iHEAR is an @ERC_Research funded study about psychotic experiences in young people at @RCSI_Irl. #ihearstudy | website

[ihear study @ihearstudy]

Amazing milestone for @ERC_Research, we at #ihear are proud to be one of the #ERC10kGrantees!

With this funding we've been able to significantly progress research into psychotic experiences

Examining the association between prenatal and perinatal adversity and the psychotic experiences in childhood | Psychological Medicine | Cambridge Core - https://t.co/IWdSdU5X34

[Lorna Staines @LornaStaines]

Maternal behaviour and health during pregnancy can have adverse effects in the mental health of the children + an area that needs additional support

e.g. affordable healthcare in places like the USA (where #ABCD study was collected).

With thanks to @RCSI_Irl @ERC_Research

4. Compared to controls
Persistent PE 31% more likely in children whose mothers smoked, 48% more likely in those who used drugs & 8% more in those with more prenatal complications

Transient PE was 32% more likely in child whose mothers who smoked & 8% more for cumulative risk

[Lorna Staines @LornaStaines]

3. Cumulative number of prenatal adversities were associated with an increased frequency of distressing PE in childhood.

However, as with maternal smoking, this effect decreased as the child entered adolescence, suggesting specific risk factors for childhood PE

[Lorna Staines @LornaStaines]

Key finding
1. New prenatal risk factors - Severe maternal anaemia & UTI

2. Maternal smoking increased frequency of PEs, but the significance of this effect decreased as the child entered adolescence

[Lorna Staines @LornaStaines]

Prenatal and perinatal adversities have been frequently linked to subsequent #psychosis, less has been examined in psychotic experiences (PE)

We set out using 11,872 participants from the #ABCD study to examine 4 key questions in relation to distressing childhood PE

@Brokentalkers Up next the PSI-STAR PhDs held a panel about their interest in the field of psychosis, the challenges of starting a PhD, and what they hope to accomplish in the next year

Excellent discussion, and with many exciting projects coming up this year!

#PSISTAR2023

[PSI-STAR Study @psistar_study]

The morning was hosted by @Brokentalkers

All attendees worked individually and then as a group on the topic of "change and psychosis"

Passionate discussion about lived experience, clinical services, and the need to reduce the public stigma about psychosis
