Hello.

In this hypothesis many things make me think this could be the true pathophysiology of many cases of schizophrenia.

After being interested in these diseases and after reading many publications and getting information from many places, I have a hypothesis about the pathophysiology of schizophrenia which explains many very strange facts about schizophrenia, such as the fact that people born blind never seem to get schizophrenia or that cancer chemotherapy can in some cases completely and temporarily cure schizophrenia (both of these facts are known to some psychiatrists but are rarely discussed in the literature).

The result of my hypothesis is that certain bacteria (a kind of bacteria that can survive antibiotics like a borrelia) infect the receptors in the retina that assess daylight so that the pineal gland in the brain releases the sleep hormone and of awakening.

In this hypothesis, this bacterium would strongly increase the waking hormone, triggering both a reduction in the immune system in schizophrenic patients and allowing this type of bacterium to survive longer in the body and thus have a better chance of spread to someone else, and trigger psychiatric symptoms.

Professor Fourtillan indeed believes that the wake-up hormone he found a few years ago is responsible for schizophrenia, one reason why he thinks it is the wake-up hormone that triggers schizophrenia is that this hormone acts exactly opposite to antipsychotics on most neurotransmitter receptors, so if this hormone is responsible for schizophrenia, antipsychotics would indeed treat it. Another reason he thinks this is because he thinks Alzheimer's is caused by low levels of the wake-up hormone, and people with schizophrenia actually never get Alzheimer's even if they get a other dementia.

Here is the link to the document explaining this in more details:

Article A dormant infection in the eye could cause most cases of schizophrenia

Here is the youtube page of josefa foundation which explains the fourtillan's discoveries:

My questions are:

As this hypothesis may be the real cause of schizophrenia, and this is quite important, could other people help me to publicize this hypothesis, to spread it, or to test it?

What do you think of this hypothesis?

I can explain to people what might not understand if my explanation was not clear enough.

Do you know ways to make this hypothesis known?

because I feel that publishing in journals won't work, maybe yes, but I doubt of that because there is very few journals which talks about hypothesis.

Hello.

The title of this thread certainly sounds very bold, maybe too bold.

But many things make me think this could be the true pathophysiology of many cases of schizophrenia.

I am looking for a publication on which I had come across and that I can no longer find.

maybe I hadn't found it on pubmed because I absolutely can't find this publication on pubmed, so my question is: do you know of other sites like pubmed so that I can find it.

Thanks

Hello.

I'm looking for all journal which allow medical hypothesis publication.

I already know the journals named:

"medical hypothesis" and

"Journal of Medical Hypothesis and Ideas"

But do you know other journals?

Thanks

I know that some psychiatrist are interested in this hypothesis, I'd like to join such a mailing list if it exists.

Thanks for your answer.

I already tried to publish my document on medical hypothesis, but they rejected this document.

I'm looking for another journal where I can try to publish my synthesis about possible pathogen involved in schizophrenia.

I have access to an important list of medical journal, but it seems difficult to find one related to pathophysiology of schizophrenia and not to much famous, as I'm still a student and a to much famous journal will certainly reject my work?

Thanks for your answer
