Early Parental Death and Risk of Psychosis in Offspring: A Six-Country Case-Control Study
2019
Evidence for early parental death as a risk factor for psychosis in offspring is inconclusive. We analyzed data from a six-country, case-control study to examine the associations of early parental death, type of death (maternal, paternal, both), and child’s age at death with psychosis, both overall and by ethnic group. In fully adjusted multivariable mixed-effects logistic regression models, experiencing early parental death was associated with 1.54-fold greater odds of psychosis (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.23, 1.92). Experiencing maternal death had 2.27-fold greater odds (95% CI: 1.18, 4.37), paternal death had 1.14-fold greater odds (95% CI: 0.79, 1.64), and both deaths had 4.4…
Decision Making and Cognitive Behavioral Flexibility in a OCD Sample: a Study in a Virtual Environment
2015
Neuropsychological disorders are common in Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) patients. Executive functions, verbal fluency and verbal memory, shifting attention from one aspect of stimuli to others, mental flexibility, engaging in executive planning and decision making, are the most involved cognitive domains. We focus on two aspects of neuropsychological function: decision making and cognitive behavioral flexibility, assessed through a virtual version of the Multiple Errand Test (V-MET), developed using the NeuroVR software.Thirty OCD patients were compared with thirty matched control subjects. The results showed the presence of difficulties in OCD patients with tasks where the goal is n…

PATIENTS WITH THEIR FIRST EPISODE OF PSYCHOSIS (FEP) WHO USE CANNABIS HAVE NORMAL PREMORBID IQ
2012
Cannabis use is highly prevalent among people with schizophrenia and, coupled with impaired cognition, is thought to heighten the risk of illness onset. Paradoxically, several studies report lifetime cannabis use as a predictor of a better cognitive performance in psychotic patients. This case/control study was conducted in order to observe in a First Episode group the association between cannabis use lifetime and two measures of general cognition: current and pre-morbid IQ. The data are derived from the GAP study, a case-control study of first-episode psychosis (FEP) - South London and Maudsley Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust. 279 consenting subjects: 119 FEP patients (age 29.6±8.5; 70%…
