Course of well-being and mental health in Switzerland during the Covid-19 pandemic
Overall, these findings highlight the considerable and lasting impact of COVID-19 on mental health in Switzerland, emphasizing the need for targeted interventions, particularly in the most affected regions
Childhood trauma and relationship with the parents
Childhood trauma or a lack of a good relationship with one parent is associated with worse metabolic and prolactin profiles in first-episode psychosis patients during the first year of antipsychotic treatment
Metabolic disturbances are risk factors for readmission to psychiatric hospitals in non-smokers but not in smokers
The observed interaction between smoking and metabolic variables are compatible with a ceiling effect; metabolic variables increase the risk of readmission in non-smokers but not in smokers who are already at higher risk. Future studies should determine whether better metabolic monitoring and treatment can reduce readmission risk
Bridging structural MRI with cognitive function for individual level classification of early psychosis via deep learning
We reveal the feasibility of automated cognitive estimation using sMRI by deep learning models, and also demonstrate the implicit adoption of cognitive measures as additional information to facilitate EP classifications from healthy controls
Integration of a peer practitioner in a hospital unit for patients with psychotic disorders
The study was conducted in a hospital setting with patients suffering from severe psychiatric disorders associated with behavioral disturbances. The benefits reported in the results outline the feasibility of PMHP integration in an acute psychiatric care setting. Nevertheless, further formalization of the PMHP role is required to minimize possible areas of tension between respective fields of activity of each professional

Détection et intervention précoce pour la psychose
Objectifs Cet article vise à résumer les étapes déterminantes du développement du modèle de détection et d’intervention précoce pour la psychose des 30 dernières années, et à recenser les écrits fondamentaux permettant d’identifier ses composantes essentielles et son efficacité.Méthode Revue narrative de la littérature portant sur le développement international du modèle et contribuant à préconiser cette approche d’intervention chez les jeunes so…
Intervention précoce pour les premiers épisodes psychotiques d’hier à demain
Objectifs L’émergence de l’intervention précoce pour les premiers épisodes psychotiques (PEP), dans les années 90, représente une avancée majeure en santé mentale. On a démontré qu’en offrant des interventions intensives adaptées aux besoins spécifiques des jeunes dès le début du PEP, il devenait possible de durablement améliorer leur évolution ultérieure. Ce modèle d’intervention précoce pour la psychose (IPP) s’accompagne d’une révision en prof…
Promotion of Wellbeing for Children of Parents With Mental Illness
Background: The main objective of this project is to create a research and intervention model to promote large-scale implementation and evaluations of generic very brief interventions for children of parents with mental disorders (COPMI). Feasible interventions for COPMI aged 0-18 years are highly needed, as this is a large high-risk group in society. Reducing behavioral problems and enhancing wellbeing for families with parents affected by any m…
City Avoidance in the Early Phase of Psychosis
Background: A considerable amount of research has explored the link between living in an urban environment during childhood and the increased risk to develop psychosis. However, the urban milieu is more than a risk factor as it is also a place for socialization and enrichment. The aims of the current study were to explore, in a large sample of early psychosis (EP) patients, their pattern of use of the city, their perception when exposed to variou…
Cannabis, a Significant Risk Factor for Violent Behavior in the Early Phase Psychosis. Two Patterns of Interaction of Factors Increase the Risk of Violent Behavior
Background: Previous literature suggests that prevalence of cannabis use in the early phase of psychosis is high, and that early psychosis patients are at high-risk for violent behavior. However, the link between cannabis use and violent behavior in early psychosis patients is unclear. We carried out a study on a sample of early psychosis patients, in order to explore the impact of cannabis use on the risk of violent behavior (VB), while taking i…
Association Between Plasma Caffeine and Other Methylxanthines and Metabolic Parameters in a Psychiatric Population Treated With Psychotropic Drugs Inducing Metabolic Disturbances
Importance: Multiple studies conducted in the general population identified an association between self-reported coffee consumption and plasma lipid levels. To date, no study assessed whether and which plasma methylxanthines (caffeine and/or its metabolites, i.e., paraxanthine, theophylline, and theobromine) are associated with plasma lipids. In psychiatric patients, an important coffee consumption is often reported and many psychotropic drugs ca…
