Genomic sequencing has the potential to revolutionise newborn screening (NBS) programmes. In 2024, Genomics England began to recruit for the Generation Study (GS), which uses whole genome sequencing (WGS) to detect genetic changes in 500 genes in more than 200 rare conditions. Ultimately, its purpose is to facilitate the earlier identification of rare conditions and thereby improve health-related outcomes for individuals.

Article Synopsis
  • * Both male and female schizophrenia patients faced higher risks of all-cause mortality, suicide, and natural causes, but no significant differences were found between the sexes in these risks.
  • * Young females (<40) showed a notably higher mortality risk compared to older females, while males faced a much greater risk of dying from neurological disorders than females, indicating a need for better healthcare interventions.

Article Synopsis
  • Older adults with major depressive disorder (MDD) or mild cognitive impairment (MCI) are at increased risk for cognitive decline, making effective interventions crucial.
  • This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of combining cognitive remediation (CR) and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on cognitive decline in older adults with remitted MDD (rMDD) and/or MCI.
  • Results indicated that this intervention slowed cognitive decline over time but did not lead to immediate improvements in cognition after 2 months.

Substance Use Disorders (SUDs) manifest as persistent drug-seeking behavior despite adverse consequences, with Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) and Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) representing prevalent forms associated with significant mortality rates and economic burdens. The co-occurrence of AUD and OUD is common, necessitating a deeper comprehension of their intricate interactions. While the causal link between these disorders remains elusive, shared genetic factors are hypothesized.
