Early brain development and the origin of psychiatric conditions. Schizophrenia as a differential form brain development rather than a 'disease'. Guest lecture from Daniel Weinberger @BAPsych #BAP2018
Across 4 different datasets (n=1693) obstetric complications interact with polygenetic risk for Schizophrenia. 7 fold increase in prediction of risk with high polygenic risk score AND early life complications. @BAPsych #BAP2018
Take home. Many pathways to developmental noise that will turn out to be relevant to the genesis of lots of different neuropsychiatric conditions. @BAPsych #BAP2018

The International Consensus Criteria for ME states: “Misperceptions have arisen because the name ‘CFS’ and its hybrids #MECFS, #CFSME and CFS/CF have been used for widely diverse conditions”. #pwME #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis
@EmergeAus “Our panel strongly recommends that only the name ‘myalgic encephalomyelitis’ be used to identify patients meeting the ICC because a distinctive disease entity should have one name.”
@EmergeAus “Patients diagnosed using broader or other criteria for CFS or its hybrids (Oxford, Reeves, London, Fukuda, CCC, etc.) should be reassessed with the ICC. Those who fulfill the criteria have ME; those who do not would remain in the more encompassing CFS classification.”

For the first time ever, measurements from NASA Earth-observing research satellites are being used to help combat a potential outbreak of life-threatening cholera.
Humanitarian teams in Yemen are targeting areas identified by a NASA-supported project that precisely forecasts high-risk regions based on environmental conditions observed from space.

This is gonna be a continuing series, because it’s complex. How we think about fashion is just one aspect of how we think and perceive. I’ve been working on this for a while. It’s foundational. Per usual, I’m just articulating what you already know.

Daniel Weinberger: been arguing for years that to understand schizophrenia we need to think about how brains are built and how different trajectories of post natal development affect the brain #BAP2018
Weinberger: schizophrenia not a disease in a classical medical sense but a state of brain formed through development #BAP2018
Weinberger: Schizophrenia runs in families. Roughly 1% of cases have loss of function mutations which is major risk factor, about 2% cases have CNVs and 97% cases cumulation of common variants in particular combination. #BAP2018

THREAD: "You may see a family with a member, often female, diagnosed with or suspected to have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, Hypermobility Type (EDS-HT), postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) and mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS)."
"Then in the extended family, you may find autoimmune diseases, i.e. multiple sclerosis, cutting and eating disorders, "possible bipolar disorder," gender fluidity, a highly successful and innovative genius, someone with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) or fibromyalgia (FM)..."
"...someone with severe post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and someone else with bouts of psychosis. The children who are more scrutinized in this day and age, may be diagnosed with attention deficit disorder (ADD), sensory processing issues plus or minus [autism]."
