Validating the vulnerabilities and pathologies underlying treatment-resistant schizophrenia (TRS) is an important challenge in optimizing treatment. Gyrification surface area (SA), reflecting neurodevelopmental features, have been linked to genetic vulnerability schizophrenia. The aim of this study was identify gyrification SA abnormalities specific TRS.We analyzed 3T magnetic resonance imaging findings 24 healthy controls (HCs), 20 responders first-line antipsychotics (FL-Resp), 41 patients...
Immune dysfunction has been proposed as a mechanism for the pathophysiology of autistic-spectrum disorders. The selectin family adhesion molecules plays prominent role in immune/inflammatory responses. We determined serum levels three types soluble-form (sP, sL and sE) 15 men with high-functioning autism 22 age-matched healthy controls by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Levels sP-selectin sL-selectin were significantly lower patients than controls. Furthermore, negatively correlated...
Introduction Gamma-band oscillatory deficits have attracted considerable attention as promising biomarkers of schizophrenia (SZ). Notably, a reduced auditory steady-state response (ASSR) in the low gamma band (40 Hz) is widely recognized robust finding among SZ patients. However, comprehensive investigation into potential utility high-gamma-band ASSR detecting altered neural oscillations has not yet been conducted. Methods The present study aimed to assess using magnetoencephalography (MEG)...
Aims: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects temperament on quality life and social adaptation in depressive patients with mood disorder. Methods: Forty‐six consecutive outpatients were investigated by using Temperament Evaluation Memphis, Pisa, Paris San Diego‐Autoquestionnaire version, Munich Personality Test, World Health Organization Quality Life 26 (WHO QOL 26), Social Adaptation Self‐evaluation Scale (SASS). unpaired t ‐test, Pearson's r multiple regression analysis used...
Prominent pathological hypotheses for schizophrenia include auditory processing deficits and dysconnectivity within cerebral networks. However, most neuroimaging studies have focused on impairments in either resting-state or task-related functional connectivity patients with schizophrenia. The aims of our study were to examine (1) blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) signals during steady-state response (ASSR) tasks, (2) the ASSR tasks (3) state shifts between To reduce consequences scanner...
As the emphasis on critical dimension (CD) control in sub-micron lithography becomes more important, mechanism of development process and different contributing factors will need to be further explored by equipment manufacturers. It was observed that use reticles with smaller exposed area ratio (EAR) have affects CD uniformity. To gain better CDs, we examined several process. Some significant are EAR rapid concentration changes tetrametylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) surrounding resist patterns...
