Which perinatal exposures confer a risk of offspring depression? In-utero and perinatal adverse exposures can be biologically embedded via epigenetic changes that can impact on mental health in adolescence and later in adulthood through cellular aging.

ADHD - Attention-deficit / hyperactivity disorder ADHD is a behavioural disorder with three key aspects, inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. Our topic guide covers diagnosis, treatment options.

No single risk factor explains ADHD, but a mix of genetic and environmental factors working together that looks likely to be the cause.

Cord blood metabolites linked with an ADHD diagnosis in childhood Researchers in the USA have analysed whether the levels of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) detectable in maternal plasma and newborn cord blood are associated with the development of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) later in childhood.

The researchers explained that pending validation, these findings might provide insights into mechanisms that contribute to ADHD development.

Technology Matters: A model for translating digital and data science innovations into Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services As digital mental health research and technology continue to grow, a systematic approach to quickly and safely translating digital innovation into Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) is needed. Here, we provide an overview of the CAMHS Digital Lab, a service in London, United Kingdom, which integrates operational, clinical and research expertise to support digital discovery and translate research into practice. The service is organized into four workstreams: Population and clinical analytics; Data science and discovery; Digital therapeutics and assessment; and Education, outreach and training. This service provides a model for integrating digital innovation into mental health services which could be adopted elsewhere.

How effective are tools to help school staff better respond to young people who self-harm? Although school staff are often the first to notice or hear about concerning self-harm behaviours, reports suggest that school staff often lack confidence and training in responding to this.

Do autistic girls talk differently about social groups? Overall, autistic children used significantly fewer plural pronouns than their typically developing peers, indicating that they talked less about social groups. However, autistic girls talked more about social groups than autistic boys.
