El #autismo no debe ser un trastorno según la RANME ¿Es el autismo una discapacidad o una identidad? Un análisis crítico al comunicado de la RANME
La Real Academia Nacional de Medicina de España (RANME) en un comunicado, publicado el 29 de abril en https://t.co/pbg1A1CKU8
On the last day of the PGC #Bipolar work group take over, we want to focus on the people living with bipolar disorder every day. The Bipolar Commission and charity @BipolarUK has spent five years gathering evidence on the state of bipolar care in the UK. Here's what they found:

Tres grandes ensayos randomizados nos dejaron una respuesta clara… y no es la que esperábamos. Abro hilo científico 👇🧠📉
Do shared genes blur the lines across 14 psychiatric disorders? YES, according no a new paper in Nature. Genetic landscape refers to the full pattern of shared and unique DNA variants that influence risk across multiple conditions, rather than a single diagnosis. Strom and colleagues describe in a new paper in Nature how large scale genomic analyses across more than one million cases reveal deep genetic overlap among 14 psychiatric disorders.
Key Points:
- Shared genetic risk dominates as five major genomic factors explain about two thirds of inherited risk across the disorders.
- Schizophrenia and bipolar disorder cluster tightly together while depression, PTSD and anxiety form an internalizing group w/ very few disorder specific genes.
- Broad shared genes relate to early brain development, while more specific patterns map to excitatory neurons or oligodendrocyte biology, and are more dependent on the factor.
My take: As we amass gigantic datasets, looking at how genes blur can be super informative. Please read this paper and decide for yourself, as I am biased w/ a small part of the data drawn from our institutional collaboration (Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder and Tourette Syndrome Working Group of the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium). 1- Many psychiatric diagnoses share the same genetic roots, which may help explain why symptoms frequently overlap. 2- Genes linked across disorders tend to act early in brain development rather than appearing later in life. 3- Some groups of conditions like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder are genetically closer than their labels suggest. 4- Understanding shared biology could help health care providers target treatments that work across multiple conditions. 5- Will future care models move beyond rigid categories toward biology informed approaches that better match how our brains actually work?
