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 ...
Widespread white matter degeneration preceding the onset of dementia
(Elsevier BV, 2015)
Background—Brain atrophy in subjects with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) introduces partial volume effects, limiting the sensitivity of diffusion tensor imaging to white matter microstructural degeneration. Appropriate ...
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 ...
The Sport Concussion Education Project. A brief report on an educational initiative: from concept to curriculum
(Journal of Neurosurgery Publishing Group (JNSPG), 2014)
Current research on concussion is primarily focused on injury identification and treatment. Prevention initiatives are, however, important for reducing the incidence of brain injury. This report examines the development ...
Clinical high risk and first episode schizophrenia: Auditory event-related potentials
(Elsevier BV, 2015)
The clinical high risk (CHR) period is a phase denoting a risk for overt psychosis during which subacute symptoms often appear, and cognitive functions may deteriorate. To compare biological indices during this phase with ...
Molecular Profiles of Pyramidal Neurons in the Superior Temporal Cortex in Schizophrenia
(Informa Healthcare, 2014)
Disrupted synchronized oscillatory firing of pyramidal neuronal networks in the cerebral cortex in the gamma frequency band (i.e., 30–100 Hz) mediates many of the cognitive deficits and symptoms of schizophrenia. In fact, ...
Applying a free-water correction to diffusion imaging data uncovers stress-related neural pathology in depression
(Elsevier, 2015)
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) holds promise for developing our understanding of white-matter pathology in major depressive disorder (MDD). Variable findings in DTI-based investigations of MDD, however, have thwarted ...
Quantitative Volumetric MRI Study of the Cerebellum and Vermis in Schizophrenia: Clinical and Cognitive Correlates
(American Psychiatric Publishing, 2016-09-14)
Objective: Recent evidence suggests that the cerebellum may play a role in higher cognitive functions and, therefore, may play an important role in schizophrenia. Method: The authors used magnetic resonance imaging to ...
Abnormal white matter microstructure and increased extracellular free-water in the cingulum bundle associated with delusions in chronic schizophrenia
(Elsevier, 2016)
Background: There is growing evidence to suggest that delusions associated with schizophrenia arise from altered structural brain connectivity. The present study investigated whether structural changes in three major ...
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 ...
