Most research has largely been conducted in Europe and North America, with little representation of the rest of the world; hence generalisability of findings is questionable. For this reason, we performed a mapping review of studies on environmental risk for schizophrenia spectrum disorders, recording the country where they were conducted, and we linked our findings with publicly available data to identify correlates with the uneven global distribution. Our aim was to evaluate how universal is the 'common knowledge' of environmental risk for psychosis collating the availability of evidence across different countries and to generate suggestions for future research identifying gaps in evidence.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>We performed a systematic search and mapping of studies in the PubMed and PsycINFO electronic databases reporting on exposure to environmental risk for schizophrenia including obstetric complications, paternal age, migration, urbanicity, childhood trauma, and cannabis use and subsequent onset of schizophrenia spectrum disorders.

In particular, urbanicity, deprivation or inequality, migrant density and cannabis availability may not only influence psychosis incidence, but also the characteristics of individuals who arrive at clinical services. This study examined how socioeconomic factors influence the incidence and characteristics of cases of First-Episode Psychosis (FEP).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;We analysed prospective data collected from the FEP early detection programme of Emilia-Romagna, a high-income Italian region. Participants were 1240 individuals aged 18-35 years, who presented at the public healthcare services for a FEP. Exposures were derived from area-level data of 331 municipalities. We used population density, socioeconomic deprivation, educational deprivation, economic inequality, migrant density (proportion of migrants), frequent cannabis use (proportion of people aged 15-19 years old who reported frequent cannabis use). Outcome measures were FEP incidence (cases/100 000 inhabitants at risk per year) and characteristics (age of onset, migrant status, unemployment, substance use, treatment lag [DUP], family and resource problems). We reviewed pertinent literature, and formulated a Directed Acyclic Graph to present causal assumptions and provide adjustment sets for Bayesian spatial and multilevel models of social causation. To compare the effects of different exposures, we computed Average Marginal Effects and report the outcome changes that correspond to one standard deviation change of the exposure, incidence rate ratios (IRR) or odds ratios (OR).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The exposures and incidence of FEP displayed heterogeneous spatial distribution, with no spatially organized pattern. Accordingly, incidence and characteristics were best modelled as non-spatial, three-level hierarchical models. The incidence of FEP was influenced by population density (IRR, 1.14; 95% CrI, 1.03; 1.29), educational deprivation (IRR, 1.15; 95% CrI, 1.02; 1.31) and frequent cannabis use (IRR, 1.31; 95% CrI, 0.98; 1.82), more than socioeconomic deprivation. Higher migrant density in an area shortened the DUP on average by 3.4 months (95% CrI, -1.122; 0.76), while an increase of cannabis use of one standard deviation increased the DUP of 12.9 months (95% CrI, -2.86; 6229). Socioeconomic deprivation increased the likelihood of FEP cases being substance users (OR, 1.12; 95% CrI, 1.01; 1.26), while population density decreased it (OR, 0.91; 95% CrI, 0.83; 1.00).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Conclusions: &lt;/strong&gt;Area-level socioeconomic features affect both the incidence and the characteristics of FEP, including the probability of individual being migrants, substance users or having a different DUP.

Furthermore, it remains unclear whether an overall healthy lifestyle can mitigate the association between childhood trauma (CT) and depressive symptoms, even in the general population. We aimed to explore the associations of combined lifestyle, and its interaction with CT, with depressive symptoms and their subtypes (i.e. cognitive-affective and somatic symptoms) among adults with subthreshold depression.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>This dynamic cohort was initiated in Shenzhen, China in 2019, including adults aged 18-65 years with the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) score of ≥ 5 but not diagnosed with depressive disorders at baseline. CT (present or absent) was assessed with the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire-Short Form. Combined lifestyle, including no current drinking, no current smoking, regular physical exercise, optimal sleep duration and no obesity, was categorized into 0-2, 3 and 4-5 healthy lifestyles. Depressive symptoms were assessed using the PHQ-9 during follow-up. This cohort was followed every 6 months, and as of March 2023, had been followed for 3.5 years.</p><p><strong>Findings: </strong>This study included 2298 participants (mean [SD] age, 40.3 [11.1] years; 37.7% male). After fully adjusting for confounders, compared with 0-2 healthy lifestyles, 3 (<i>β</i> coefficient, -0.619 [95% CI, -0.943, -0.294]) and 4-5 (<i>β</i> coefficient, -0.986 [95% CI, -1.302, -0.671]) healthy lifestyles were associated with milder depressive symptoms during follow-up. There exists a significant synergistic interaction between a healthy lifestyle and the absence of CT. The CT-stratified analysis showed that compared with 0-2 healthy lifestyles, 3 healthy lifestyles were associated with milder depressive symptoms in participants with CT, but not in those without CT, and 4-5 healthy lifestyles were associated with milder depressive symptoms in both participants with and without CT, with a stronger association in those with CT. The lifestyle-stratified analysis showed that CT was associated with more severe depressive symptoms in participants with 0-2 healthy lifestyles, but not in those with 3 or 4-5 healthy lifestyles. Cognitive-affective and somatic symptoms showed similar results.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>In this 3.5-year longitudinal study of adults with subthreshold depression, an overall healthy lifestyle was associated with subsequent milder depressive symptoms and their subtypes, with a stronger association in adults with CT than those without CT.
