We show long-lasting...
Exposure to inflammatory stressors during fetal development is a major risk factor for neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) in adult offspring. Maternal immune activation (MIA), induced by infection, causes an acute increase pro-inflammatory cytokines which can the NDDs directly inducing placental and brain inflammation, or indirectly through affecting maternal care behaviours thereby postnatal development. Which of these two potential mechanisms dominates increasing offspring remains...
Both stroke and psychosis are independently associated with high levels of disability. However, in the context has been under-researched. To date, there no general population studies on their joint prevalence association.To estimate statistical association using nationally representative psychiatric epidemiology from two high-income countries (the UK USA) middle-income (Chile Colombia) and, subsequently, a combined-countries data-set.Prevalences were calculated 95% confidence intervals....
Abstract Background Evidence that mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) causes psychiatric problems in children has been mixed. Investigating this issue difficult due to the lack of representative longitudinal data on child mTBI includes adequate measures subsequent mental health symptoms and service use young people. Methods We used from ABCD cohort study examine association between diagnoses, symptoms, over 11,000 children. In both reporting i) previous at baseline; ii) previously uninjured...
