This is interesting. In Sweden increased inpatient beds correlated with decreased rates of suicide.
🆕Nationwide Swedish study shows more psychiatric inpatient beds = fewer suicides.📉
Each 10-bed increase per 100k inhabitants linked to 7.6% reduction in suicide mortality.

Did you know it can take up to 10 years to get an endometriosis diagnosis? 📅
We are supporting studies such as FENOX, which aims to speed up diagnosis.
The study will examine blood, saliva, urine, and tissue samples, along with medical information, to help researchers understand the causes of the condition.
Want to find out how you can get involved in this important research? Read the second of our #NIHR20 gamechangers series - which focuses on improving women's health.

"Briton diagnosed with rabies after psychiatrist raised fears"
I think a lot more psychiatric illness than we would like to admit is caused by infection.
But this one also kills you.
Maybe there's a lot more of that than we'd like to admit too.
