    • Addictive Internet Use among Korean Adolescents: A National Survey 

      Heo, Jongho; Oh, Juhwan; Subramanian, S. V.; Kim, Yoon; Kawachi, Ichiro (Public Library of Science, 2014)
      Background: A psychological disorder called ‘Internet addiction’ has newly emerged along with a dramatic increase of worldwide Internet use. However, few studies have used population-level samples nor taken into account ...

    • Astrocyte-Specific Disruption of SynCAM1 Signaling Results in ADHD-Like Behavioral Manifestations 

      Sandau, Ursula S.; Alderman, Zefora; Corfas, Gabriel; Ojeda, Sergio R.; Raber, Jacob (Public Library of Science, 2012)
      SynCAM1 is an adhesion molecule involved in synaptic differentiation and organization. SynCAM1 is also expressed in astroglial cells where it mediates astrocyte-to astrocyte and glial-neuronal adhesive communication. In ...

    • Characteristics and Predictive Value of Blood Transcriptome Signature in Males with Autism Spectrum Disorders 

      Kong, Sek Won; Collins, Christin D.; Shimizu-Motohashi, Yuko; Holm, Ingrid A.; Campbell, Malcolm G.; Lee, In-Hee; Brewster, Stephanie J.; Hanson, Ellen M.; Harris, Heather; Lowe, Kathryn R.; Saada, Adrianna; Mora, Andrea; Madison, Kimberly; Hundley, Rachel; Egan, Jessica; McCarthy, Jillian; Eran, Ally; Galdzicki, Michal; Rappaport, Leonard; Kunkel, Louis M.; Kohane, Isaac S.

      Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) is a spectrum of highly heritable neurodevelopmental disorders in which known mutations contribute to disease risk in 20% of cases. Here, we report the results of the largest blood transcriptome ...

    • Gamma Band Neural Synchronization Deficits for Auditory Steady State Responses in Bipolar Disorder Patients 

      Oda, Yuko; Onitsuka, Toshiaki; Tsuchimoto, Rikako; Hirano, Shogo; Ueno, Takefumi; Nakamura, Itta; Miura, Tomofumi; Kanba, Shigenobu; Oribe, Naoya; Hirano, Yoji (Public Library of Science, 2012)
      Periodic auditory click stimulation has been reported to elicit an auditory steady state response (ASSR). The ASSR has been suggested to reflect the efficiency of γ-amino butyric acid (GABA) inhibitory interneuronal activity. ...

    • Integrated Model of De Novo and Inherited Genetic Variants Yields Greater Power to Identify Risk Genes 

      He, Xin; Sanders, Stephan J.; Liu, Li; De Rubeis, Silvia; Lim, Elaine T.; Sutcliffe, James S.; Schellenberg, Gerard D.; Gibbs, Richard A.; Daly, Mark J.; Buxbaum, Joseph D.; State, Matthew W.; Devlin, Bernie; Roeder, Kathryn (Public Library of Science, 2013)
      De novo mutations affect risk for many diseases and disorders, especially those with early-onset. An example is autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Four recent whole-exome sequencing (WES) studies of ASD families revealed a ...

    • Use of Artificial Intelligence to Shorten the Behavioral Diagnosis of Autism 

      Wall, Dennis Paul; Dally, Rebecca; Luyster, Rhiannon; Jung, Jae-Yoon; DeLuca, Todd (Public Library of Science, 2012)
