TL;DR: In a genome-wide search for CNVs associating with schizophrenia, a population-based sample was used to identify de novo CNVs by analysing 9,878 transmissions from parents to offspring and three deletions significantly associate with schizophrenia and related psychoses in the combined sample.

TL;DR: In this article, the identification of regulatory microRNAs (miRNAs) as important in brain development and function, miRNAs genes have emerged as candidates for schizophrenia-associated genetic factors.

TL;DR: Oxidative stress could be involved in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia, a major psychiatric disorder, and the gene of the key GSH-synthesizing enzyme, glutamate cysteine ligase modifier (GCLM) subunit, is strongly associated with schizophrenia.

TL;DR: Findings show a lower risk of repeated deliberate self-harm and general mortality in recipients of psychosocial therapy after short-term and long-term follow-up, and a protective effect for suicide after long- term follow- up, which favour the use of psycho-social therapy interventions after deliberateSelf-harm.

TL;DR: A protective effect of the OPAC programme is suggested on the proportion who repeated a suicide attempt and on the total number of repetitions during the follow-up.
