Description
Yuan Ren leads a 2026 narrative review of depression in medical students and how it is found and managed. Rates are high, tied to heavy study demands, identity strain, and thin support. The review gathers work on how common depression is, how it is spotted, and what digital and teaching tools may help.
Stigma, weak training, and uneven school rules hinder early detection, the authors find. Phone apps for self-screening, remote counseling, and prediction models offer scalable help, though privacy, fair access, and cultural fit remain concerns. They propose a framework linking prevalence, digital tools, teaching, and policy, and call for training that builds self-awareness, help-seeking, and peer support.
