Extractions: Adults and Mental Health Chapter Overview Mental Health in Adulthood Stressful Life Events ... References Our understanding of schizophrenia has evolved since its symptoms were first catalogued by German psychiatrist Emil Kraepelin in the late 19th century (Andreasen, 1997a). Even though the cause of this disorder remains elusive, its frightening symptoms and biological correlates have come to be quite well defined. Yet misconceptions abound about symptoms: schizophrenia is neither nor Table 4-6 Schizophrenia is characterized by profound disruption in cognition and emotion, affecting the most fundamental human attributes: language, thought, perception, affect, and sense of self. The array of symptoms, while wide ranging, frequently includes psychotic manifestations, such as hearing internal voices or experiencing other sensations not connected to an obvious source (hallucinations) and assigning unusual significance or meaning to normal events or holding fixed false personal beliefs (delusions). No single symptom is definitive for diagnosis; rather, the diagnosis encompasses a pattern of signs and symptoms, in conjunction with impaired occupational or social functioning (DSM-IV). Symptoms are typically divided into positive and negative symptoms (see Table 4-7 Table 4-6. DSM-IV diagnostic criteria for schizophrenia

schizophrenia is a severe and complex mental illness with a wide range of symptoms. schizophrenia. schizophrenia can be a devastating conditon.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/medical_notes/1079451.stm

Extractions: Schizophrenia can be a devastating conditon Schizophrenia is the most chronic and disabling of the major mental illnesses. It is a highly complex condition, and scientists are not even sure if it is one disorder, or a range of disorders, with different causes. Approximately one per cent of the population develop schizophrenia during their lives. Men and women are affected equally. Schizophrenia is not, as is commonly thought, split personality. What is schizophrenia? Schizophrenia is such a complex condition that few generalisations hold true for all people diagnosed as schizophrenic. Acute schizophrenics may suffer psychotic symptoms when they are completely unable to separate reality from unreal experiences. They may view the world as highly distorted, changeable and lacking reliable landmarks. Some patients may only have one psychotic episode, and others may have many episodes during a lifetime, but lead relatively normal lives during interim periods. Patients with chronic schizophrenia often do not fully recover normal functioning and may require long-term treatment, generally including medication, to control the symptoms.

A study of blood samples taken in the 1960s suggests a strong link between exposure to lead in the womb and schizophrenia in adulthood.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/3489037.stm

Extractions: Lead was widely used in petrol in the 1960s US scientists say they have found a link between exposure to lead in the womb and schizophrenia in adulthood. The discovery is based on a study of blood samples taken from pregnant American women in the 1960s when lead was still widely used in vehicle fuel. People whose mothers were exposed to high levels of the metal in exhaust fumes were more than twice as likely to develop schizophrenia as adults. The research was led by Dr Ezra Susser, from Columbia University in New York. He presented the work to the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in Washington State. "It's a preliminary finding, but an intriguing one," he told the BBC. "We think that people will now look at a variety of environmental toxins which can disrupt brain development, and see whether they are also related to the risk of schizophrenia."

http://www.rcpsych.ac.uk/info/mhgu/newmhgu23.htm

Extractions: Schizophrenia Printable Version What is schizophrenia? Schizophrenia is a serious mental disorder which affects thinking, emotions and behaviour. It is the most common form of severe mental illness and affects 1 person in every 100. It is rare before puberty, and is most likely to start between the ages of 15 and 35 years. The illness often lasts for a long time and can be very disabling. It tends to run in families. A child who has an affected parent has a 1 in 10 chance of developing schizophrenia. Viral infections during pregnancy, birth complications, growing up in inner cities and drug misuse also seem to play a part in the development of schizophrenia. The structure and chemistry of the brain may be affected, but there are no simple diagnostic tests for this at present. Families do not cause schizophrenia (as some people used to believe). Evidence from research suggests that stressful events, or difficult relationships in the family, can sometimes trigger an episode of schizophrenia in someone who is already likely to develop it because of genetic and other factors.
