Background:
First-episode psychotic disorders comprise a heterogeneous phenotype with a complex etiology involving numerous common small-effect genetic variations and a wide range of environmental exposures. We examined whether a family of schizophrenia spectrum disorder (FH-Sz) interacts with an environmental risk score (ERS-Sz) regarding the outcome of patients with non-affective first episode psychosis (NAFEP).
Methods:We included 288 patients with NAFEP who were evaluated after discharge from an intensive 2-year program. We evaluated three outcome measures: symptomatic remission, psychosocial functioning, and personal recovery. We analyzed the main and joint associations of a FH-Sz and the ERS-Sz on the outcomes by using the relative excess risk due to interaction (RERI) approach.
Results:A FH-Sz showed a significant association with poor symptomatic remission and psychosocial functioning outcomes, although there was no significant interaction between a FH-Sz and the ERS-Sz on these outcomes. The ERS-Sz did not show a significant association with poor symptomatic remission and psychosocial functioning outcomes, even though the magnitude of the interaction between ERS-Sz and FH-Sz with the later outcome was moderate (RERI = 6.89, 95% confidence interval −16.03 to 29.81). There was no association between a FH-Sz and the ERS-Sz and personal recovery.
Conclusions:Our results provide further empirical support regarding the contribution of FH-Sz to poor symptomatic remission and poor psychosocial functioning outcomes in patients with NAFEP.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disease, characterized mainly by elevated levels of blood glucose, associated with other important metabolic disturbances. Prevalence of DM is dramatically increasing worldwide, but especially in western countries, due to several factors as like diet, lifestyle and population aging.
Recent studies demonstrate that some diabetic patients have an increased risk of developing cognitive decline and dementia compared with healthy individuals. Although this may reflect brain changes as a consequence of diabetes, the coexistence of diabetes and cognitive dysfunction suggest common risk factors and causative mechanisms.
Cognitive dysfunction, including mild cognitive impairment and dementia, is increasingly recognized as an important comorbidity and complication of diabetes that affects patient’s health and diabetes management with several public health implications. The aim of our work is to give an overview of cognitive dysfunction in people with diabetes, describing its clinical features and their biochemical basis and future perspectives.

Background
Although diagnostic instability in first-episode psychosis (FEP) is of major concern, little is known about its determinants. This very long-term follow-up study aimed to examine the diagnostic stability of FEP diagnoses, the baseline predictors of diagnostic change and the timing of diagnostic change.
MethodsThis was a longitudinal and naturalistic study of 243 subjects with FEP who were assessed at baseline and reassessed after a mean follow-up of 21 years. The diagnostic stability of DSM-5 psychotic disorders was examined using prospective and retrospective consistencies, logistic regression was used to establish the predictors of diagnostic change, and survival analysis was used to compare time to diagnostic change across diagnostic categories.
ResultsThe overall diagnostic stability was 47.7%. Schizophrenia and bipolar disorder were the most stable diagnoses, with other categories having low stability. Predictors of diagnostic change to schizophrenia included a family history of schizophrenia, obstetric complications, developmental delay, poor premorbid functioning in several domains, long duration of untreated continuous psychosis, spontaneous dyskinesia, lack of psychosocial stressors, longer duration of index admission, and poor early treatment response. Most of these variables also predicted diagnostic change to bipolar disorder but in the opposite direction and with lesser effect sizes. There were no significant differences between specific diagnoses regarding time to diagnostic change. At 10-year follow-up, around 80% of the diagnoses had changed.
ConclusionsFEP diagnoses other than schizophrenia or bipolar disorder should be considered as provisional. Considering baseline predictors of diagnostic change may help to enhance diagnostic accuracy and guide therapeutic interventions.

