Advances in Understanding Schizophrenia, ADHD, and ASD.

This document provides a summary of several research papers published in the American Journal of Psychiatry. The papers cover topics related to schizophrenia, autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The research findings indicate low levels of recovery and remission in individuals with schizophrenia spectrum disorders compared to other psychoses. A meta-analysis of neuroimaging data reveals shared and distinct patterns of brain activation in individuals with ASD and ADHD. Another study uses a mega-analytic approach to identify functional connectivity alterations in youth with ADHD. These findings contribute to our understanding of the etiology and pathophysiology of these disorders and may guide the development of new treatments. [Extracted from the article]
