Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia is a chronic mental disorder that causes distortions in perception, thought, emotions, language, and behavior. It is characterized by positive symptoms like hallucinations and delusions, negative symptoms like reduced speech and emotional expression, and cognitive symptoms like impaired executive functioning and attention. The causes involve both genetic and environmental factors. Family, twin, and adoption studies show schizophrenia runs in families and has high heritability among identical twins, indicating a strong genetic component. Brain abnormalities in schizophrenia patients include differences in dopamine activity and brain structure in regions involved in processing dopamine. While the exact causes are unknown, evidence points to both genetic and neurological factors contributing to the disorder.

Schizophrenia is a chronic brain disorder that affects about 1% of people at some point in their lives. It often first develops between ages 16-30. While genes are a factor, environmental influences like prenatal conditions or substance use also contribute. Symptoms include hallucinations, delusions, disorganized thinking/speech, and reduced emotional expression. Treatments include antipsychotic medications, therapy like cognitive behavioral therapy, and potentially institutional care. The exact causes are unknown but likely involve both genetic and environmental factors interacting during brain development.
Schizophrenia
This document provides an overview of schizophrenia, including its history, symptoms, causes, types, and treatment. Some key points:
- Schizophrenia was first identified in 1887 but can be traced back thousands of years. It is characterized by disturbances in thinking, emotion, and perception.
- Symptoms usually begin between ages 15-25 for males and later for females. Genetics and viral infections during pregnancy can play a role in causes.
- There are five types of schizophrenia with different symptom presentations. Treatment involves antipsychotic medication, therapy, social support, and lifestyle management. With proper treatment and management, many people diagnosed with schizophrenia can live normal, happy lives.
Schizophrenia
This document is a fictional account of schizophrenia written for a high school psychology class. It provides information about the symptoms and experiences of living with schizophrenia, including hearing voices, difficulty trusting others and functioning socially. It discusses the history and causes of schizophrenia, how it typically develops in late adolescence/early adulthood, and treatments like medications that can help manage symptoms in many cases. The document aims to provide insight into what it's like to live with schizophrenia from the perspective of someone experiencing it.
Lecture 4 Schizophrenia Disorders
The document provides information about schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders:
1. Schizophrenia is characterized by disturbed thoughts, speech, behavior, social withdrawal, poor grooming, abnormal affect, and must include symptoms for 6 months including at least one period of actual psychosis.
2. Other psychotic disorders discussed include brief psychotic disorder, schizophreniform disorder, schizoaffective disorder, delusional disorder, and shared psychotic disorder.
3. Treatment involves antipsychotic medication, psychotherapy, and long-term support, with prognosis varying between disorders but generally chronic in nature.
Schizophrenia Presentation
Disorganized schizophrenia is a severe subtype of schizophrenia characterized by incoherent and illogical thoughts and behaviors that prevent daily functioning. Signs include disorganized thinking and speech, inappropriate behavior, lack of emotion, and delusions or hallucinations. It is diagnosed using criteria from the DSM including evidence of disorganized speech, behavior, blunted emotions, and emotions inappropriate for situations. The causes are likely genetic and environmental factors combined with imbalances in neurotransmitters like dopamine.

Schizophrenia is a severe brain disorder that causes abnormal interpretations of reality, characterized by hallucinations, delusions, and disordered thinking. Some key factors that may contribute include genetics and viral infections during pregnancy. Common delusions include feelings of being harassed or plotted against, while hallucinations often involve hearing voices. Treatment involves antipsychotic medications and therapy, and many people with schizophrenia can still live normal lives by adhering to their treatment plans.
Schizophrenia Presentation (Brianna Jane Mainprize)
The document provides information about a life skills program for a client named Kayla who has been diagnosed with schizophrenia. It details Kayla's symptoms and behaviors. The proposed program involves various classes and activities aimed at improving Kayla's life skills, coping strategies, and ability to manage her illness, including money management, problem solving, exercise, and creative writing. An evaluation after two months finds that Kayla's behavior has improved, though she still struggles with certain goals like working with others, and will need to remain in the program.

Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia is a chronic mental illness that causes changes in thinking, perception, emotions, language, sense of self and behavior. Common symptoms include hallucinations, delusions, disorganized speech and behavior, lack of motivation and impaired cognitive skills. It is diagnosed through medical exams, history, lab tests and ruling out other potential causes. While the causes are not fully understood, genetics and environmental factors like stress, drug use and complications during birth are thought to play a role.
The Truth About Schizophrenia
The document discusses common myths and facts about schizophrenia. It states that schizophrenia is a physical disease, not a split personality, and that with proper treatment and support many people recover from it. While the causes are not fully understood, there is a genetic component. The onset is typically between ages 15-25, not over 50. People with schizophrenia are no more likely to be violent than the general population.

Understanding of the brain -Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia is a brain disorder that affects thinking, behavior and emotion. It is caused by genetic and environmental factors interacting. Some signs include hallucinations, disorganized speech and behavior, and lack of normal emotional expression. The disorder is associated with abnormalities in brain structure and function. While the causes are not fully understood, schizophrenia results from complex interactions in the brain rather than a single region. Effective treatment and management of symptoms is possible for many with the disorder.
Presentation schizophrenia
- Paranoid schizophrenia is the most common type worldwide, characterized by stable delusions like paranoia, often accompanied by auditory hallucinations and perceptual disturbances. Symptoms like disturbed affect, volition, speech and catatonia are not prominent.
- Common delusions include persecution, reference, exalted birth, special mission, bodily change or jealousy. Auditory hallucinations may threaten the patient or command them, or be non-verbal noises. Other rare hallucinations can involve smell, taste, or bodily sensations. Visual hallucinations can also occur but are not predominant.
Paranoid schizophrenia
Paranoid schizophrenia is characterized by predominantly positive symptoms of schizophrenia, including delusions and hallucinations. These debilitating symptoms blur the line between what is real and what isn't, making it difficult for the person to lead a typical life.
Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia is a serious mental illness that affects how a person thinks, feels and behaves. It is a brain disorder that affects approximately 70 million people worldwide and 3.1 million people in the United States. While the exact causes are unknown, it is thought to involve genetic and environmental factors that disrupt the brain's chemistry and ability to interpret reality. Effective treatment involves medication and therapy to manage symptoms and allow people to lead productive lives.
Schizophrenia Powerpoint
Schizophrenia is a psychotic disorder that affects about 1% of people worldwide, deteriorating personal, social, and occupational functioning through strange perceptions, disturbed thought processes, unusual emotions, and motor abnormalities. It causes symptoms like auditory hallucinations, disorganized thinking, paranoia, delusions, and disorganized speech. Schizophrenia is diagnosed based on symptoms and can be of five main types, and both biological and psychological factors may contribute to its causes and treatment may involve medications and therapy.

Schizoaffective
This document discusses schizoaffective disorder, including its diagnostic criteria which involves a major mood episode concurrent with or occurring during schizophrenia symptoms. It notes the lack of definitive evidence on how to treat patients with schizoaffective disorder. Physicians must treat based on symptoms present. Medications found effective include olanzapine or other antipsychotics combined with mood stabilizers for manic symptoms or antidepressants for depressive symptoms, though antidepressants require caution to avoid switching to mania. Therapy is also an essential part of treatment.
Schizoaffective Disorder
An quick overview on Schizoaffective Disorder presented by Amelie Kanovsky from All Saints University School of Medicine. ( Jan-Feb 2015).
Schizoaffective Disorders
This case presentation discusses a 50-year-old African American female patient admitted to the hospital for schizoaffective disorder, manic episode. The patient has a history of schizoaffective disorder and has been living in a nursing home. The goals of hospitalization are to decrease restlessness, irritability, worry, anxiety and increase self-control and medication compliance. Interventions include medication management with Lamictal and Invega, nursing care, social work support, and education. The presentation provides context on schizoaffective disorder, symptoms, course, and treatment goals for managing the manic episode.
Schizoaffective disorder DSM5
Schizoaffective disorder involves a combination of schizophrenia symptoms like delusions or hallucinations along with mood episodes. To be diagnosed, the criteria for schizophrenia must be met along with a major depressive or manic episode. Symptoms must be present for at least part of the illness without a mood episode. Onset is usually in early adulthood. Females are more likely to experience the depressive type. Differential diagnosis involves ruling out other medical or psychiatric causes of psychotic and mood symptoms. Comorbidity with other disorders like substance use or anxiety is common.
Stress & Adaptation
Homeostasis involves feedback mechanisms that help regulate the body's response to disruptions. The medulla oblongata, pituitary gland, and reticular formation are involved in controlling vital functions like respiration and circulation. Negative feedback works to restore homeostasis, while positive feedback triggers additional hormone secretion. Stress can lead to disease if the body cannot adapt. Nursing interventions for shock include maintaining airway and circulation, administering IV fluids and blood products, and closely monitoring the patient.
Stress and adaptatiton
This document discusses stress and adaptation. It defines stress as the body's response to changes in its normal balanced state. There are three stages of the general adaptation syndrome: alarm reaction, resistance, and exhaustion. Stress can be positive or negative depending on its duration and intensity. Psychological adaptation involves mechanisms like anxiety and coping strategies to deal with stressors and maintain homeostasis. Nursing interventions aim to reduce anxiety and promote adaptive responses to stressors.

