this study contributes to the growing evidence-base which suggests that ACT could be another treatment option for people with psychosis. Further studies of ACT for people with psychosis are required to continue building upon the evidence-base.
Within healthcare services, we facilitate ACT-based groups for people with mental health difficulties. We have an opportunity here to set up ACT-based groups specifically for people with psychosis and conduct service evaluation studies to evaluate their feasibility in services.

This study adds epidemiological weight to the implementation of health maintenance strategies and risk management procedures to reduce the risk of violent outcomes in individuals with mental health disorders (specifically, substance use disorder, psychosis, and ‘personality disorders’). The findings highlight how experiences of victimisation and perpetration are more often comorbid, with experiences of both victimisation and perpetration more common than an experience of only one of the outcomes.

This study aimed to establish a comprehensive set of recovery-oriented rehabilitation programs for individuals with schizophrenia, comparing the efficacy of video-based rehabilitation to traditional face-to-face interventions. The primary objective was to assess whether video-based rehabilitation could serve as a viable alternative for individuals with schizophrenia residing in remote areas.

In this study, the most common trajectories of illness course are described for a cohort of individuals followed for 25 years since first admission for psychosis. To read the full article, choose Open Athens “Institutional Login” and search for “Midlands Partnership”.
The authors revisit the neurodevelopmental model of schizophrenia with genomic insights from the most recent schizophrenia clinical genetic association studies, transcriptomic and epigenomic analyses from human postmortem brain studies, and analyses from cellular models that recapitulate neurodevelopment.

We show how acoustic prosodic features, such as pitch and gaps, can be used computationally for detecting symptoms of schizophrenia from a single spoken response. Open access article - no login required.
The present study included 644 schizophrenia patients from two centers. Demographic and clinical characteristics were collected at baseline and 4 weeks after admission to investigate the correlation between metabolites, episodes, usage of AAPDs, and occurrence of dyslipidemia.

What this paper adds to existing knowledge?
-The Interactive Approach model can be used to improve communication between nursing staff and patients in numerous critical situations.
-Using a structured risk scale to evaluate a conflict can be an effective way to guide action and sort out the different aspects of communication between nursing staff and psychotic patients.

Phosphodiesterase 2 (PDE2) regulates intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate and guanosine monophosphate (cAMP/cGMP) levels, which contribute to processes crucial for learning and memory. BI 474121, a potent and selective PDE2 inhibitor, is in development for treating cognitive impairment associated with schizophrenia. Open access article - no login required
We aimed to explore the utility of NEET status (not in education, employment or training) at FEP onset in predicting high threshold clinical remission (absence of positive symptoms and off antipsychotic medication for 6 months) at 3 years following treatment with an early intervention for psychosis service.

The significant clinical heterogeneity among CHR-P individuals suggests that interventions may need to be personalized during this emerging illness phase. We examined longitudinal trajectories within-persons during treatment to investigate whether baseline factors predict symptomatic and functional outcomes. Open access article - no login required
