New @beyondcancer0 analysis out today in @eClinicalMed on mental health in cancer survivorship, led by the brilliant Harriet Forbes. Heightened risks of depression and anxiety persisting for years after diagnosis.. need for improved psychological support. tinyurl.com/mpjkhb2j

Really enjoyed this collaboration extending work from my Epi MSc @LSHTM. 5-year cancer survivors still experienced high risks of a new episode of anxiety/depression, in 18/20 cancers looked at. @krishnan_lshtm @HelenaCarreira7 @beyondcancer0 @eClinicalMed sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Now "spiky profiles" in autism - a skill profile with peaks and valleys with @BendyBrain and perspectives from hidden autism in liaison psychiatry settings @rcpsych #NATPpsychiatrists

@AutisticDoctor @rcpsych @NHSE_WTE @Autistic_SPACE

Autistic SPACE: a novel framework for meeting the needs of autistic patients in healthcare settings, so helpful. Five core autistic needs: Sensory, Predictability, Acceptance, Communication, and Empathy magonlinelibrary.com/doi/full/10.12… @AutisticDoctor @rcpsych @NHSE_WTE #NATPpsychiatrists

@rcpsych @NHSE_WTE @conor_davidson I really like the concept of the "neurodevelopmental galaxy" and constellations of overlapping or co-occurring symptoms between Autism, ADHD, Tourette's etc

High autism underdiagnosis rates across the lifespan - especially in women, older people, and people with mental health problems. Narrowing of M:F ratio from 9:1 to closer to 2:1 @RCPsych @NHSE_WTE @conor_davidson #NATPpsychiatrists

"Hope goes beyond the success of treatment and interventions to a life of value and meaning" thank you @M4ttE11is, shifting from: What is the matter with you? (clinically focussed) > What has happened to you? (trauma-informed) > What matters to you? (recovery focussed)

Helpful to discuss authentic ways to demonstrate visibility as a leader. Being at the table, sharing your voice, so that your values are visible and you are seen to live your values. Really inspiring journeys from @SubhaThiyagesh @M4ttE11is and Ken Taylor @rcpsychLDN

Leading together: meaningful co-production and well-being - @rcpsych leadership and management fellow scheme. Hearing from Ken Taylor, @M4ttEllis, and @SubhaThiyagesh about the transformative power of focusing on what you can do rather than what you can't. @rcpsychLDN

@LizPeecock @drclarabel Great question! Yes the incidence rate the pooled risk were both age-adjusted and higher in woman. So always comparing women to men of the same age. But there was a lot of inconsistency between the individual studies across the globe.

@doc_esha @drclarabel Did they take into consideration that women tend to live longer than men?

Pleased to have written this blog with @drclarabel - Women are consistently at higher risk of dementia. Increased health equity for women could reduce dementia cases, especially in low and middle income countries where higher dementia risk in women was strongest. Have a read!

@beyondbabyblues @MMHAlliance @chrisha_jay @DrLynseyM @rcpsychPeri Congrats @chrisha_jay can’t wait to listen to this!

Misogyny and racial bias routinely putting patients at risk - highly recommend all to read Divided by @SoSowemimo to explore these concepts further, hoping it is translated into action #Core20PLUS5
