Objective: Increased risk for arrhythmias and the association between arrhythmogenic markers symptom severity in antipsychotic-free patients with schizophrenia are understudied. We evaluated changes P-wave dispersion (PWD), corrected QT interval (QTc), QTc (QTcd), JT (JTc), JTc (JTcd), Tpeak-Tend (Tp-e), Tp-e/QT ratio. Method: Fifty-six who were at least 1 month 56 age- gendermatched healthy co...

Background—The guidelines on control and prevention of tuberculosis in the United Kingdom have been reviewed and updated. Methods—A subcommittee was appointed by the Joint Tuberculosis Committee (JTC) of the British Thoracic Society to revise the guidelines published in 1994 by the JTC, including representatives of the Royal College of Nursing, Public Health Medicine Environmental Group, and Me...

Metacognitive training (MCT) was developed to promote awareness of reasoning biases among patients with schizophrenia. While MCT has been translated into 31 languages, most MCT studies were conducted in Europe, including newer evidence recommending an individualized approach of delivery. As reasoning biases covered in MCT are separable processes and are associated with different symptoms, testi...

Central nociceptin/orphanin FQ (N/OFQ)-expressing neurones are abundantly expressed in the hypothalamus and limbic system and are implicated in the regulation of activity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA) and stress responses. We investigated the role of the endogenous N/OFQ receptor (NOP) system using the nonpeptidic NOP antagonist, JTC-801 [N-(4-amino-2-methylquinolin-6-yl)-2-(...

We did a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the magnitude and specificity of the "jumping to conclusions" (JTC) bias in psychosis and delusions. We examined the extent to which people with psychosis, and people with delusions specifically, required less information before making decisions. We examined (1) the average amount of information required to make a decision and (2) numb...
