Researchers have found a new way to predict some aspects of mental illness, before it happens. They used artificial intelligence and more than 60 million health records. Dr. Bruce Kinon has always been fascinated by the brain. Motivated by a desire to find better treatments for mental disorders, he co-authored a study in a collaboration with Lundbeck and Kings College in London. They developed a tool that could identify early symptoms of "first episode of psychosis,” commonly referred to as when someone has a "break."“Most schizophrenia begins with the first episode of psychosis. This is a marked change in normal behavior. This is where the patient all of a sudden, rather suddenly, begins acting bizarrely, may have thoughts not based in reality,” Dr. Kinon explained. That first episode is critical, and the beginning of the lifelong disability known as schizophrenia. So, what if they could predict that first break? It's not something you can test for. “What we’ve done in this study is basically developed a population tool that one could screen populations of individuals who haven’t been identified through any health care professional as possibly having those precedence of developing a prodromal or at risk state for psychosis,” Dr. Kinon said.Dr. Kinon says there's usually some sort of stressor that leads to that break.“These periods of first psychosis seem to be preceded by what we call prodromal symptoms, a simmering, under the surface of symptoms,” he said. “Usually the individual feels out of sorts, that they don’t understand what’s going on around them. Their social relationships may be aborted."Dr. Kinon worked with IBM Watson Health Explorys Solutions. They took more than 60 million anonymized health records, including those who'd had a diagnosis of first episode of psychosis, and put them through privatization machines and let the artificial intelligence do the work. “Sometimes when you have all this data across billions of data points across thousands of patients, it becomes hard for us as humans to see the data and find patterns that’s where machine learning comes into play,” said Dr. Anil Jain, Vice President and Chief Health Information Officer at IBM Watson Health.Dr. Jain says think of it like a virtual clinical study, where you're looking for patterns. And imagine how that could one day help doctors. It took two years to get to this point, and they're not done yet. Now that there's a predictive model looking for patterns, they need to design a clinical trial so as to create an intervention. “Imagine down the road, not today, that you put this model back in the hands of clinicians who are taking care of patients that’s how you connect the dots between what we can discover from big data and real world evidence and machine learning algorithms back to the practice of medicine.”There's still a lot of questions. Would people want to know what's coming? Or the risks? Or the stigma? But for now, it's a big step, using big data, possibly leading to big medical breakthroughs. Dr. Kinon has hope for the future, and hope for prevention for those with mental illness. In the meantime, he wants people to reach out to the many organizations, like the 3221

SHOREWOOD, Wis. — A Wisconsin physical education teacher has been placed on leave after allegedly telling African-American students to reenact slavery and "slavery games."April 1 was a typical day in gym class at Shorewood Intermediate School until seventh-grader Alexis Averette says she was assigned an odd game by PE instructor Jan Zehren. “Ms. Zehren forced me and my partner to reenact slavery in front of the entire class," she said. "When we told her we were uncomfortable she told us we still had to do it."While some students presented dodge ball, others say they were paired up by race and told to reenact "slavery games." When Alexis and her partner proposed another game, the students say they were told it was too common.When Alexis told her parents, her mother and father were shocked. “She came home and she told me she had to reconstruct games ever played during slavery," said Alexis's father, Yuri Averette. "Yeah, I was completely shocked. I knew it was a problem immediately when she said she was uncomfortable."Averette and other parents voiced their concerns to the school. In response, Zehren was escorted out of building and placed on leave.Zehren has taught physical education in the Shorewood School District for 36 years. The school district sent a letter to students and parents saying they were investigating. Parents like Averette are seeking justice and want Zehern fired.“We don’t want (that) here and that’s not just for my child but for any other child. No one should have to go through this,” Averette said.In a statement, Shorewood Superintendent Bryans David said, “We are committed to providing an environment of inclusion in our schools.” WTMJ reached out to Zehren at her home, but did not get an answer. 1757

Residents were urged to shelter in place for several hours after an explosion and fire broke out Wednesday at a massive ExxonMobil plant in Texas, injuring 66 people, officials said.The injuries were non-life threatening, plant manager Jason Duncan told reporters. Most involved minor, first-degree-type burns, with the victims treated at a local clinic, he said. Most were ExxonMobil employees or contractors.City officials said via Twitter Wednesday afternoon that the shelter-in-place advisory had been lifted after monitoring failed to detect "any levels of concern" in the air. The fire had been contained by the evening."We realize the people who live here in Baytown and our surrounding communities are worried," Baytown spokeswoman Natasha Barrett told reporters. "We understand that and we've been working hour after hour to check on things, to monitor air quality."The fire occurred at the company's Baytown Olefins Plant, ExxonMobil spokeswoman Sarah Nordin said. The company website describes the complex as one of the largest refining and petrochemical complexes in the world. It's located about 25 miles east of Houston.Barrett said the fire began about 11:07 a.m. local time and the precautionary shelter-in-place was issued about 10 minutes later.The blaze is in a unit that contains polypropylene material and Exxon asked that the shelter-in-place order be issued west of the plant and south of the Texas Spur 330 freeway "out of an abundance of caution," the city of Baytown said via Twitter.Duncan said the fire broke out at a polypropylene recovery unit, where the plastic is purified for production. He said crews were working to shut down the units to isolate the fire source.Duncan said the company is conducting air quality monitoring at the site and fence line, and cooperating with regulatory agencies. He said no adverse environmental effects had been detected.Barrett said city and county officials were also monitoring the air.The cause of the explosion is unknown, he said. 2015
