Australian Psychiatry Review

Highlights of the literature in May include articles on the National Disability Insurance Scheme in Australia, major reviews of psychological interventions in psychosis in the American Journal of Psychiatry, a special issue of Biological Psychiatry describing the boundaries between neurology and psychiatry in neurodegenerative disease, and a nursing-initiated project for managing conflict and containment on psychiatric wards, called Safewards. Finally, there is an important Swedish registry study demonstrating an association between psychotropic medication prescription and reduced violent crime in the Lancet.
