Background: Structural brain abnormalities in schizophrenia have been repeatedly demonstrated magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies, but it remains unclear whether these are static or progressive nature. While longitudinal MRI studies traditionally used to assess the issue of progression schizophrenia, information from cross-sectional neuroimaging directly comparing first-episode and chronic patients healthy controls may also be useful further clarify this issue. With recent interest...
OBJECTIVE: Although well documented, regional brain structural abnormalities in schizophrenia are nonspecific, and morphometric parameters show significant overlapping between patients healthy comparison subjects. An increasing number of studies have focused on supraregional models involving the neuronal circuitry cortical regions schizophrenia. The aim present study was to investigate folding as an index wiring different subtypes METHOD: Magnetic resonance imaging measures gyrification...
Abstract Objective: The objective is to evaluate the prevalence and associated clinical characteristics of eating disorders (ED) in patients with obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD). Method: This a cross‐sectional study comparing 815 OCD. Participants were assessed structured interviews scales: SCID‐I, Y‐BOCS, Dimensional BABS, Beck Depression Anxiety Inventories. Results: Ninety‐two (11.3%) presented following EDs: binge‐eating [= 59 (7.2%)], bulimia nervosa 16 (2.0%)], or anorexia 17...
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) studies have consistently shown white matter (WM) microstructural abnormalities in schizophrenia. Whether or not such alterations could vary depending on clinical status (i.e. acute psychosis v. remission) remains to be investigated.Twenty-five treatment-naïve first-episode (FEP) patients and 51 healthy-controls (HC) underwent MRI scanning at baseline. Twenty-one were re-scanned as soon they achieved sustained remission of symptoms; 36 HC also scanned twice....
In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic brought a work and stress overload to healthcare workers, increasing their vulnerability mental health impairments. response, authors created COMVC-19 program. The program offered preventive actions treatment for 22,000 workers of Hospital das Clinicas da Faculdade de Medicina Universidade São Paulo (HCFMUSP). This paper aims describe its implementation share what we have learned from this experience.Workers were able easily access through 24/7 hotline....
CONTEXTO: Nas últimas décadas, diversos estudos longitudinais têm demonstrado a eficácia da cirurgia bariátrica no controle de peso em longo prazo e na redução mortalidade resultante complicações clínicas associadas à obesidade. Contudo, os também revelam aumento significativo devida suicídio comportamento impulsivo, por razões largamente desconhecidas, o que demonstra escassez informações relativas ao manejo clínico pacientes bariátricos. O presente estudo tem como objetivo sintetizar...
-In recent decades, the high prevalence of obesity in general population has brought serious concerns terms public health. Contrarily to conventional treatment involving dieting and physical exercising, often ineffective generating long term results, bariatric opera-tions have been an effective method for sustained weight loss morbidly obese individuals. The Bariatric Analysis Reporting Outcome System (BAROS) is objective recognized system overall evaluation results after surgery.- To...
Neuroscience-Based Nomenclature (NbN) is a proposal to provide nomenclature based on neuroscience and pharmacology instead of the old disease-based classification. NbN mechanism action pharmacological target aims assist in rational prescription, reduce stigma, increase treatment adherence. Currently, endorsed by many psychiatric associations, adopted several relevant journals, included major psychiatry textbooks. Therefore, it important that known psychiatrists.
