Published: January 2012

Dyskinesia can develop in patients with schizophrenia in the course of the disease with or without the use of antipsychotics.In patients with psychiatric disorders other than schizophrenia Tardive Dyskinesia (TD) can develop in patients treated with antipsychotics or other drugs with dopamine D2 blocking properties. Spontaneous Dyskinesia in antipsychotic naive patients with schizophrenia ranges from 4 to 40%, depending on the age and duration of the illness. Moreover, siblings of patients with schizophrenia have higher prevalence rates of dyskinesia than matched controls. Incidence rates of TD due to dopamine blocking properties vary due to the sample population and the affinity for the dopamine blocker to the D2 dopamine receptor. Once developed, TD seems very persistent, the course of TD might be mediated by the affinity for the dopamine D2 receptor. Risk factors for TD in the literature are numerous, in this chapter only replicated and risk factors from longitudinal studies will be reported limiting the amount of risk factors. Furthermore only meta-analyses on genetic factors related to TD will be discussed due to inconsistency of genetic effects because of sample heterogeneity, small effects of multiple genes, (epi)genetic interactions,pleiotropy and small sample size. Finally the concept "Tardive Dyskinesia" will be discussed and the influence hereof on the above mentioned factors.

Background: While expert optometrists tend to rely on a deep understanding of the disease and intuitive pattern recognition, those with less experience may depend more on extensive data, comparisons, and external guidance. Understanding these variations is important for developing artificial intelligence (AI) systems that can effectively support optometrists with varying degrees of experience and minimize decision inconsistencies.

Objective: The main objective of this study is to identify and analyze the variations in diagnostic decision-making approaches between novice and expert optometrists.

The most significant progress in addressing the HIV/AIDS epidemic has been the development of antiretroviral therapy (ART). However, ensuring a high degree of treatment adherence is necessary to prevent resistance and disease progression. We conducted a cross-sectional study to evaluate adherence to ART through the calculation of the medication possession ratio (MPR) and to identify risk factors for suboptimal adherence in a cohort of HIV-positive patients receiving care at a Colombian healthcare institution across 16 cities.

Sensitivity to Environmental Stress and Adversity and Lung Cancer.

JAMA Netw Open

January 2025

Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics, National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health, Rockville, Maryland.

Importance: Sensitivity to environmental stress and adversity may influence lung cancer risk, highlighting a critical link between psychosocial factors and cancer etiology.

Objective: To evaluate whether genetically estimated sensitivity to environmental stress and adversity is associated with lung cancer risk.

Design, Setting, And Participants: Data were obtained from a genome-wide association study identifying 37 independent genetic variants strongly associated with sensitivity to environmental stress and adversity and a cross-ancestry genome-wide meta-analysis from the International Lung Cancer Consortium.

Proximity Ligation Assay to Study Oncogene-Derived Transcription-Replication Conflicts.

Both DNA replication and RNA transcription utilize genomic DNA as their template, necessitating spatial and temporal separation of these processes. Conflicts between the replication and transcription machinery, termed transcription-replication conflicts (TRCs), pose a considerable risk to genome stability, a critical factor in cancer development. While several factors regulating these collisions have been identified, pinpointing primary causes remains difficult due to limited tools for direct visualization and clear interpretation.

Background: Falls on stairs are a major cause of severe injuries among older adults, with stair descent posing significantly greater risks than ascent. Variations in stair descent phenotypes may reflect differences in physical function and biomechanical stability, and their identification may prevent falls.

Aims: This study aims to classify stair descent phenotypes in older adults and investigate the biomechanical and physical functional differences between these phenotypes using hierarchical cluster analysis.
