          Is Risk of Alzheimer’s Linked to Specific Sleep Patterns?

          Sleep disturbances may be an outcome of Alzheimer's in those with a genetic predisposition, but not a cause of dementia. Those with genetic risk factors for Alzheimer's tend to have shorter sleep durations and are more likely to be early risers but are less likely to suffer from insomnia.

          Early Life Stress Associated with Youth Onset of Depression for Some Types of Stress But Not Others

          Examining the impact of eight types of early life stress on the onset of youth-onset depression, researchers found some had little impact on the development of the psychological disorder. Emotional abuse was more strongly associated with the development of major depressive disorder than other early stressors, such as poverty.

          The largest genetic map of psychiatric disorders so far

          The largest genetic map of mental health disorders to date reveals there are three groups of highly genetically related disorders among eight psychiatric disorders. A gene related to nervous system development is a risk factor for all eight disorders studied. The RBFOX1 gene is implicated in seven of the eight disorders. ADHD and depression share 44% of genetic risk factors common in the general population. 109 pleiotropic loci affect more than one disorder. These pleiotropic loci are within genes that show heightened expression in the brain through the lifespan, beginning during the second trimester of pregnancy.
