Congrats!! Julie W Dreier Exciting and important project!!

It was a fantastic collaboration with the brilliant Benjamin Perry and all the other incredibly talented people! The results are complex, there is much to study further! What is for sure, the mental health needs of children and young people with T1D warrants adequate attention.

Our recent work suggests that there would be a great surge in dementia cases in China (66.3 million by 2050) if the observed rise in dementia incidence continues. thelancet.com/journals/lanwp…

Can suicide be predicted? Some experts have argued that suicide is far too rare to be accurately predicted, but Prof Seena Fazel, Director of the Centre for Suicide Research (Oxford Psychiatry), offers a more nuanced perspective in this fascinating video lecture:

Tomorrow morning at #WCE2024, I will present my second PhD study on socioeconomic inequalities in mortality related to mental disorders, using Danish register data. Please join me in Meeting Block 1.61-1.64. I very look forward to connecting with familiar and new colleagues. 🙂

New publication from PIREAU members Henrik Toft Sørensen and Oleguer Plana-Ripoll. The data documents that most physical diseases are associated with an elevated risk of subsequent mental disorders onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/wp…

Thanks for suggesting me Gill Livingston and thanks for the invitation Fondazione Prada. Really enjoy this conference.

The incidence of mental disorders in Denmark has increased over time, with specific patterns varying by sex, age, birth cohort, and calendar period. ja.ma/3V7d213

1/ That "immortal time" is so frequent in survival analyses for #causalinference is fascinating. Because "immortal time" doesn't exist in the data, *we* create it when misanalyzing data. Our paper pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39494894/ summarizes why immortal time arises & how to prevent it.

This study found that only 6.9% of people with mental and substance use disorders received effective treatment, with major barriers including low perceived need, inadequate treatment contact, and insufficient treatment quality. ja.ma/3WJZnxR
