Sleep characteristics and cognitive impairment in bipolar disorder
Introduction Bipolar disorder (BD) is a chronic condition often associated with sleep disturbances and cognitive impairment, even during periods of clinical stability. Methods This study explores the impact of insomnia on cognitive functioning in 170 outpatients diagnosed with BD, 61.8% of which were women (n=105), grouped by age (<50 years vs. ≥50 years). Standardized and validated instruments were used to assess sleep quality (Oviedo Sleep Ques…
Impact of traumatic life events on clinical variables of individuals with first-episode psychosis and healthy controls
BACKGROUND: Traumatic life events (TLEs) are one of the most robust environmental risk factors for the onset of first-episode psychosis (FEP). AIMS: To explore TLEs in FEP patients and healthy controls (HC), to analyze gender differences and to examine whether TLEs were associated with sociodemographic, clinical and psychofunctional variables in all FEP sample and split by age. METHODS: Descriptive and cross-sectional study. Three hundred and thi…
What factors should we modify to promote high functioning and prevent functional decline in people with schizophrenia
We identified specific protective and risk factors for high and low functioning in patients with schizophrenia and confirmed that high functioning factors are not necessarily the opposite of those associated with low functioning. Only negative experiential symptoms are a shared and inverse factor for high and low functioning. Mental health teams must be aware of protective and risk factors and try to enhance or reduce them, respectively, to help …
Does Covid-19 psychological fatigue exist? Results of three online cross-sectional studies conducted in Spain from April 2020 to March 2021
Background: A previously published meta-analysis found that about one-third of the general population experienced some mental health problem during the early phase of the COVID-19 pandemic, potentially leading to a late mental health crisis. We aimed to describe the acute, short-term, and long-term effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on mental health. Methods: A one-year online survey (S) was conducted in Spain (April 2020 - March 2021). We recruite…

Introduction: Interest in the idea of recovery for certain patients with schizophrenia has been growing over the last decade. Improving symptomatology and functioning is crucial for achieving this. Our study aims to identify those factors that substantially contribute to real-world functioning in these patients. Methods: We carried out a cross-sectional study in stable outpatients with schizophrenia on maintenance antipsychotic monotherapy. Patie…
Early psychological impact of the 2019 coronavirus disease (Covid-19) pandemic and lockdown in a large Spanish sample
Our results can help develop coping strategies addressing modifiable risk and protective factors for each mental status for early implementation in future outbreaks
White Noise Speech Illusions
Introduction: White noise speech illusions index liability for psychotic disorder in case-control comparisons. In the current study, we examined i) the rate of white noise speech illusions in siblings of patients with psychotic disorder and ii) to what degree this rate would be contingent on exposure to known environmental risk factors (childhood adversity and recent life events) and level of known endophenotypic dimensions of psychotic disorder …
