Background: Multiple studies have demonstrated associations between psychiatric conditions and Parkinson's disease (PD) development; fewer have examined psychotic-spectrum disorders and PD development.
Objective: The objective was to assess the prevalence of psychotic-spectrum disorders with and without depression and anxiety preceding a PD diagnosis.
Methods: In this retrospective, case-control study of adults > 60 years of age, cases were identified by PD diagnosis and controls were identified in a 3:1 ratio by ambulatory encounter from 2015 to 2020. Psychiatric conditions were identified by diagnosis code up to 5 years prior to the index date. Conditional logistic regression was conducted to assess associations.
Results: Among 13,998 patients, the odds of PD were 76% (95% confidence interval = 1.39-2.22) higher among those with psychotic-spectrum diagnoses. An additional anxiety diagnosis was associated with 166% (95% confidence interval = 1.35-5.25) higher odds of PD.
Conclusions: Awareness of psychiatric conditions, including psychotic-spectrum disorders with comorbid anxiety, can stratify individuals at higher risk of developing PD.

Background: In recent years, researchers have reported crucial advances in the understanding of "Dissociative psychosis" and "Dissociative schizophrenia". While clinical studies in this area have been sustained for well, it remains to be established for some aspects that a clear and valid relationship exists between dissociation, childhood traumatic experiences, and schizophrenia or psychotic spectrum disorders.
Methods: To test such hypotheses, we divided the patients into two groups; the first group consisted of patients with psychotic disorders not otherwise specified (PNOS), and the second group consisted of schizophrenic patients.

Myelin abnormalities in white matter have been implicated in the pathophysiology of psychotic spectrum disorders (PSD), which are characterized by brain dysconnectivity as a core feature. Among evidence from in vivo MRI studies, diffusion imaging findings have largely supported disrupted white matter integrity in PSD; however, they are not specific to myelin changes. Using a multimodal imaging approach, the current study aimed to further delineate myelin and microstructural changes in the white matter of a young PSD cohort.

Background And Hypothesis: Among individuals living with psychotic disorders, social impairment is common, debilitating, and challenging to treat. While the roots of this impairment are undoubtedly complex, converging lines of evidence suggest that social motivation and pleasure (MAP) deficits play a central role. Yet most neuroimaging studies have focused on monetary rewards, precluding decisive inferences.

Learning Health Systems (LHSs) strive to continuously integrate innovations and evidence-based practices in healthcare settings, thereby enhancing programmatic and patient outcomes. Duration of untreated psychosis (DUP) is a variable worthy of empirical attention, as the construct has been identified as a leading predictor of psychotic spectrum disorder prognosis and, despite the proliferation of early intervention for psychosis (EIP) teams across the U.S.
