An international study published in Brain, Behavior, and Immunity shows that patients with treatment-resistant depression (TRD) have a unique biology, different from those who respond to standard therapies. More than 5,000 genes were found to behave differently in TRD compared with non-resistant patients. The study reports the first results of the PROMPT consortium, which aims to combine clinical and molecular data using machine learning to predict which patients are at risk of developing TRD.

Greater exposure of mothers to airborne particulate matter during pregnancy is linked to lower levels of brain myelination in newborns. This is highlighted by the first study to measure neonatal brain myelination using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Published in the journal Environment International, it is the result of a collaboration between Hospital del Mar and ISGlobal. The research shows that prenatal exposure to fine particles (PM2.5) is associated with slower brain maturation during the first month of life. Myelination is a key marker of brain development.
