Summary: A new study has uncovered the brain connectivity patterns that differentiate patients who recover from psychosis from those who do not. Using whole-brain computational models, researchers found that patients in remission show increased neural connectivity, while those with persistent symptoms show reduced connectivity.Both groups exhibited lower overall neural stability than healthy individuals, but only recovering patients adapted their connectivity in a way that supports recovery. This refined understanding may allow clinicians to predict the course of psychosis and tailor treatments accordingly.Key Facts:Connectivity Patterns: Psychosis remission is associated...
