Skin conditions linked to worse outcomes in early psychosis

Researchers have discovered that individuals experiencing their first episode of psychosis who also have skin issues face higher risks of depression and suicidal thoughts. The finding, presented at the ECNP meeting in Amsterdam, suggests dermatological symptoms could serve as early warning signs for poorer mental health outcomes. This connection may stem from shared developmental origins between the skin and brain.
