The incidence and prevalence of schizophrenia varies with latitude.
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to examine the association between latitude and the incidence and prevalence of schizophrenia based on two recently published systematic reviews. METHOD The analyses were based on 353 incidence rates (from 68 studies) and 258 prevalence estimates (from 94 studies). Exact latitude values were used for cities, and geocentroid values for other sites. Based on ...

متن کاملDiversity-stability relationship varies with latitude in zooplankton.
Analyses of temporal patterns of diversity across a wide range of taxa have found that more diverse communities often show smaller compositional changes over time. This generality indicates that high diversity is associated with greater temporal stability in species composition. We examined patterns of diversity and community stability in zooplankton time series data from 36 lakes sampled over ...
متن کاملThe Pathogenesis of Autoimmune Liver Disease.
BACKGROUND Autoimmune liver disease (AILD) encompasses 3 main distinct clinical diseases: autoimmune hepatitis, primary biliary cholangitis (formally known as cirrhosis, PBC) and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). These conditions are an important, yet under-appreciated cause of patient morbidity and mortality with ongoing unmet needs for further research and clinical advances. KEY MESSAGE...
