Associated Brain Alterations and Future Suicide Ideation in Female Adolescents and Young Adults with Mood Disorders
Duration: 17 mins
Description
Lejla Colic and Dr. Hilary Blumberg discuss 'Associated Brain Alterations and Future Suicide Ideation in Female Adolescents and Young Adults with Mood Disorders'.
Learning Objectives
1. The age range included in the study.
2. The significance of females with future suicide ideation and behaviours having shown decreases in cortical thickness, as well as some other differences in brain regions observing emotional and behavioural regulation.
3. The importance of cortical thickness.
4. The origins of these neurobiological differences – are they genetic, environmental, developmental, or some combination of all of these?
5. The reason for focusing on young adult and adolescent females, and how these findings are relevant to males.
6. How this research can be translated into practice to better identify and support adolescents at risk of suicidal ideation and behaviours.
