Q

Neuropsychiatry is concerned with the study of psychiatric illnesses or symptoms associated with brain abnormalities.
Psychosis is one condition in which such an interaction between psychology and biology is well-studied.
The DSM-5 is a useful diagnostic tool with clinical utility, but it does not fully describe a condition/disorder. Heterogeneity and overlap are the rule rather than exception. Initiatives such as RDoC might be better suited to capture the complex nature of psychopathology.

Q

dopamine hypothesis

A

wss too much dopamine kan leiden tot symptoms of schizophrenia, vooral de positive symptoms.
gebaseerd op de werking van antipsychotica: want antagonisten werken.

Q

wat doet dopamine?

A

dopamine causes things in the environment to become more salient. -> they stand out more. therefore lets you focus on a restrictive range of things. therefore these things may stand out more:
- abberant sense of novelty
- abnormal assignment of salience to stimuli and internal representatives

Q

model van dopamine hypothesis ongeveer

A

predispositions -> dysregulated firing and/or release of dopamine -> aberrant sense of novelty and abnormal assignment of salience to stimuli and internal representations -> delusions are a cognitive scheme that the patient develops to explain aberrant salience experience -> when this aberrant salience captures behaviour or causes distress -> leads to attention.

antipsychotics block dopamine, and dampen the salience of these symptoms (+ may also dampen the motivational salience of normal events) -> the decrease in salience leads to less symptoms via extinction and unlearning

Q

limitations of the dopamine hypothesis

A
  1. Mainly related to positive symptoms (hallucinations, delusions, …)
  2. Not in all patients (treatment non-responders)
  3. Does not explain the efficacy of some medications (clozapine)
  4. Simplistic view of reality

Q

other lines of evidence for glutamate

A
  • Glutamate genes involved in schizophrenia
  • Neuroimaging studies
  • Excessive glutamate might account for synaptic loss in schizophrenia (SIRS)
23
Q

kijken naar glutamate hypothesis in docs

A

oke

24
Q

waar leidt lowered glutamic transmission to?

A

negative symptoms (autism, inactivity)
promoting serotonin transmission
lowered GABA transmission

25
Q

waar leidt lowered GABA transmission toe

A

promoting DA transmission

26
Q

waar leidt promoting DA transmission toe

A

positive symptoms (delusion, hallucination)

27
Q

The dopamine hypothesis of schizophrenia states that dopaminergic abnormalities (in particular, excessive striatal dopamine) underlie schizophrenia and other psychoses

A

oke

28
Q

Dopamine alone cannot explain why individuals experience psychotic symptoms. We need to understand its relationship to other neurotransmitters (e.g., glutamate), and to other explanatory mechanisms (e.g., salience processing)

A

29
Q

wat gebeurt er met cognition in schizophrenia

A

Generalised cognitive impairment (not 1 specific domain and not specific to schizophrenia!)

  • Speed of information processing
  • Attention and vigilance
  • Working memory
  • Learning and memory
  • Executive functions
  • Social cognition
30
Q

wat is er voor evidence for cognition in schizophrenia

A

Mixed evidence about relationship with positive symptoms + effects of medication

Associated with reduced social functioning (e.g., difficulties at work, social relationships)

31
Q

wat is belangrijk bij cognition in schizophrenia

A
  • Diagnosis
  • Communication with patient/family
  • Intervention
32
Q

speed of information processing test

A

Symbol digit substitution test

33
Q

attention and vigilance test

A

Continuous performance test (“press X, but only when preceded by A”)

34
Q

working memory test

A

digit span (onthouden cijfers)

35
Q

learning and memory test

A

rey complex figure test (natekenen van figuur)

36
Q

executive functioning test

A

wisconsin card sorting test

37
Q

voor hoeveel mensen werkt de treatment met antipsychotics

A

voor 70% (dus lang niet allemaal)

38
Q

2 processes of social cognition

A
  • lower order processes (= basic emotion perception)
  • higher order processes (theory of mind, via false beliefs task, hinting task)
39
Q

wat zijn verschillende soorten cognitive styles in schizophrenia

A

jumping to conclusions
source monitoring bias (niet goed bedenken wat de source van info was)
bias against disconfirmatory evidence
self-serving bias

40
Q

cognition over a lifespan bij schizophrenia model details

A

cognitive, motor and social impairment -> anxiety and depression symptoms -> social withdrawal & subjective cognitive changes -> prodromal symptoms -> psychosis

41
Q

kijken naar model cognition over the lifespan

A

oke

42
Q

A range of cognitive impairments and maladaptive cognitive styles have been found in patients with schizophrenia

However, group findings do not always translate to the individual

A neuropsychologist can help map cognitive difficulties in patient

A

oke

43
Q

early alarm for psychosis

A

when children are usually very social, but then suddenly are very socially withdrawn

44
Q

autism spectrum disorder dsm 5

A

A. Persistent deficits in social communication and interaction
B. Restricted, repetitive behaviours, interests, or activities
C. Present in early developmental period
D. Significant impairment in functioning
E. Not better explained by other things

45
Q

kijken naar model the diversity of autism

A

oke

46
Q

autism history….

A

Initially used to refer to symptom of schizophrenia (withdrawal into own fantasy life)
Separated as clinical condition by Leo Kanner and Hans Asperger in 1940s
Still referred to as “childhood psychosis” until 1960s
In 1960s and 1970s: differences in age at onset and symptoms
Since then, “can occur, but be very careful!!”

47
Q

symptoms overlapping tussen schizophrenia en autism

A
  1. Difficulties with language or speech
  2. Social withdrawal
  3. Flattened affect
  4. Rigid interests
48
Q

schizophrenia dsm criteria

A

2 or more, at least one month:

delusions
hallucinations
disorganized speech
groslly disorganized or catatonic behaviour
negative symptoms

49
Q

what is another difficulty for diagnosis

A

poorly validated measurement instruments

50
Q

wat is nodig als er history of autism spectrum disorder is

A

the additional diagnosis of schizophrenia is made only if prominent delusions or hallucinations are also present for one month

51
Q

Children with autistic traits / ASD are at an increased risk of psychotic experiences / psychotic disorder

A

oke

52
Q

Prevalence psychosis in autististic adults is 9.4% (N=63.657)
Prevalence of bipolar disorder is 7.5% (N=31.739)
Individuals diagnosed with psychotic disorder display high levels of autistic traits
Similar symptoms/cognitive difficulties, different neurobiology (Martínez et al., 2019)
ASD+P poor response to antipsychotics (Downs et al., 2017)
No increase in dopamine (Schalbroeck et al., 2021

A

oke

53
Q

Autism is a neurodevelopmental condition which is and has been defined in many ways. Core features appear to include social difficulties, repetitive/restricted behaviours, and sensory sensitivities.
Psychotic symptoms are common among autistic individuals, but the diagnosis and treatment of these symptoms can be complicated.
A transdiagnostic, multi-dimensional approach can help identify how autistic individuals with psychotic symptoms might best be helped.
