Duration of untreated psychosis and clinical outcomes of first episode psychosis: An observational and an instrumental variables analysis

Duration of untreated psychosis (DUP) is considered as a key prognostic variable in psychosis. Yet, it is unclear whether a longer DUP causes worse outcomes or whether reported associations have alternative explanations.
