Background: Although schizophrenia and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are currently conceptualized as distinct disorders, the similarity in their symptoms often makes differential diagnosis difficult. This study aimed to identify similarities and differences in the symptoms of schizophrenia and ASD to establish a more useful and objective differential diagnostic method and to identify ASD traits in participants with schizophrenia.
Methods: A total of 40 participants with schizophrenia (13 females, mean age: 34 ± 11 years) and 50 participants with ASD (15 females, mean age: 34 ± 8 years) were evaluated using the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule, Second Edition (ADOS-2) and other clinical measures.

Article Synopsis
- The study explores the relationship between chronic skin damage (CSD) and its impact on mouse intestines, particularly focusing on the small intestine's response.
- The application of sodium dodecyl sulfate to induce CSD resulted in observable changes, including villus atrophy, increased intestinal permeability, and higher levels of apoptotic cells in the small intestine.
- Interleukin-13 (IL-13) was identified as a key factor in the damage, as its inhibition reduced intestinal injury and mast cell infiltration, suggesting that skin damage can lead to gut issues, potentially creating a “leaky gut.”
In semiconductor manufacturing, the sublimation drying process is crucial but poorly understood-particularly regarding the solidification of agents such as cyclohexanol on Si substrates. This knowledge gap results in inconsistent film properties and risks such as structural collapse. To address this critical gap in knowledge, the present study focused on an in-depth examination of the nucleation behavior exhibited by cyclohexanol during its cooling and solidification on Si substrates.
