Scientists are reported to have identified what they are expecting could be associated to the early signs of schizophrenia in the child’s brains just after birth.
So lets just break the opening phrase into its component grammatical parts FOR CLARITY'S SAKE.
--"... are reported to ..." the articles author has heard that the researchers might have found something FROM SOMEONE ELSE. (other than the researchers themselves)
--"identified"
to recognize or establish as being a particular person or thing; verify the identity of:
there ISN'T any ambiguity in the word identified as its generally used PLUS they've used the word VERIFY which generally is thought to mean
to prove the truth of, as by evidence or testimony; confirm;substantiate:
NO ambiguity
--"...what they are expecting could be associated to..." a phrase which generally connotes that the researchers DON'T know but think MIGHT be.
in the child's brains just after birth.
A post birth child's brain is DEVELOPING. NOT thought to be a completely formed organ or in ANY condition to be doing ANYTHING other than growing and developing further. Which in infants pretty much means eating & sleeping & controling bodily functions such as breathing & heat beat. Correct me if I 'm wrong but schizophrenia is generally thought of as having to do with HIGHER brain functions than LIFE SUPPORT. Nec pas?!?
Communications
Complex ideas
Feelings
SO HOW could a childs brain "just after birth" have a "disease" involving HIGHER BRAIN FUNCTIONS!?!
#dotheythinkwereSTUPID
So like, I heard these guys, like, maybe, have put some colored spots on a picture of a brain and have pretended to make a scientific finding that MIGHT BE a BREAKTHROUGH and they want to see if some other guys would give them some more money to make some more BREAK THROUGHS.
Like, THAT'S SO COOL!
Journalism-what a concept.

We would like to point out the obvious flaw in this bogus study; there is no medical/scientific test in existence that schizophrenia is a physical disease or brain abnormality to start with. There is not one chemical imbalance test, X-ray, MRI or any other test for schizophrenia, not one. So with no evidence of medical abnormality to start with, the “associated with schizophrenia risk” amounts to what George Orwell called Doublespeak (language that deliberately disguises, distorts, misleads)—it means nothing.
