Healio (9/27, Gramigna) reports, “Premorbid factors including obstetric complications, personal psychiatric background and IQ may help predict which patients are at increased risk for early-onset psychosis,” researchers concluded after analyzing “data of 278 patients with a first episode of psychosis between ages seven and 35 years who participated in a multicenter prospective longitudinal study in Spain between Jan. 1, 2009, and Dec. 31, 2011.” The findings were published online Sept. 14 in the Journal of Clinical Psychiatry.
