The results of ketamine anesthesia are analyzed in 327 patients after stomach resection and cholecystectomy. Preoperative determination of nervous system type, using MMPI test, has revealed maximum incidence of psychotic disorders after ketamine anesthesia in anosognosia syndrome and paranoia. Administration of a neurometabolic stimulator nootropil (pyracetam) prior to extubation in 143 patients decreased the incidence of psychotic disorders from 23.3% to 3.5%, which was confirmed by the results of psychophysiological tests. It is concluded that ketamine anesthesia is inadvisable in patients with anosognosia syndrome and paranoia. To prevent psychotic disorders it is recommended to administer nootropil that recovers intra- and inter-hemisphere connections in the brain.

DNA methylation plays a critical role in gene regulation, affecting cellular differentiation and disease progression, particularly in non-coding regions. However, predicting the epigenetic consequences of non-coding mutations at single-cell resolution remains a challenge. Existing tools have limited prediction capacity and struggle to capture dynamic, cell-type-specific regulatory changes that are crucial for understanding disease mechanisms.

Background: It has been over 20 years since a review of early psychosis services in New Zealand was completed, and it is unclear if services now meet international best practice. Furthermore, significant disparities in psychosis experiences exist in New Zealand, and it is unclear whether service structure might contribute to such disparities. Given the current restructuring of the health system in New Zealand, now is the optimal time to understand strengths and weaknesses in early psychosis care provision.

Globally, youth mental health services are evolving, with Australia's services presented as a leading exemplar. services were designed as enhanced primary care-based entities and were expected to collaborate with local acute, and specialist clinical and psychosocial services. The lack of large-scale health services trials necessitates understanding their impact through systematic monitoring and evaluation.