This study aimed to detect intracellular trehalose in boar sperm that were cryopreserved with liposomes and conduct an analysis of its effects on some characteristics of thawed sperm, including rheological properties. First, soybean lecithin cholesterol-based liposomes were produced and characterized in the presence of 300 mM trehalose. Next, semen samples were frozen in two freezing media: a control medium with 300 mM trehalose and an experimental medium supplemented with 300 mM trehalose and 10% liposomes, both of which were thawed and then studied to ascertain their integrity, motility, rheological response, and trehalose quantities by testing two methods of spermatic lysis via high-performance liquid chromatography with an evaporative light-scattering detector (HPLC-ELSD). The results found spherical liposomes measuring 357 nm that were relatively stable in an aqueous medium and had an entrapment efficiency of 73%. An analysis of the cryopreserved ejaculates showed that their viability and motility did not significantly differ between groups (P > 0.05). The viscous response of the samples was influenced by the extracellular medium rather than by the freezing–thawing process, which resulted in a loss of interaction between the cells and cryoprotectants. Finally, intracellular trehalose levels were determined using HPLC-ELSD, with no differences observed (P > 0.05) when comparing both sperm lysis methods. The use of liposomes with trehalose appears to be a promising option for boar semen cryopreservation, with a marked effect on rheological properties. The proposed HPLC-ELSD method was effective for measuring trehalose in cryopreserved cell samples.

Aims
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is characterised by a recurrent course and high comorbidity rates. A lifespan perspective may therefore provide important information regarding health outcomes. The aim of the present study is to examine mental disorders that preceded 12-month MDD diagnosis and the impact of these disorders on depression outcomes.
MethodsData came from 29 cross-sectional community epidemiological surveys of adults in 27 countries (n = 80 190). The Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI) was used to assess 12-month MDD and lifetime DSM-IV disorders with onset prior to the respondent's age at interview. Disorders were grouped into depressive distress disorders, non-depressive distress disorders, fear disorders and externalising disorders. Depression outcomes included 12-month suicidality, days out of role and impairment in role functioning.
ResultsAmong respondents with 12-month MDD, 94.9% (s.e. = 0.4) had at least one prior disorder (including previous MDD), and 64.6% (s.e. = 0.9) had at least one prior, non-MDD disorder. Previous non-depressive distress, fear and externalising disorders, but not depressive distress disorders, predicted higher impairment (OR = 1.4–1.6) and suicidality (OR = 1.5–2.5), after adjustment for sociodemographic variables. Further adjustment for MDD characteristics weakened, but did not eliminate, these associations. Associations were largely driven by current comorbidities, but both remitted and current externalising disorders predicted suicidality among respondents with 12-month MDD.
ConclusionsThese results illustrate the importance of careful psychiatric history taking regarding current anxiety disorders and lifetime externalising disorders in individuals with MDD.

The Andean region of Ecuador is the place of origin of many maize landraces grouped into 24 races. Definition of priorities for maize diversity conservation in this region can be supported by the spatial identification of areas with a high eco-geographical and phenotypic diversity. Six hundred thirty-six maize samples were morphologically characterized using 14 descriptors and assigned to a distinctive race. Additionally, sampled farms were characterized by 12 environmental variables. From these data, maps of morphological and eco-geographical diversity were obtained by using techniques to determine eco-geographical and phenotypic distances and applying them to each geographical neighbourhood. The races Patillo Ecuatoriano, Racimo de Uva and Uchima exhibited high intra-racial morphological variation, particularly in the shape of the ear, kernel row layout, cob diameter and total kernel number. The highest number of different races was observed in Imbabura, Azuay and Chimborazo provinces. The highest levels of morphological diversity were found in three cells (10 × 10 km), located in Pichincha, Chimborazo and Loja provinces. Two ecological niches, located in Loja province, showed high levels of eco-geographical diversity. A comparison between diversity maps revealed shared hotspots of morphological and eco-geographical diversity in the central and southwest areas of Imbabura province. The Andean highlands of Ecuador are an optimal refuge for the conservation of maize diversity, and the criteria of eco-geographical and morphological diversity and race richness should be considered when defining priority in situ conservation areas.

Healthcare workers (HCWs) not fulfilling the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) case definition underwent severe acute respiratory coronavirus virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) screening. Risk of exposure, adherence to personal protective equipment (PPE), and symptoms were assessed. In total, 2,000 HCWs were screened: 5.5% were positive for SARS-CoV-2 by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). There were no differences in PPE use between SARS-CoV-2–positive and –negative HCWs (adherence, >90%). Nursing and kitchen staff were independently associated with positive SARS-CoV-2 results.

