Childhood-onset schizophrenia is rare, comprising 1% of known schizophrenia cases. Here, we report a patient with childhood-onset schizophrenia who has three large chromosomal abnormalities: an inherited 2.2 Mb deletion of chromosome 3p12.2-p12.1, a de novo 16.7 Mb duplication of 16q22.3-24.3, and a de novo 43 Mb deletion of Xq23-q28.

Background: The United States Food and Drug Administration approved 6 atypical antipsychotics for pediatric treatment of schizophrenia. However, little has been published on the effectiveness of these medications in the acute treatment setting of adolescents with psychosis. Since the clinical uncertainty and poor prognosis proceeding the early onset of schizophrenia has a significant impact on a child's development, there is a critical need for evidence-based data on this population.

This study aims to demonstrate that children and adolescents diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) who exhibit autism traits have a more severe clinical profile in terms of emotion regulation, clinical features related to ADHD, and functionality, compared to those diagnosed with ADHD without these traits. 50 patients with and 64 patients without autism traits between the ages of 8-16 were recruited for the study among the children and adolescents diagnosed with ADHD. The Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia for School-Age Children-Present and Lifetime Version, DSM-5-2016-Turkish Adaptation (K-SADS-PL-DSM-5-T) was used to exclude the diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and detect comorbid psychiatric diagnosis.

Background: There is a strong link between trauma exposure and serious mental health conditions (SMHCs), such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. The majority of research in the field has focused on childhood trauma as a risk factor for developing an SMHC and on samples from high-income countries. There is less research on having an SMHC as a risk factor for exposure to traumatic events, and particularly on populations in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).

Background: Childhood trauma (CT) is related to altered fractional anisotropy (FA) in individuals with schizophrenia (SZ). However, it remains unclear whether CT may influence specific cellular or extracellular compartments of FA in SZ with CT experience. We extended our previous study on FA in SZ (Costello et al.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how early-adolescence prodromes in schizophrenia (SCZ) relate to social cognition deficits and sensorimotor impairments, comparing them to autism spectrum disorders (ASD).
- It involves four groups: ASD, SCZ with early-adolescence prodromes (under 15), SCZ with late-adolescence prodromes (over 15), and a control group, analyzing their social cognition and neurological soft signs (NSS).
- Findings indicate that SCZ with early prodromes show similar social cognition impairments as those with ASD, highlighting that age of prodrome onset plays a critical role in understanding SCZ subgroups rather than just the onset of psychosis.
