Abnormalities of middle longitudinal fascicle and disorganization in patients with schizophrenia
(Elsevier BV, 2013)
Introduction—The Middle Longitudinal Fascicle (MdLF) is a long association fiber connecting the superior temporal gyrus (STG) and temporal pole with the angular gyrus through the white matter of the STG, structures which ...
Structural abnormalities in the cuneus associated with Herpes Simplex Virus (type 1) infection in people at ultra high risk of developing psychosis
(Elsevier BV, 2012)
It has been suggested that some cases of schizophrenia may be caused by an interaction between physiological risk factors and exposure to certain neurotropic infectious agents such as Herpes Simplex Virus type 1 (HSV1). ...
Stochastic tractography study of Inferior Frontal Gyrus anatomical connectivity in schizophrenia
(Elsevier BV, 2011)
Background—Abnormalities within language-related anatomical structures have been associated with clinical symptoms and with language and memory deficits in schizophrenia. Recent studies suggest disruptions in functional ...
Comparing prefrontal gray and white matter contributions to intelligence and decision making in schizophrenia and healthy controls.
(American Psychological Association (APA), 2010)
We examined the relationship between neuropsychological performance and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the orbital frontal cortex (OFC) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) of the cingulum bundle (CB) within groups of ...
CNTNAP2 polymorphisms and structural brain connectivity: A diffusion-tensor imaging study
(Elsevier BV, 2013)
CNTNAP2 is a gene on chromosome 7 that has shown associations with autism andschizophrenia, and there is evidence that it plays an important role for neuronal synchronization and brain connectivity. In this study, we ...
Cingulum bundle integrity associated with delusions of control in schizophrenia: Preliminary evidence from diffusion-tensor tractography
(Elsevier BV, 2015)
Background—Delusions of control are among the most distinctive and characteristic symptoms of schizophrenia. Several theories have been proposed that implicate aberrant communication between spatially disparate brain regions ...
Auditory verbal hallucinations and the interhemispheric auditory pathway in chronic schizophrenia
(Informa UK Limited, 2014)
Objectives—The interhemispheric auditory pathway has been shown to play a crucial role in the processing of acoustic stimuli, and alterations of structural and functional connectivity between bilateral auditory areas are ...
Comparing free water imaging and magnetization transfer measurements in schizophrenia
(Elsevier BV, 2015)
Diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) has been extensively used to study the microarchitecture of white matter in schizophrenia. However, popular DWI-derived measures such as fractional anisotropy (FA) may be sensitive to many ...
Corpus Callosum Abnormalities and Their Association with Psychotic Symptoms in Patients with Schizophrenia
(Elsevier BV, 2010)
Background—Whilst the neuroanatomical underpinnings of the functional brain disconnectivity observed in patients with schizophrenia remain elusive, white matter fiber bundles of the brain are a likely candidate given that ...
Reduced fractional anisotropy and axial diffusivity in white matter in 22q11.2 deletion syndrome: A pilot study
(Elsevier BV, 2012)
Individuals with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS) evince a 30% incidence of schizophrenia. We compared the white matter (WM) of 22q11.2DS patients without schizophrenia to a group matched healthy controls using ...
