Objective and subjective neighbourhood factors and suicidality

Family networks at migration

I have published a new paper!! Family networks during migration and risk of non-affective psychosis. What did we look at? We had a cohort of migrants to Sweden and we looked to see if having family around during migration affected the risk of developing psychotic disorders (like schizophrenia). What did we find: We found sex-specific patterns, where the presence of family was protective for females but increased risk among males.
