Use of antipsychotic medication, benzodiazepines, and psychiatric hospitalization in cannabis-related versus cannabis-unrelated schizophrenia - a nationwide, register-based cohort study
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings indicate the importance of considering cannabis-related cases of schizophrenia as a potentially distinct disorder in terms of prognosis. It is unclear, however, if these differences are due to different biological types of schizophrenia being compared or if they rather indicate behavioral differences such as reduced adherence and treatment-seeking.PMID:38571303 | DOI:10.1017/S0033291724000758 (Source: Psychological Medicine)

Structure-function coupling and hierarchy-specific antidepressant response in major depressive disorder
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings reveal opposing SFC alterations in low-level unimodal and high-level transmodal networks, underscoring spatial variability in MDD pathology. Moreover, hierarchy-specific antidepressant effects provide valuable insights into predicting treatment outcomes.PMID:38571298 | DOI:10.1017/S0033291724000801 (Source: Psychological Medicine)

Shared genetic basis and causality between schizophrenia and inflammatory bowel disease: evidence from a comprehensive genetic analysis
CONCLUSIONS: We confirmed a shared genetic basis, pleiotropic loci/genes, and causal relationship between SCZ and IBD, providing novel insights into the biological mechanism and therapeutic targets underlying these two disorders.PMID:38563283 | DOI:10.1017/S0033291724000771 (Source: Psychological Medicine)

Associations between attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder genetic liability and ICD-10 medical conditions in adults: utilizing electronic health records in a Phenome-Wide Association Study
CONCLUSIONS: Overall our findings indicate that ADHD genetic liability is associated with an increased risk of a substantial number of medical conditions in undiagnosed individuals. These results highlight the need for timely detection and improved management of ADHD symptoms in adults.PMID:38563284 | DOI:10.1017/S0033291724000606 (Source: Psychological Medicine)

Relative associations of behavioral and physiological risks for cardiometabolic disease with cognition in bipolar disorder during mid and later-life: findings from the UK biobank
CONCLUSIONS: Health risk behaviors, as well as blood pressure and muscular strength, are associated with cognitive function in BD, whereas other traditional physiological cardiometabolic disease risk factors are not.PMID:38563285 | DOI:10.1017/S0033291724000722 (Source: Psychological Medicine)

Clinical illness course and family-related outcomes among parents with a first episode of schizophrenia spectrum disorder: a 20-year follow-up of the OPUS trial
CONCLUSIONS: Overall, parents have more favorable long-term outcomes than non-parents. Still, parents experience possible challenges regarding family functioning, and a minority of their children face difficulties in daily life.PMID:38563286 | DOI:10.1017/S0033291724000680 (Source: Psychological Medicine)

The mediating role of reflective functioning and general psychopathology in the relationship between childhood conduct disorder and adult aggression among offenders
CONCLUSIONS: These findings highlight the critical role of a transdiagnostic approach provided by RF and general psychopathology in explaining the link between CD and aggression. Furthermore, they underscore the potential utility of treatments focusing on RF, such as mentalization-based treatment, in mitigating aggression in offenders with diverse psychopathologies.PMID:38563288 | DOI:10.1017/S003329172400062X (Source: Psychological Medicine)

Age-atypical brain functional networks in autism spectrum disorder: a normative modeling approach
CONCLUSIONS: Individuals with ASD exhibit distinct, highly individualized trajectories of brain functional network development. In addition, distinct developmental trajectories were observed among ASD and TD individuals, suggesting that it may be challenging to identify true differences in network characteristics by comparing young children with ASD to their TD peers. This study enhances understanding of the biological heterogeneity of the disorder and can inform precision medicine.PMID:38563297 | DOI:10.1017/S0033291724000138 (Source: Psychological Medicine)

Assessing regional intracortical myelination in schizophrenia spectrum and bipolar disorders using the optimized T1w/T2w-ratio
CONCLUSIONS: While we found no evidence of reduced intracortical myelin in SCZ or BPD relative to CTR, different regional age trajectories in SCZ may suggest a promyelinating effect of antipsychotic medication.PMID:38563302 | DOI:10.1017/S0033291724000503 (Source: Psychological Medicine)