Background
Previous literature supports antipsychotics’ (AP) efficacy in acute first-episode psychosis (FEP) in terms of symptomatology and functioning but also a cognitive detrimental effect. However, regarding functional recovery in stabilised patients, these effects are not clear. Therefore, the main aim of this study is to investigate dopaminergic/anticholinergic burden of (AP) on psychosocial functioning in FEP. We also examined whether cognitive impairment may mediate these effects on functioning.
MethodsA total of 157 FEP participants were assessed at study entry, and at 2 months and 2 years after remission of the acute episode. The primary outcomes were social functioning as measured by the functioning assessment short test (FAST). Cognitive domains were assessed as potential mediators. Dopaminergic and anticholinergic AP burden on 2-year psychosocial functioning [measured with chlorpromazine (CPZ) and drug burden index] were independent variables. Secondary outcomes were clinical and socio-demographic variables.
ResultsMediation analysis found a statistical but not meaningful contribution of dopaminergic receptor blockade burden to worse functioning mediated by cognition (for every 600 CPZ equivalent points, 2-year FAST score increased 1.38 points). Regarding verbal memory and attention, there was an indirect effect of CPZ burden on FAST (b = 0.0045, 95% CI 0.0011–0.0091) and (b = 0.0026, 95% CI 0.0001–0.0006) respectively. However, only verbal memory post hoc analyses showed a significant indirect effect (b = 0.009, 95% CI 0.033–0.0151) adding premorbid IQ as covariate. We did not find significant results for anticholinergic burden.
ConclusionCPZ dose effect over functioning is mediated by verbal memory but this association appears barely relevant.

Background
Aripiprazole once-monthly is an LAI formulation of aripiprazole that is currently approved in the USA and Europe for the treatment of schizophrenia. Some studies have reported a decline in hospital admissions and emergency use after initiation on long-acting injectable (LAI) antipsychotics, but the effects of using recently commercialised LAI aripiprazole remains uncertain.
AimsTo characterize the impact of ALAI initiation on number of hospitalizations and visits to the emergency service, among patients suffering from schizophrenia attending regularly to psychiatric consultations of Gregorio Marañón University General Hospital (Madrid, Spain).
MethodsPatients initiated on (ALAI) were studied in an observational mirror-image design to assess changes in number of hospitalizations and visits to the emergency service in the 12months pre- vs 12months post-depot initiation. Other sociodemographic, physical and clinical variables such as age, gender, weight, blood pressure and presence of dual disorders were also gathered. Variables were collected reviewing clinical records.
Wilcoxon test was used to assess hospitalizations and visits to the emergency. Paired t-tests were used to assess changes in weight and blood pressure. Non parametric Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare aripiprazole doses between genders and in order to assess de influence of dual disorders. In order to perform the statistical analysis, IBM SPSS statistics v.20 was used.
Results31 patients were included in the final analysis. Mean age was 44.67 (SD=15.57) years. Most of the patients were male (54.8% vs 45.2%). 71% were previously receiving oral antipsychotics treatment, whereas 29% were receiving other LAI antipsychotic: no significant differences were observed when comparing hospitalizations (p=0.74) or emergency use (p=0.98) in the 12months post-initiation between these groups. Mean dosage was 352.67mg/28days (SD=0.461), and 38.7% needed an adjustment during the first year of treatment (dosage increased in 76.9%). A combination of two or more antipsychotics was prescribed in 64.5% of the patients. Mean psychiatric number of hospitalizations a year declined from 0.483/year pre-initiation to 0.224/year post-initiation (P<0.05), whereas mean visits a year to the emergency psychiatric service declined from 1.419 pre-initiation to 1.032 post-initiation (P<0.1). No significant changes in weight (p=0.82), systolic (p=0.56) or diastolic (p=0.29) blood pressure were observed. No gender differences in dosage were observed (p=0.246). Suffering from dual disorders had no influence on dosage either (p=0.68).
ConclusionsLAI aripiprazole initiation appears to provide a benefit decreasing hospitalization needs and emergency services consumption and it was well tolerated. This data supports previous evidence indicating superiority of LAI antipsychotics.

Background
Cognitive deficits are a core feature of early stages in schizophrenia. However, the extent to which antipsychotic (AP) have a deleterious effect on cognitive performance remains under debate. We aim to investigate whether anticholinergic loadings and dose of AP drugs in first episode of psychosis (FEP) in advanced phase of remission are associated with cognitive impairment and the differences between premorbid intellectual quotient (IQ) subgroups.
MethodsTwo hundred and sixty-six patients participated. The primary outcomes were cognitive dimensions, dopaminergic/anticholinergic load of AP [in chlorpromazine equivalents (Eq-CPZ) and the Anticholinergic Risk Scale (ARS), respectively].
ResultsImpairments in processing speed, verbal memory and global cognition were significantly associated with high Eq-CPZ and verbal impairment with high ARS score. Moreover, this effect was higher in the low IQ subgroup.
ConclusionsClinicians should be aware of the potential cognitive impairment associated with AP in advanced remission FEP, particularly in lower premorbid IQ patients.

