to challenges faced. Limitations in the form of sociocultural differences from the West, and a lack of funding were some of the barriers identified. Discussion Mental health research in the region has been progressing well. However, more varied research in the form of qualitative or economic studies are lacking, as are multi‐center studies. The similar issues that nations face with regards to research could perhaps benefit from collaborative efforts and initiatives for the furtherance of research in the region.

“…It seems to apply to arts, sports, and most professional activities. The various papers in this issue [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] of ECAP offer a perspective on how our trainees in Europe as well as other parts of the world spend their 10,000 h. They offer an overview of differences and similarities in length and content of training, but also on how we guide our trainees through their personal and professional development and help them spend those 10.000 h in the most productive and fruitful way to prepare to attend to children's mental health needs in the future.…”

“…WHO has defined health as "A state of complete physical, mental, and social wellbeing not merely the absence of disease or infirmity." 2 HRQOL is a subjective measure of one's health status, mostly based on the individual, and also focuses more on the impact of a perceived health state on the ability to live a fulfilling life. 3 From a health (or disease) perspective, the term 'quality of life' refers to patients' social, emotional, and physical well-being following treatment.…”

To identify currently available measures of Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) for intellectually disabled children and to describe their content. A comprehensive retrieval of the English literature from 2001 to 2021 was done in the PubMed and Google Scholar. The terms ‘Intellectual disability’, ‘Differently abled’, ‘Special children’, ‘Differently challenged’, ‘Mental retardation’, ‘Health-related quality of life’, ‘Quality of life’, ‘Burden of intellectual disability’ and ‘India’ were used to identify measures of HRQOL for children’s with intellectual disability. Several tools were identified to measure HRQOL for children with intellectual disability. Many have parent proxy as well as self-report form with good validity and reliability. Though, they were often developed with minimal involvement from families, focus on functioning rather than wellbeing, and have items that sometimes may cause emotional upset. When children with different health problems are compared, the degree of their particular health condition should be measured. Furthermore, overlap of items seems not to be a problem when the HRQOL of children with intellectually disability is studied. Hence, HRQOL assessments are useful for collecting information beyond the clinical symptoms of a health problem thus improving quality of care.
