Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the clinical high risk for psychosis (CHR-p) syndrome, distinguishing between two types of stigma: 'labelling-related' stigma stemming from the identification itself and 'symptom-related' stigma from experiencing mental health symptoms.
- It compares the rates and effects of these stigmas on self-esteem, social support, and quality of life in individuals identified as CHR-p.
- Results showed that symptom-related stigma was more strongly linked to negative psychosocial effects, while labelling-related stigma involved higher levels of secrecy, indicating the need for interventions that address the full stigma experience for those at risk.
Objective: Prior qualitative studies show that individuals with psychoticlike experiences express difficulties concerning their identity. However, previous work has studied individuals at clinical high risk for psychosis (CHR) and individuals with first-episode psychosis (FEP) separately. Here, we compare the experiences of individuals at CHR, individuals with FEP, and healthy individuals.

Article Synopsis
- * Researchers have engineered a bispecific antibody called glycofusion bispecific (GBi) that links the α-dG protein to the β-DG protein to potentially improve muscle function in affected individuals.
- * The study found that adding a sugar mixture containing uridine, galactose, and manganese ions (Mn) to the culture medium enhanced the matriglycan modification and binding activity of the GBi antibody, with Mn being especially critical for