Background
The patterns of comorbidity among mental disorders have led researchers to model the underlying structure of psychopathology. While studies have suggested a structure including internalizing and externalizing disorders, less is known with regard to the cross-national stability of this model. Moreover, little data are available on the placement of eating disorders, bipolar disorder and psychotic experiences (PEs) in this structure.
MethodsWe evaluated the structure of mental disorders with data from the World Health Organization Composite International Diagnostic Interview, including 15 lifetime mental disorders and six PEs. Respondents (n = 5478–15 499) were included from 10 high-, middle- and lower middle-income countries across the world aged 18 years or older. Confirmatory factor analyses (CFAs) were used to evaluate and compare the fit of different factor structures to the lifetime disorder data. Measurement invariance was evaluated with multigroup CFA (MG-CFA).
ResultsA second-order model with internalizing and externalizing factors and fear and distress subfactors best described the structure of common mental disorders. MG-CFA showed that this model was stable across countries. Of the uncommon disorders, bipolar disorder and eating disorder were best grouped with the internalizing factor, and PEs with a separate factor.
ConclusionsThese results indicate that cross-national patterns of lifetime common mental-disorder comorbidity can be explained with a second-order underlying structure that is stable across countries and can be extended to also cover less common mental disorders.

Summary
Introduction
When you get to the city of Ribeirao Preto there is a large billboard along the highway that reads: ‘Welcome to Ribeirao Preto, Brazilian capital of agribusiness’. Further ahead, a contrasting sign reads: ‘Welcome to the Mario Lago Land Reform Settlement. “We don't require a lot. We only need one another” – Carlito Maia’. The contrast in the scenery is also striking: thousands of kilometres of sugar cane contrast sharply with the diverse production that is visible in the Mario Lago Settlement. This chapter explores an example of community development achieved by a group of families who are part of the Landless Workers Movement and who occupied land in Ribeirao Preto, a region in which almost all of the arable land is in the hands of the sugar cane industry.
Historical context
After the 1964 military coup, the Brazilian military–civilian regime brought together two basic strategies for the countryside: one economic, the other military. The economic strategy was to industrialise the entire country and to modernise agriculture, meeting any manifestation of popular dissatisfaction with brute force. In this way, the organised peasantry – such as the Ligas Camponesas, or Peasant Leagues, which flourished during the 1950s – were brutally repressed and extinguished by the military (Welch, 2009). During the 1970s, the modernisation of agriculture was based mostly on Green Revolution practices and the expansion of the agricultural frontier, with a policy of providing favourable credits for capital; this created the conditions for the largescale agroindustrial production of commodities destined for foreign markets. The end result was a rural exodus (Chase, 1999) and an intense cycle of proletarianisation in the countryside.
In the southern region of Brazil, the modernisation of agriculture and the expansion of monocultures such as soy devastated the smallscale production of the majority of farming families, particularly those of European immigrants and their descendants, who were subjected to the same extremely violent methods of expulsion as those in the north. In the southeast – for example, in the state of Sao Paulo – family-based production was slowly destroyed by the invasion of monoculture, principally sugar cane.

Summary
The Morris Justice Project (MJP) works in an area of New York City that is internationally renowned for its place in urban music and culture as much as the stigma that is associated with its reputation. MJP is an informal collection of collaborators and, through its members, is connected with an academic institution. The Project engaged in research-driven activism which attempted to change aggressive community policing methods. One core idea was to use participatory action research methods to generate fresh data on the official policy of ‘stop and frisk’ of residents who were seen as suspect by police. This data was then discussed with a wider set of local people, and used by MJP as part of a city-wide movement for reform of New York Police Department's ‘Broken Windows’ and ‘zero tolerance’ policies. Theirs is a powerful and uplifting story of community mobilisation for social justice.
With 12 authors actively involved in producing and editing, this writing team is itself an example of co-produced knowledge from the start of the inquiry through to and including writing this contribution. It is an illustration of what it could mean for all parties to take seriously multiple forms of expertise. This is not only about elites or professional experts respecting lived expertise, but includes community experts advocating the value of research, or what one participant in the MJP describes eloquently as ‘coming from a place of knowing’.
My first time in the neighbourhood was also my first introduction to Jackie and Fawn. It was quickly interrupted because two of their friend's sons were just taken to the 44th police precinct for no apparent reason and another friend's son had a court date, in which the attorney forgot to show. There was a sense of urgency and frustration but also a basic lack of surprise. I remember how impressed I was with how highly coordinated and responsive the mothers were. In minutes, over texts and phone conversations, some went to the court and some went to the precinct. It all suggested this was not their first time. Of course, we found out later it wasn’t. (Brett)
The Morris Justice Project brought together a diverse collective of academics, lawyers, artists, activists and residents of a South Bronx neighbourhood outraged by New York Police Department's (NYPD) aggressive use of ‘Broken Windows’ policing.

