Psychosis: Goals of Pharmacotherapy01:26

Psychosis: Goals of Pharmacotherapy

542
Antipsychotic drugs are a crucial treatment method for acute and chronic psychoses, bipolar illness, and behavioral disorders. The selection of these drugs depends on several factors, including the state of the disease, clinical judgment, possible drug interactions, and the patient's sensitivity to adverse effects. In immediate scenarios, such as delirium and dementia, short-term treatment with low doses of high-potency typical or atypical agents can effectively manage symptom exacerbation.

The Eukaryotic Promoter Region02:40

The Eukaryotic Promoter Region

18.9K
The eukaryotic promoter region is a segment of DNA located upstream of a gene. It contains an RNA polymerase binding site, a transcription start site, and several cis-regulatory sequences.  The proximal promoter region is located in the vicinity of the gene and has cis-regulatory sequences and the core promoter. The core promoter is the binding site for RNA polymerase and is usually located between -35 and +35 nucleotides from the transcription start site. The distal promoter regions are...

Psychosis: Pathophysiology of Schizophrenia and Other Psychotic Disorders

2.0K
Schizophrenia is a neurodevelopmental disorder whose origins are rooted in complex genetic components. Despite our burgeoning understanding, the pathophysiology of this disorder remains incompletely deciphered.
Researchers have identified genetic factors that increase susceptibility to schizophrenia, underscoring the intricate interplay between genetics and environment in disease development. At the core of schizophrenia's pathophysiology is excessive dopaminergic neurotransmission within...

Anaphase Promoting Complex00:50

Anaphase Promoting Complex

3.5K
The stepwise destruction of specific proteins is necessary for the progression and completion of the cell cycle. Such proteins are ubiquitinated by ubiquitin ligases and then subsequently destroyed by the proteasome. The SCF (Skp1/Cullin/F-box) and the anaphase-promoting complex (APC) are two important ubiquitin ligases involved in cell cycle progression. While SCF is active throughout the cell cycle, APC gets activated during metaphase to anaphase transition. Cdc20 or Cdh1 binds to APC and...

Area of Science:

  • Psychiatry
  • Mental Health Research
  • Well-being Studies

Background:

  • Traditional psychosis treatment prioritizes clinical recovery (symptom reduction, functional improvement).
  • Growing recognition of personal recovery (subjective experiences) alongside clinical recovery.
  • Positive psychiatry broadens focus to include promoting well-being.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Examine well-being conceptualization in psychosis treatment.
  • Investigate the relationship between well-being and clinical recovery.
  • Highlight challenges and implications for mental health services in promoting well-being.

Main Methods:

  • Conceptual analysis of well-being in psychosis.
  • Review of existing frameworks for recovery and well-being.
  • Exploration of implications for mental health service delivery.

Main Results:

  • Well-being in psychosis is complex, individual, and more than absence of illness.
  • Clinical and personal recovery processes can contribute to well-being.
  • A new framework for well-being in psychosis shows overlap with the CHIME framework for personal recovery.

Conclusions:

  • Interventions targeting personal recovery may promote well-being in psychosis.
  • Mental health services face challenges in balancing symptom reduction with promoting well-being.
  • Well-being attainment is a desirable treatment goal and potential protective factor against serious mental illness.
