The nucleus accumbens (NAc) is part of the ventral striatum and plays a major role in motivation and goal-directed behaviour. Increasing evidence implicates impairments in accumbal function in anxiety and depression, two conditions that are commonly accomp ...
High comorbidity rates, especially mental-physical comorbidity, constitute an increasing health care burden, with women and men being differentially affected. To gain an overview of comorbidity rates stratified by sex across a range of different conditions ...
22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) contributes dramatically to increased genetic risk for psychopathology, and in particular schizophrenia. Sleep disorders, including obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), are also highly prevalent, making 22q11DS a unique model ...
Recent advances in machine learning (ML) promise far-reaching improvements across medical care, not least within psychiatry. While to date no psychiatric application of ML constitutes standard clinical practice, it seems crucial to get ahead of these devel ...
Background Coercion in psychiatry is a controversial issue. Identifying its predictors and their interaction using traditional statistical methods is difficult, given the large number of variables involved. The purpose of this study was to use machine-lear ...