The structural integrity of nuclear fuel cladding is affected by the precipitation of hydrides during operation, which may embrittle the cladding. The aim of this work is to obtain the mechanical and fracture properties of the cladding as a function of the hydrogen content and testing temperature. To this end, the embrittlement caused by circumferential hydrides was simulated on unirradiated fuel cladding samples in the laboratory. The structural integrity of the cladding was assessed at different temperatures (20, 135 and 300ºC), by using the ring compression test. The mechanical properties and the fracture energy were calculated from the experimental load vs. displacement curves, by means of a finite element model which incorporates the cohesive crack model.

Objective – The aim of the present study is to provide an epidemiological study about suicide in Verbano-CusioOssola province, between January 1990 and December 2000. Design – The present study is based on the acquisition of data through the examination of model 45, that registers all the cases of violent death and suicide, filed in Verbania Republic Procuration. Setting – The Verbano-Cusio-Ossola province extends 2,255 Km2 and counts 161,248 inhabitants. The Procuration in Verbania has territorial jurisdiction on the whole province of our study. Main outcome measures – The data obtained were presented in terms of descriptive analysis, evaluation of standardised rates of the province of Verbano-Cusio-Ossola. In order to appreciate the differences in comparison with the mean rates of northern Italy, Standardised Mortality Rates (SMRs) with the confidential intervals (IC 95%) have been used. Results – In the eleven years period considered, 297 cases of suicide were notified at the Court with a rate of 16.74 per 100,000 inhabitants. The trend of suicide in the period examined is heterogeneous with significant differences between males and females. The analysis of SMRs points out that the incidence of suicide is higher in the province of VCO than in Italy in the same decade and that this difference is mostly due to an higher rate of suicide among women. The analysis of social-demographic parameters of the examined population confirms the data from international literature: suicide is more present in elderly, in widowers and in the retired. Conclusions – The present study means to provide a description of the suicide phenomenon, in a specific geographical and cultural context, in order to point out the problematic sides in a diagnostic-clinical point of view that may be an incentive to a larger preventive care.

Background: In an aging population an increasing number of elderly caregivers will be called upon to provide care over a long period, during which time they will be burdened both by caregiving and by the physiological effects of their own aging. Among them there will be more aged male caregivers, who will probably be less prepared than women to become caregivers. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between caregivers’ gender, age, family income, living arrangements and social support as independent variables, and depressive symptoms, comorbidities, level of frailty, grip strength, walking speed and social isolation, as dependent variables.
Methods: 176 elderly people (123 women) were selected from a sample of a population-based study on frailty (n = 900), who had cared for a spouse (79.3%) and/or parents (31.4%) in the past five years (mean age = 71.8 ± 4.86 years; mean monthly family income in minimum wages = 4.64 ± 5.14). The study used questionnaires and self-report scales, grip strength and walking speed tests.
Results: 65% of participants evaluated caregiving as being very stressful. Univariate analyses of regression showed low family income as a risk factor for depression; being female and low perceived social support as a risk for comorbidities; being 80 years of age and above for low grip strength; and being male for social isolation indicated by discontinuity of activities and social roles. In multivariate analyses of regression, poverty arose as a risk factor for depression and being female for comorbidities.
Conclusions: Gender roles, age, income and social support interacted with physical and emotional health, and with the continuity of social participation of elderly caregivers. Special attention must be given to male caregivers.

The meeting was unfortunately scheduled for the afternoon of the last day of the General Assembly, so attendance was low. Nevertheless, we had some good discussions.