This document discusses schizophrenia, including:
1) It typically onset in late teens to mid 30s, with a lifetime prevalence of 0.3-0.7%. Genetic and biochemical factors may play a role in development.
2) Symptoms are divided into positive (hallucinations, delusions) and negative (lack of emotion, reduced motivation). Cognitive symptoms also occur.
3) The DSM-5 criteria requires two or more symptoms such as delusions, hallucinations or disorganized speech for at least one month. Subtypes include paranoid, disorganized and catatonic schizophrenia.
Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia refers to a serious mental illness where people interpret reality abnormally. Symptoms include hallucinations, delusions, and irrational thinking and behavior that interfere with daily functioning and can be disabling.
Biological causes like genes or hormonal unbalance often lead to schizophrenia. Poor nutrition, problems during fetal development, birth complications, immune reactions, exposure to environmental toxins, living in poverty, family dysfunction, severe stress, as well as exposure to viruses in utero have also been suggested as events that may activate an underlying predisposition for schizophrenia.
For that reason, antipsychotic medication remains the first line treatment with other forms of treatment used to support and enhance its effects.
Purpose:
The purpose of this webinar is to raise awareness about sufferings of schizophrenic patients and help them with their basic needs to create a soothing life for them.

Somatoform and schizophrenia disorders
Somatoform disorders
A disorder in which people have physical illnesses or complaints that cannot be fully explained by actual medical conditions
Dissociative disorders
A personality disorder marked by a disturbance in the integration of identity, memory, or consciousness.
Historically, both somatoform and dissociative disorders used to be categorized as hysterical neurosis
in psychoanalytic theory neurotic disorders result from underlying unconscious conflicts, anxiety that resulted from those conflicts and ego defense mechanisms
"schizophrenia" "split mind" but it refers to a disruption of the usual balance of emotions and thinking.
Schizophrenia is chronic and a severe brain disorder in which people interpret reality abnormally. Schizophrenia may result in some combination of hallucinations, delusions, and extremely disordered thinking and behavior .
Chapter 4 psychological disorders-final-30.05.2021

Psychological disorders
Psychological disorders can be understood from biological, psychological, and socio-cultural perspectives. They are classified in the DSM and include anxiety disorders like generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, and PTSD. Mood disorders involve disturbances in mood like depression and bipolar disorder. Schizophrenia impacts thinking, perception, communication and behavior with symptoms like delusions and hallucinations. Personality disorders are chronic maladaptive patterns grouped into odd/eccentric, dramatic/emotionally problematic, and chronic fearfulness clusters which include paranoid, antisocial, avoidant, and obsessive-compulsive types.
Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia is a chronic mental illness that causes changes in thinking, perception, emotions, language, sense of self and behavior. Core symptoms include hallucinations, delusions, and thought disorders. It develops gradually and can cause a person to withdraw from reality and social interactions. Schizophrenia has no single known cause but likely involves a combination of genetic, environmental, and neurological factors. It is diagnosed through evaluations of symptoms, medical history, and examinations to rule out other potential causes.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

Identification and nursing management of congenital malformations Novas diretrizes da OMS para os cuidados perinatais de mais qualidade
Novas diretrizes da OMS para os cuidados perinatais de mais qualidadeProf. Marcus Renato de Carvalho
Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.
Esta publicação só está disponível em inglês até o momento.
