Abstract

Background: Disorders of Sex Development (DSD) refer to a spectrum of congenital conditions involving atypical chromosomal, gonadal, or phenotypic development. Although recent studies have improved our understanding of the medical management of DSD, the psychosocial impact and the role of multidisciplinary care in addressing these challenges remain less well known.Objective: This review aims to examine the classification, diagnostic approaches, and medical and psychosocial challenges associated with DSD, while also highlighting the importance of multidisciplinary support.Methods: A narrative review was conducted to explore the current research and clinical guidelines on DSD, including studies on medical management and psychosocial interventions.Results: The review found that early diagnosis and management are essential to reducing life-threatening risks and psychosocial distress in individuals with DSD. The impact of societal stigma, gender identity complexities, and increased rates of anxiety and depression were observed to contribute to body image concerns. A multidisciplinary care team, involving psychiatrists, endocrinologists, and other specialists, was highlighted as critical for holistic patient care.Conclusion: The findings underscore the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in addressing both the medical and psychosocial aspects of DSD. While collaborative decision-making and individualized care strategies showed positive outcomes, further research is needed to optimize long-term health and quality of life for individuals with DSD.

Abstract

Anxiety and depression are common mental health conditions that substantially affect quality of life. Religious and spiritual engagement has been associated with selected mental health outcomes in conventional offline settings, but the role of digital religious engagement remains unclear. This systematic review aimed to examine digital religious engagement in relation to anxiety and depression in adults. A literature search was conducted in Medline, Scopus, PubMed, and the Cochrane Library for studies published from January 2015 to May 2025. Eligible studies examined religious or spiritual engagement delivered, facilitated, or accessed through digital platforms and reported anxiety and/or depression outcomes. Risk of bias was assessed using design-specific tools, and findings were synthesized narratively because of substantial heterogeneity. Of 400 records identified, 6 studies met the inclusion criteria. Some studies reported potentially beneficial associations between digital religious engagement and selected mental health outcomes, including lower odds of anxiety or depression, reduced emotional burden, and reduced depressive symptoms. However, findings were inconsistent across outcomes, populations, and study designs, and some studies reported null or mixed results. Spiritual support appeared relevant to some observed associations, particularly in relation to depression, but the current evidence remains insufficient to support firm mechanistic conclusions. Overall, digital religious engagement may be associated with selected mental health benefits in some contexts, but the available evidence remains limited and heterogeneous. More rigorous longitudinal and controlled studies are needed.
