Abstract:

This Thesis describes the epidemiology of schizophrenia and related disorders in the defined catchment area of Camberwell, SE London, UK, over the period 1965 to 1984. Cases were ascertained through the comprehensive Camberwell Cumulative Psychiatric Case Register. All first-contact patients with a Register diagnosis of any non-affective non-organic psychotic illness were included in the study. Diagnostic uniformity was ensured by rediagnosis of all cases (n=531) using the computerised OCCPI system, which facilitates rediagnosis according to a wide range of diagnostic criteria. Trends in the i

Abstract:

Background: Schizophrenia is a chronic, debilitating mental disorder characterized by positive (e.g., hallucinations, delusions) and negative (e.g., catatonia, flat affect) signs and symptoms. Many studies suggest that individuals born in winter or spring months are at increased risk for schizophrenia. Study Objectives: 1) To determine whether season of birth affects risk for schizophrenia in the Irish Study of High Density Schizophrenia Families (ISHDSF). 2) To examine, by computer simulation, power to detect genetic associations with schizophrenia under a variety of conditions and using diff

Abstract:

Schizophrenia is an illness causing impairment in thinking and functioning in many realms of everyday life. It is considered one of the most disabling of mental illnesses. This thesis considers the impact of schizophrenia in Ontario, including elevated mortality, degree of disability, economic impact. Some known risk factors for schizophrenia are increasingly common in Ontario, such as urban exposure, and a history of immigration. The impact of the illness in Ontario makes schizophrenia a good candidate for surveillance and case registry in this province. This thesis reviews the required eleme

Abstract The aim of this dissertation was to study outcomes in schizophrenia and their predictors in a meta-analysis and in the Northern Finland Birth Cohort 1966 (NFBC 1966). The NFBC 1966 is an unselected, population-based cohort consisting of 12,068 pregnant women and their 12,058 live-born children. This dissertation utilises data that has been collected from medical records, national registers and from two extensive psychiatric studies conducted when the cohort members were 34 and 43 years old, including interview, neurocognitive and brain magnetic resonance imaging data, and questionnair

Abstract:

Over the past few decades, epidemiological evidence has accrued to establish variance in psychosis risk across both geographical locations and demographic characteristics such as the excess risk in migrants and their descendants. Yet, the causes of this variation in rates between places and ethnic groups are still unclear, and I aimed to address this in this thesis. I conducted a systematic review and meta-analyses to synthesise existing literature on psychosis incidence in the six countries included in the EUropean network of national schizophrenia networks studying Gene-Environment Interacti

Abstract:

The general construct of human cognition implies a series of mental processes by means of which human interpret and consequently act on the world that surrounds them (Sternberg y Mio, 2009). During the last decades, the recognition of human diversity and psychological variability among individuals has encouraged challenging questions addressing inter-individual differences that make each subject unique in terms of their cognitive performance (Baddeley, 2003; Botvinick, 2008). In particular, quantitative genetic studies show that both genetic variability and environmental factors are involved i

A pesar de que más del 50% de la variabilidad de la enfermedad se puede deber a uno o varios factores genéticos, sólo un número limitado de variantes de riesgo genético y con un efecto muy débil han podido ser identificados. Muchos de ellos no han podido reproducirse tanto por la diversidad de las muestras y poblaciones estudiadas como por su asociación a diversas enfermedades mentales. Parte de esta heterogenei
