Long-term affective disorder in people with mild learning disability

TL;DR: Learning disability is strongly associated with risk of affective disorder, persisting well into midlife, not accounted for by social and material disadvantage or by medical disorder.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association between nonpsychotic psychiatric diagnoses in adolescent males and subsequent onset of schizophrenia.

TL;DR: These results reflect the relatively common finding of impaired functioning in patients later hospitalized for schizophrenia and the relatively low power of these disorders in predicting schizophrenia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Copy number variation at 22q11.2: from rare variants to common mechanisms of developmental neuropsychiatric disorders

TL;DR: It is proposed that alterations of a distinct set of multiple, noncontiguous genes encoded in this chromosomal region, in concert with modulatory impacts of genetic background and environmental factors, variably shift the probabilities of phenotypes along a predetermined developmental trajectory.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dimensions of depression, mania and psychosis in the general population

TL;DR: In the general population, seven correlated but separable dimensions of experiences exist that resemble dimensions of psychopathology seen in clinical samples with severe mental illness.
Journal ArticleDOI

Infant developmental milestones: a 31-year follow-up

TL;DR: Those who develop faster during their first year of life tend to attain higher levels of education in adolescence and adulthood, and those who reach infant developmental milestones sooner have significantly better mean scores in teacher ratings.

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.
