Prefrontal Hypoactivation and Time Distortion Linked to Adolescent Self-Injury
Adolescents who self-harm show reduced left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex activity and a distinct inability to accurately estimate time.
Antifibrotic Adherence and Standard Dosing Reduce Mortality in IPF
A nested case-control study finds that nintedanib dose reductions increase mortality and hospitalization risks for patients with IPF.
Recent Psychotropic Initiation and Frequent ER Visits Signal Suicide Risk
A nationwide study identifies mood stabilizer initiation and fragmented emergency care as critical proximal markers of suicide risk.
Serum sRAGE Levels Link Biological Rhythm Stability to Depression Severity
A case-control study identifies soluble RAGE as a protective mediator against circadian disruption and insomnia in depressed patients.
Reduced Loss Aversion and Impaired Response Inhibition Distinguish Suicide Attempters
Cognitive profiling reveals that reduced sensitivity to loss and poor impulse control characterize patients with violent suicide attempts.
Industrial Dust and Smoking Combine to Increase Multiple Sclerosis Risk
Patients exposed to occupational dust who also smoke and carry the HLA-DRB1*15:01 allele face an 11-fold higher rate of multiple sclerosis.
Recent Infection Increases Childhood Stroke Risk; No Link Found for Vaccination
