“…Some of these finding are consistent with human studies; for example, Sowell et al found volume reductions in various brain regions such as the striatum and the thalamic and prefrontal lobe in children prenatally exposed to methamphetamine [4]. Comparing these findings in methamphetamine-exposed children to children who were prenatally exposed to alcohol, the authors found that volume reductions were more pronounced in some brain regions (e. g., striatum) in methamphetamine-exposed children [4]. Dinger et al discuss possible reasons for the toxicity of methamphetamine and focus on modulation by methamphetamine on monoaminergic neurotransmitter systems during brain development and the possible impact on brain alterations.…”

“…Animal data reveal effects of prenatal methamphetamine exposure in several brain regions, including the striatum and the temporal lobe. Some of these finding are consistent with human studies; for example, Sowell et al found volume reductions in various brain regions such as the striatum and the thalamic and prefrontal lobe in children prenatally exposed to methamphetamine [4]. Comparing these findings in methamphetamine-exposed children to children who were prenatally exposed to alcohol, the authors found that volume reductions were more pronounced in some brain regions (e. g., striatum) in methamphetamine-exposed children [4].…”

Risk of psychosis in refugees: a literature review

2017

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Conflicts and precarious living conditions resulted in the arrival of large numbers of refugees in Europe and especially in Germany. Evidence suggests that immigrant populations are at elevated risk of psychotic disorders. Considering the traumatic pre- and post-migratory adversities refugees may have encountered, people granted refugee status may even be more susceptible to psychosis than non-refugee migrants. The aim of this literature review is to summarise and interpret recent research on the incidence or prevalence of psychotic disorders in refugees, additionally focusing on the aspects of gender and Middle Eastern provenance. A systematic search in PubMed was performed in the time from 20 to 28 May 2016. Relevant literature was limited to articles describing cohort studies conducted in Western industrialised countries. Articles published between 1 June 2006 and 28 May 2016 were analysed. Content relating to psychotic disorders in refugees was reviewed and summarised. The selected studies showed an increased risk of psychotic disorders in refugees compared with both the indigenous population and non-refugee. migrants. The elevated risk was more pronounced in refugee men. A particularly high risk in refugees of Middle Eastern origin could not be inferred. The higher susceptibility to psychotic disorders in refugees emphasises the need for the development and implementation of adequate prevention strategies. Clinicians and people working in a refugee setting should be aware of early signs and symptoms of psychosis. Further research is required to evaluate post-migratory experiences and investigate the population of refugees affected by the current humanitarian crisis.

“…Gleichzeitig ist anzunehmen, dass es Bevölkerungsgruppen mit erschwertem Zugang zum "Urban Advantage" sind, für die sozialer Stress in der Stadt pathogen wird. Rapp et al konnten für türkischstämmige Migranten in innerstädtischen Bezirken von Berlin zeigen, dass erlebte Armut in der Nachbarschaft die seelische Gesundheit besonders negativ beeinflusst (28); noch stärker als die eigenen prekären Verhältnisse. Stadtstress kann also auch dort entstehen, wo für eine…”

Zusammenfassung Hintergrund: Urbanisierung gehört zu den wichtigsten globalen Veränderungen, denen die Menschheit in den kommenden Jahrzehnten ausgesetzt sein wird. Diese Entwicklung ist rasant – und sie ist gesundheitsrelevant, mit weit reichenden Konsequenzen für unser psychisches Befinden. Einige stressassoziierte psychische Erkrankungen zeigen ein erhöhtes Auftreten bei Stadtbewohnern. Methode: Es ist daher höchste Zeit, den Einfluss von Stadtleben auf das psychische Wohlbefinden sowie die Rolle urbaner Stressoren besser zu verstehen. Hierzu ist ein methodischer Schulterschluss zwischen Architektur, Stadtplanung, Neurowissenschaften und Medizin notwendig, für den wir den Begriff der „Neurourbanistik“ vorschlagen. Neurourbanistik als neue akademische Perspektive kann dazu beitragen, angemessen und effektiv auf die Herausforderungen einer urbanisierten Welt zu reagieren. Die Themen neurourbanistischer Forschung umfassen dabei Grundlagenforschung, Epidemiologie und Public Health genauso wie experimentelle Stressforschung und Präventionsforschung. Ziel: Ziel ist, ein Lebensumfeld zu schaffen, welches die Resilienz und psychische Gesundheit von Stadtbewohnern und urbaner Gemeinschaften stärkt.
