Hippocampal volume is lower than expected in patients with schizophrenia; however, whether this represents a fixed deficit uncertain. Exercise stimulus to hippocampal plasticity.To determine would increase exercise humans and effect be related improved aerobic fitness.Randomized controlled study.Patients attending day hospital program or an outpatient clinic.Male chronic schizophrenia matched healthy subjects.Aerobic training (cycling) playing table football (control group) for period of 3...
Abstract Taking the first-person perspective (1PP) centered upon one's own body as opposed to third-person (3PP), which enables us take viewpoint of someone else, is constitutive for human self-consciousness. At underlying representational or cognitive level, these operations are processed in an egocentric reference frame, where locations represented around another person's (3PP) (1PP). To study 3PP and 1PP, both operating frames, a virtual scene with avatar red balls room was presented from...
Structural brain abnormalities are central to schizophrenia (SZ), but it remains unknown whether they linked dysmaturational processes crossing diagnostic boundaries, aggravating across disease stages, and driving the neurodiagnostic signature of illness. Therefore, we investigated patients with SZ (N = 141), major depression (MD; N 104), borderline personality disorder (BPD; 57), individuals in at-risk mental states for psychosis (ARMS; 89) deviated from trajectory normal maturation. This...
Objective The assessment of response to lithium maintenance treatment in bipolar disorder (BD) is complicated by variable length treatment, unpredictable clinical course, and often inconsistent compliance. Prospective retrospective methods have been proposed the literature. In this study we report key phenotypic measures “Retrospective Criteria Long-Term Treatment Response Research Subjects with Bipolar Disorder” scale currently used Consortium on Lithium Genetics (ConLiGen) study. Materials...
These updated guidelines are based on a first edition of the World Federation Societies Biological Psychiatry (WFSBP) for biological treatment schizophrenia published in 2006. For this 2012 revision, all available publications pertaining to were reviewed systematically allow an evidence-based update. provide practice recommendations that clinically and scientifically meaningful. They intended be used by physicians diagnosing treating people suffering from schizophrenia. Based version these...
These guidelines for the biological treatment of schizophrenia were developed by an international Task Force World Federation Societies Biological Psychiatry (WFSBP). The goal during development these was to review systematically all available evidence pertaining schizophrenia, and reach a consensus on series practice recommendations that are clinically scientifically meaningful based evidence. intended use physicians seeing treating people with schizophrenia. data used developing have been...
The direct estimation of heritability from genome-wide common variant data as implemented in the program Genome-wide Complex Trait Analysis (GCTA) has provided a means to quantify attributable all interrogated variants. We have quantified variance liability disease explained by SNPs for two phenotypically-related neurobehavioral disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and Tourette Syndrome (TS), using GCTA. Our analysis yielded point estimate 0.58 (se = 0.09, p 5.64e-12) TS, 0.37...
Social and occupational impairments contribute to the burden of psychosis depression. There is a need for risk stratification tools inform personalized functional-disability preventive strategies individuals in at-risk early phases these illnesses.To determine whether predictors associated with social role functioning can be identified patients clinical high-risk (CHR) states or recent-onset depression (ROD) using clinical, imaging-based, combined machine learning; assess geographic,...
