Adverse Childhood Experiences and Hallucinations.

TL;DR: A statistically significant and graded relationship between histories of childhood trauma and histories of hallucinations that was independent of a history of substance abuse is found.
Journal ArticleDOI

Epidemiology of schizophrenia: review of findings and myths.

TL;DR: The major epidemiological features of schizophrenia are reviewed, with particular attention to the recent advances using population-based data and some pervasive misconceptions about schizophrenia epidemiology, such as universal distribution and gender equality are discussed.
Book ChapterDOI

The neuropsychology of schizophrenia

TL;DR: This chapter presents the neuropsychological aspects of schizophrenia, with an emphasis upon the major cognitive and behavioural functions that are affected, and focuses on neurocognitive processes involved in the expression of the disease and elaborate on possibly relevant modulatory factors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Brain structure, genetic liability, and psychotic symptoms in subjects at high risk of developing schizophrenia

TL;DR: The results suggest that some structural abnormalities in subjects at high risk of developing schizophrenia have abnormalities of brain structure similar to but not identical to those found in schizophrenia, and that the development of symptoms is associated with a third overlapping group of structural changes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prenatal rubella, premorbid abnormalities, and adult schizophrenia

TL;DR: These findings link a known prenatal exposure, a deviant neurodevelopmental trajectory in childhood and adolescence, and SSP in adulthood within the same individuals.

Implications of normal brain development for the pathogenesis of schizophrenia

TL;DR: The findings suggest that nonspecific histopathology exists in the limbic system, diencephalon, and prefrontal cortex, that the pathology occurs early in development, and that the causative process is inactive long before the diagnosis is made.

The strategy of preventive medicine

Geoffrey Rose
TL;DR: This chapter discusses the relation of risk to exposure, prevention for individuals and the 'high-risk' strategy, and the population strategy of prevention.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adult Schizophrenia Following Prenatal Exposure to an Influenza Epidemic

TL;DR: It is suggested that it is less the type than the timing of the disturbance during fetal neural development that is critical in determining risk for schizophrenia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anatomical abnormalities in the brains of monozygotic twins discordant for schizophrenia.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors found that subtle abnormalities of cerebral anatomy (namely, small anterior hippocampi and enlarged lateral and third ventricles) are consistent neuropathologic features of schizophrenia and that their cause is at least in part not genetic.

Is schizophrenia a neurodevelopmental disorder

Robin M. Murray, +1 more
- 19 Sep 1987 - 
TL;DR: Much research implicates the left rather than the right cerebral hemisphere in schizophrenia, and there is evidence that schizophrenics are more likely to be left handed than controls, and the normal development of lateralised cerebral dominance can be disrupted by premature birth with a resultant increase in left handedness.
