Individuals with mental disorders who attempted suicide were reported to have impaired or abnormal social decision-making, evidenced by neuro-electrophysiological activity, according to a study published in BMC Psychiatry.

Neural circuitry dysfunction may be associated with prolonged periods of extremely restricted food intake and food avoidance among patients with anorexia nervosa, according to study results published in American Journal of Psychiatry.
