Open accessAbstract
Objective: To conduct a comprehensive review of scientific publications related to mental pain and suicide risk in order to deepen relevant aspects to guide clinical interventions. Method: Using a text analysis tool, we collected the terms most frequently linked with that situation in published results of research using various tools to evaluate mental pain or psychache. Discussion: We propose clinical interventions for the clinical conditions most commonly associated with mental pain.

Prior reviews indicate the relevance of cognitive-behavioural and mindfulness-based strategies for psychological pain and identify psychological pain as both a state and trait phenomenon.
“Overall, prior reviews [53,54,55,56,57] indicate the relevance of cognitive-behavioural and mindfulness-based strategies and identify psychological pain as both a state and trait phenomenon, supporting psychological pain as a meaningful intervention target.”

The Results classify mental pain in suicidal behaviour into transient psychological states and relatively stable psychological traits. The Discussion recommends cognitive remediation, problem-solving and other cognitive techniques, but the searched passages do not identify mindfulness-based strategies. Thus this source supports the state–trait distinction and the relevance of cognitive strategies, not the mindfulness-based part. (LLM, conf=0.87)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredMorales & Barros conducted a qualitative review identifying core psychological states and traits associated with suicidal psychological pain: transient states such as hopelessness, loneliness, and unbearable psychological suffering, and relatively stable traits including alexithymia, emotional dysregulation, and interpersonal difficulties.
“Morales & Barros [57] conducted a qualitative review identifying core psychological states and traits associated with suicidal psychological pain. Their findings describe transient states such as hopelessness, loneliness, and unbearable psychological suffering, as well as relatively stable traits including alexithymia, emotional dysregulation, and interpersonal difficulties.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
