TL;DR: Patients with higher polygenic risk scores for schizophrenia tended to have less improvement with antipsychotic drug treatment, and PRS burden may have potential utility as a prognostic biomarker.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used T1-weighted magnetic resonance images to determine neurobiologic correlates of group differences in cortical thickness between cases and controls in 6 disorders: attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), bipolar disorder (BD), major depressive disorder (MDD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and schizophrenia.

TL;DR: The GAF is a useful and easy-to-apply measure of global functioning, independent of cross-cultural differences, and clinical factors are the main determinants of its score, although social functioning variables also have a lesser effect.

TL;DR: This work presents a novel probabilistic method called “spot-time PCR” that allows for real-time analysis of the response of the immune system to foreign substance abuse.

TL;DR: Olanzapine, risperidone, and aripiprazole presented advantages for the first-line treatment of first episode of psychosis in terms of effectiveness and significant differences between treatments were found in the categories of sleepiness/sedation, increased sleep duration, akinesia, weight gain, ejaculatory dysfunction, extrapyramidal-symptoms, and amenorrhea.
