S77. JUMPING TO CONCLUSIONS AND FACIAL EMOTION RECOGNITION IMPAIRMENT IN FIRST EPISODE PSYCHOSIS ACROSS EUROPE
2018
Abstract Background Jumping to conclusions (JTC) is a well-established reasoning and data gathering bias found in patients with psychosis even at illness onset (First Episode Psychosis, FEP). Preliminary work in this field focused primarily on the association with delusions, although jumping to conclusions has also been found in non-deluded schizophrenia patients after remission, and in individual with at risk mental state. Moreover, psychotic patients tend to show impairments in social cognition, struggling in identifying, processing and interpreting social clues. Deficits in facial emotion recognition (FER) – a key component of the construct – represent a well-replicated finding in schizo…
S249. IS INTERNET HARMFUL FOR PSYCHOTIC PATIENTS?
2018
Abstract Background Developments in electronic health (e-Health) interventions for psychotic patients have been possible since the growing access and use of internet and electronic devices in past 10 years (Bonet et al. 2017). However, before proceeding further on develop these interventions; limited knowledge exists about the impact of internet and new technologies on the mental health of these psychotic patients. The aim of this study is to assess the benefits and risks of new technologies usage in a survey of patients diagnosed with psychotic disorders. We analyzed the relationship between experiences and opinions about internet and demographic and clinical characteristics of the sample …
T52. COGNITION, METACOGNITION AND SOCIAL COGNITION AFTER A FIRST EPISODE PSYCHOSIS. PRELIMINARY RESULTS FROM A 5-YEAR-FOLLOW-UP STUDY
2020
Abstract Background Cognitive impairment is considered a core feature of psychotic disorders. Deficits in cognition, metacognition and social cognition have been reported to be correlated, and indeed predictors, of functional outcome or level of disability. Psychotic patients tend to present lower IQ and show impairment in specific cognitive domains, and in social cognition, than controls. Several studies have found deficits in facial emotion recognition (FER) and a higher prevalence of the jumping to conclusions (JTC) reasoning and data gathering biases among psychotic patients, even at time of illness onset, compared to controls. However, the trajectory of this impairment remains unclear.…
S68. UNALTERED FRONTAL AND PREFRONTAL BRAIN RESPONSE DURING WORK MEMORY TASKS IN PATIENTS WITH A FIRST EPISODE PSYCHOSIS META-ANALYSIS STUDY
2019
BACKGROUND: There is extensive evidence that frontal and prefrontal cortex have abnormal functioning in patients with schizophrenia (Weinberger et al., 2001). For example, with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), multiple studies have shown altered activation during working memory tasks in these patients compared with controls (Adamczyk et al., 2017; Li et al., 2017). While most of the studies have been conducted in patients with chronic illness, whether these findings translate to individuals at the time of presenting with a First Episode Psychosis (FEP) is less well understood (Soldevila-Matias et al., 2018). The main objective of this study was to meta-analyze fMRI studies that…
S153. WHERE IS THE ABNORMAL BRAIN ACTIVITY IN FIRST EPISODE PSYCHOSIS?
2018
Abstract Background Recent review about functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in first episode psychosis (FEP) concluded that there is an abnormal connectivity involving the frontal temporal pathway similar to found in chronic schizophrenia (Mwansisya et al., 2017). Besides, thalamic circuits were also altered in chronic schizophrenia patients (Li et al., 2017). The present work gives a wider review of studies using functional magnetic resonance imaging techniques (fMRI) on first-episode psychotic patients, specifically focus on the main areas involved. Methods The review was made in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines (Moher et al., 2009). For each study, the following factors wer…
F145. WHAT ARE THE MAIN BRAIN CHANGES IN FMRI AFTER TREATMENT IN FIRST EPISODE PSYCHOSIS? A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW
2018
Abstract Background There are many studies using structural MRI to explore the longitudinal course of F Episode Psychosis (FEP).2 On the other hand, there is a lack of functional MRI studies examining the longitudinal course of FEP. The aim of this work is to make a literature systematic review of these studies, to summarize the knowledge about longitudinal course of functional brain activity in FEP. Methods We followed the PRISMA guidelines for conducting systematic reviews and combined the use of electronic and manual systematic search methods, in the principal databases (MedLine, PubMed and Web of Science) using the query “longitudinal” AND “fMRI” AND “first episode psychosis” OR “first …
F99. FIRST EPISODE PSYCHOSIS PATIENTS WHO USED CANNABIS DEVELOP THEIR ILLNESS AT A SIGNIFICANTLY YOUNGER AGE THAN THOSE WHO NEVER USED CONSISTENTLY A…
2018
Abstract Background Patients presenting to psychiatric services with their first episode of psychosis (FEP) report higher rates of previous cannabis use than the general population (Donoghue et al., 2011; Myles, Myles and Large, 2016). Evidence suggested that patients suffering from psychosis with a history of cannabis use have an earlier age of onset of psychosis (AOP) than those who never used it (Di Forti et al., 2013). We aim to investigate if the reported association between use of cannabis and AOP is consistent across different countries, once having taken into account different patterns of cannabis use (i.e. frequency of use and age at first use). Methods We analysed data on patterns…
