"This study originated from our long-standing attention to the clinical challenge of violent behavior among hospitalized patients with SMDs. As frontline mental health practitioners and researchers, we have witnessed firsthand how unpredictable violent incidents threaten the safety of both patients and medical staff, disrupt ward order, and impose significant burdens on clinical management. Despite existing efforts to identify risk factors, there remains a critical need for a precise, actionable predictive tool that can assist healthcare providers in early screening and targeted intervention—this gap motivated our comprehensive investigation. Our key finding that educational level, cigarette smoking, length of hospitalization, age, BPRS scores, and CRP levels are independent predictors of violent behavior offers both theoretical and practical insights. Notably, the protective effects of advanced age and higher education, alongside the risk-enhancing roles of smoking, severe psychiatric symptoms (reflected by BPRS scores), and elevated inflammatory markers (CRP), align with clinical observations but are systematically validated here. The constructed nomogram, with AUC values of 0.94 (training set) and 0.93 (validation set), not only demonstrates excellent discriminative power but also features intuitive visualization—allowing clinicians to quickly calculate individual risk without relying on complex statistical analysis. This practicality is further reinforced by the model’s robust calibration and significant net benefit in DCA, ensuring its relevance in real-world ward settings. During the research process, we overcame challenges such as standardizing violent behavior definitions (adopting a 6-level classification to ensure consistency) and integrating both socio-demographic and biological markers (e.g., CRP) into the model. Admittedly, this study has limitations: it is a single-center cross-sectional study, and the sample is restricted to hospitalized patients. Future research should expand to multicenter cohorts with larger and more diverse populations, including community-dwelling SMD patients, to enhance the model’s generalizability. Additionally, standardizing violence assessment tools across studies will help reconcile discrepancies in reported incidence rates and refine predictive factors. We also aim to explore dynamic monitoring of risk factors (e.g., serial CRP measurements and real-time symptom assessments) to update the prediction model and improve its long-term utility. Ultimately, this research is more than a theoretical contribution—it is a clinical tool designed to empower mental health teams. We hope the nomogram will be widely adopted in psychiatric wards to identify high-risk patients early, guide personalized interventions (such as enhanced monitoring for smokers or patients with elevated CRP, or targeted psychoeducation for those with lower education levels), and ultimately reduce violent incidents. By bridging the gap between research and clinical practice, we strive to create safer care environments for both patients and healthcare providers, and we look forward to seeing this model refined and expanded through interdisciplinary collaboration in the field of mental health."

"We are deeply grateful to the Editor-in-Chief, the editorial team, and the reviewers of World Journal of Psychiatry for their thoughtful consideration and acceptance of our manuscript, "Neurofeedback for autism spectrum disorder: Current evidence, challenges, and future directions" (Manuscript No. 114358). This article was motivated by the urgent need to critically evaluate emerging neuromodulation approaches in autism spectrum disorder (ASD)—a condition where pharmacological options remain limited and often target only co-occurring symptoms rather than core neurodevelopmental features. Our synthesis highlights both the promising signals from recent clinical trials and the substantial methodological limitations that currently hinder definitive conclusions about neurofeedback’s efficacy and mechanisms of action. By situating neurofeedback within broader discussions of neural plasticity, individualized intervention, and transdiagnostic biomarkers, we aim to foster a more rigorous and ethically grounded research agenda. We especially appreciate that World Journal of Psychiatry recognizes the value of such interdisciplinary perspectives at the intersection of neuroscience, psychiatry, and developmental disorders. We are also sincerely thankful for the waiver of the article processing charge, which enables equitable access to this work for clinicians, researchers, and families worldwide who are seeking evidence-based guidance amid a rapidly evolving—and sometimes commercially driven—therapeutic landscape. It is our hope that this article will stimulate higher-quality randomized controlled trials, standardized protocols, and long-term follow-up studies, ultimately advancing neurofeedback from experimental promise toward clinically validated practice—if supported by robust evidence. — On behalf of all co-authors"

"We are deeply grateful to the Editor-in-Chief, the editorial team, and the reviewers ofWorld Journal of Psychiatry for their thoughtful consideration and acceptance of our manuscript,"Integrating electromyographic biofeedback in stroke rehabilitation: A paradigm shift in motor and psychological recovery" (Manuscript No. 115160). This work represents a concerted effort to bridge the gap between neurorehabilitation technology and psychiatric well-being—a nexus that is often underemphasized in both stroke care and mental health literature. By highlighting the dual impact of electromyographic (EMG) biofeedback on not only motor relearning but also anxiety reduction, self-efficacy, and emotional regulation post-stroke, we aim to advocate for a more holistic, patient-centered model of recovery that aligns with the biopsychosocial framework championed by modern psychiatry. We particularly appreciate the journal’s recognition of interdisciplinary innovations that expand the boundaries of traditional psychiatric practice. Publishing this perspective inWorld Journal of Psychiatry underscores the growing importance of integrating neurotechnology into mental health interventions for neurological populations—an area ripe for further research and clinical translation. We also sincerely thank the editorial office for the waiver of the article processing charge, which greatly facilitates the dissemination of our findings to a global audience without access barriers. Finally, we hope this article will encourage clinicians, researchers, and policymakers to consider biofeedback not merely as a physical therapy adjunct, but as a psychologically empowering tool that can meaningfully enhance quality of life during stroke recovery. — On behalf of all co-authors"

"Overall, we are pleased that our manuscript has been published in this respected journal. The peer-review process was rapid, although somewhat unusual compared with our previous experiences. After acceptance, the manuscript proofs moved to in press status; however, more than three months passed without any information regarding the final publication date. Overall, our experience with the editorial team was positive, but we found the journal’s online platform somewhat confusing. In particular, during the revision period, a countdown timer was displayed that did not correspond to the official deadline that had been assigned."

"Overall, we are pleased that our manuscript has been published in this respected journal. However, the peer-review process was unusual compared to our previous experiences. Following the acceptance of our manuscript, we were expecting to receive the proofs; instead, we were asked to respond to a second round of reviewer comments. Although we found it unexpected to address additional reviewer queries after receiving the acceptance letter, we nevertheless provided detailed responses, as we believed these revisions would further strengthen the manuscript. This situation may have arisen due to a miscommunication between the editor and the reviewers. Additionally, the online submission system could benefit from improvements to enhance its user-friendliness."
