Exposure to adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) has consistently been associated with multiple negative mental health outcomes extending into adulthood. However, given that ACEs and psychiatric disorders cluster within families, it remains be comprehensively assessed what extent familial confounding contributes associations between clinically confirmed adult disorders.
Abstract Previous research shows that dyslexic readers are impaired in their recognition of faces and other complex objects, show hypoactivation ventral visual stream regions support word object recognition. Responses these brain shaped by statistical learning. If such learning is compromised, people should be less sensitive to statistically likely feature combinations words expected. We therefore tested whether with dyslexia showed diminished capability for Matched typical participated...
Background: Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) have consistently been associated with elevated risk of multiple adverse health outcomes, yet their contribution to coping ability and psychiatric resilience in adulthood is unclear. Methods: Cross-sectional data were derived from the ongoing Stress-And-Gene-Analysis cohort, representing 30% Icelandic nationwide female population, 18–69 years. Participants current study 26,198 women on 13 ACEs measured ACE-International Questionnaire....
Abstract Background Childhood abuse and neglect have been associated with premenstrual disorders (PMDs), including syndrome (PMS) dysphoric disorder (PMDD). However, the associations of other adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) cumulative number ACEs PMDs remain to be explored. Methods To evaluate types PMDs, we conducted a cross-sectional analysis subsample menstruating women within Stress-And-Gene-Analysis (SAGA) cohort, assessed for ( N =11,973). The individual exposure 13 was evaluated...
Purpose Depression and anxiety afflict millions worldwide causing considerable disability. MULTI-PSYCH is a longitudinal cohort of genotyped phenotyped individuals with depression or disorders who have undergone highly structured internet-based cognitive-behaviour therapy (ICBT). The overarching purpose to improve risk stratification, outcome prediction secondary preventive interventions. precision medicine initiative that combines clinical, genetic nationwide register data. Participants...
ABSTRACT Objective Neuroticism is associated with poor health outcomes, but its contribution to the accumulation of deficits in old age, that is, frailty index, largely unknown. We aimed explore associations between neuroticism and cross-sectionally longitudinally, investigate shared genetic influences. Methods Data were derived from UK Biobank (UKB; n = 274,951), Australian Over 50’s Study (AO50; 2849), Swedish Twin Registry (Screening Across Lifespan Twins [SALT], 18,960; The Adoption/Twin...
Emerging data suggest that certain adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are associated with perinatal depression (PND). However, few studies have comprehensively assessed the cumulative number and types of ACEs their association to PND. We conducted a cross-sectional analysis among 16,831 female participants from Stress-And-Gene-Analysis (SAGA) cohort in Iceland, 2018. were surveyed World Health Organization ACE-International questionnaire, while PND symptoms using Edinburgh Postnatal...
Dyslexia is generally considered to have linguistic roots and involve impairments in phonological processing. But recent evidence from our laboratory indicates that people with dyslexia are impaired their recognition of faces other visually complex objects. This raises the question whether difficulty experience reading might be most salient manifestation a more general high-level visual deficit. The word-form area (VWFA) left fusiform gyrus – which involved processing words but also objects...
ABSTRACT Objective Neuroticism is associated with poor health outcomes, but its contribution to the accumulation of deficits in old age, i.e. frailty, largely unknown. We aimed explore associations between neuroticism and frailty cross-sectionally over up 29 years, investigate shared genetic influences. Method Data were derived from UK Biobank (UKB, n=502,631), Australian Over 50’s Study (AO50, n=3,011) Swedish Twin Registry (SALT n=23,744, SATSA n=1,637). Associations Frailty Index...
Abstract Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) have consistently been associated with elevated risk of multiple adverse health outcomes, yet their contribution to coping ability and psychiatric resilience in adulthood is unclear. Participants were 19,613 women the Icelandic Stress- And-Gene-Analysis cohort complete data on 13 ACEs measured ACE-International Questionnaire. Self-reported was Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale operationalized as absence morbidity. Compared 0 ACEs, ≥ 5 had 33%...
