Navigating Discharge From Early Intervention in Psychosis Services
INTRODUCTION: Early Intervention in Psychosis (EIP) services in England offer up to 3 years' time-limited support to people experiencing early psychosis. Service users (SUs) are discharged to primary care, a community mental health team (CMHT), or other specialist mental health service. The aim of this study is to explore the SU and carer journey through discharge from EIP and into the early post-discharge period. METHODS: Qualitative longitudina…
Predictors of positive outcomes from ‘Early Intervention in Psychosis’
This study aims to provide valuable insights into the long-term effects of variations in EIP service delivery. The study involves a large, diverse cohort including individuals treated by every EIP service in England. While there are limitations inherent in the observational nature of the study, any associations identified will be of great relevance to clinicians, researchers, and policymakers seeking to optimize EIP care. The results will enable …
Validating measures of stigma against those with mental illness among a community sample in Kilifi Kenya
Kiswahili versions of the MAKS, RIBS and a modified version of the CAMI are valid for use in the study population. Stigma against people with mental illness may not be an enduring trait in this population
Psychotic-like experiences in help-seeking adolescents
BACKGROUND: Psychotic-like experiences (PLEs) are common in the general population and increase the risk of psychotic disorders. Adolescents are a high-risk group of this condition. Stressful events, such as bullying, have a role in the onset of PLEs. This study has several aims: (1) to assess PLEs in adolescents seeking help from a Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service, (2) to assess the association of PLEs with specific bullying victimizat…
Synaptic and Neuronal Autoantibody-Associated Psychiatric Syndromes
Autoimmune encephalitis (AE) mediated by antibodies against synaptic and neuronal surface targets frequently presents with a psychiatric syndrome. In these patients, removal of autoantibodies treats the disease and outcomes are closely linked to early intervention. The discovery of these autoantibodies in isolated psychiatric syndromes has raised the possibility that these patients may derive similar benefits from immunotherapy, a potentially tra…
Adolescent Major Depressive Disorder
Compared to female major depressive disorder (MDD), male MDD often receives less attention. However, research is warranted since there are significant sex differences in the clinical presentation of MDD and a higher rate of suicide in depressed men. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study with a large sample addressing putative sex differences in MDD during adolescence, a period when one …
The cost-effectiveness of early care by dedicated teams for chronic mental health conditions
Introduction: Psychosis is a common and severe mental illness, with a large health and economic impact on societies worldwide. The earlier the illness is treated the better the long term outcomes. In England, Early Intervention in Psychosis (EIP) services have been introduced over the last 15 years to address this problem and they are included in the new Access and Waiting time standard in England published in April 2015. This standard mandates t…
