Phantom Boarder Relates to Experimentally‐Induced Presence Hallucinations in Parkinson's Disease

Olaf Blanke, Fosco Bernasconi, Jevita Potheegadoo

Phantom boarder (PB) is the sensation that someone uninvited is in the patient's home despite evidence to the contrary. It is mostly reported by patients with neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, dementia with Lewy bodies or Parkinson's ...

Cannabis use, cannabis use disorder and mental health disorders among pregnant and postpartum women in the US: A nationally representative study

Aaron Leor Sarvet

Background: Cannabis use and cannabis use disorder (CUD) are associated with mental health disorders, however the extent of this matter among pregnant and recently postpartum (e.g., new moms) women in the US is un-known. Associations between cannabis use, ...

Atomic-level structure determination of amorphous molecular solids by NMR

David Lyndon Emsley, Arthur César Pinon, Pinelopi Moutzouri, Manuel Cordova

Structure determination of amorphous materials remains challenging, owing to the disorder inherent to these materials. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) powder crystallography is a powerful method to determine the structure of molecular solids, but disorder ...

Identifying Disease-Specific Neural Reactivity to Psychosocial Stress in Borderline Personality Disorder

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville

BACKGROUND: Patients with borderline personality disorder (BPD) typically present emotion dysregulation (ED) when faced with adversity. However, it is argued that altered stress response may be more influenced by ED than BPD-specific traits. Here, we inves ...

Topological lattices realized in superconducting circuit optomechanics

Tobias Kippenberg, Amir Youssefi, Mahdi Chegnizadeh, Andrea Bancora, Shingo Kono, Tatiana Vovk

Cavity optomechanics enables the control of mechanical motion through the radiation-pressure interaction(1), and has contributed to the quantum control of engineered mechanical systems ranging from kilogramme-scale Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave O ...

eNAMPT actions through nucleus accumbens NAD + /SIRT1 link increased adiposity with sociability deficits programmed by peripuberty stress

Johan Auwerx, Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Jocelin Grosse, Olivia Zanoletti, Simone Astori, Marie-Isabelle Guillot de Suduiraut, João Pedro de Matos Rodrigues, Wei Huang, Ioannis Zalachoras, Sriparna Ghosal, Laia Morato Fornaguera, Lei Cao

Obesity is frequently associated with impairments in the social domain, and stress at puberty can lead to long-lasting changes in visceral fat deposition and in social behaviors. However, whether stress-induced changes in adipose tissue can affect fat-to-b ...

The shine-through paradigm and the schizophrenia spectrum: a summary

Michael Herzog, Simona Adele Garobbio, Maya Roinishvili, Ophélie Gladys Favrod, Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz

In the past 10 years, our laboratory has proved the shine-through paradigm to be a very sensitive endophenotype for schizophrenia. The shine-through paradigm is a visual backward masking task, where the target is a vertical vernier followed by a 25-element ...

Exploiting Long-Range Disorder in Slow-Light Photonic Crystal Waveguides: Anderson Localization and Ultrahigh Q/V Cavities

Juan Pablo Vasco Cano

The interplay between order and disorder in photonic lattices opens up a wide range of novel optical scattering mechanisms, cavity-mode resonances, and applications that can be obscured by typical ordered design approaches to photonics. Striking examples i ...

Discoidin domain receptor 1 gene variants are associated with decreased white matter fractional anisotropy and decreased processing speed in schizophrenia

Erick Jorge Canales Rodriguez

DDR1 has been linked to schizophrenia (SZ) and myelination. Here, we tested whether DDR1 variants in people at risk for SZ influence white matter (WM) structural variations and cognitive processing speed (PS). First, following a case-control design (Study ...

Electrophysiological correlates of visual backward masking in the schizophrenia continuum

Ophélie Gladys Favrod

In visual backward masking (VBM), a target is followed by a mask. Over the past decade, a VBM task, called the Shine-Through paradigm (ST), has been shown to be a very sensitive endophenotype of schizophrenia. In the present thesis, the electrophysiologica ...

Visual masking and schizophrenia: enhancement deficit 200 ms after stimulus onset

Michael Herzog, Ophélie Gladys Favrod, Maya Roinishvili, Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz

Masking is strongly deteriorated in schizophrenia patients and to a lesser extent in their healthy relatives. For this reason, masking is a good endophenotype. Here, we show the EEG correlates of masking across the schizophrenia continuum in order to tackl ...

Resting-State Networks of Adolescents Experiencing Depersonalization-Like Illusions: Cross-sectional and Longitudinal Findings

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, François Lazeyras

The mirror-gazing task (MGT) experimentally induces illusions, ranging from simple color changes in the specular image of oneself, to depersonalization-like anomalous self-experiences (ASE) as in experiencing one's specular image as someone else. The objec ...

Cortical morphology development in patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome at ultra-high risk of psychosis

Maude Schneider, Marie Schaer, Daniela Maria Zöller, Maria Carmela Padula

Background. Patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) present a high risk of developing psychosis. While clinical and cognitive predictors for the conversion towards a full-blown psychotic disorder are well defined and largely used in practice, neu ...

Visual backward masking and the schizophrenia spectrum: EEG correlates

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili, Ophélie Gladys Favrod, Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz, Albulena Jashari-Shaqiri

Schizophrenia is a heterogeneous disease strongly influenced by genetic factors. We have previously shown that visual backward masking (VBM) is a very sensitive endophenotype of schizophrenia (Chkonia et al., 2010). Importantly, not only patients but also ...

Effects of paternal and peripubertal stress on aggression, anxiety, and metabolic alterations in the lateral septum

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Nathalie Just, Maria Isabel Cordero Campana, Guillaume Poirier

Early-life stress and biological predispositions are linked to mood and personality disorders related to aggressive behavior. We previously showed that exposure to peripubertal stress leads to increased anxiety-like behaviors and aggression against males a ...

Solvation of Palladium Clusters in an Ionic Liquid: A QM/MM Molecular Dynamics Study

Paul Joseph Dyson

The mechanism of solvation and stabilization of palladium nanoparticles in the 1,3-dimethylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ionic liquid (IL) has been studied using a combination of density functional theory and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations-with hybrid ...

The 16p11.2 locus modulates brain structures common to autism, schizophrenia and obesity

Nouchine Hadjikhani, Loyse Hippolyte

Anatomical structures and mechanisms linking genes to neuropsychiatric disorders are not deciphered. Reciprocal copy number variants at the 16p11.2 BP4-BP5 locus offer a unique opportunity to study the intermediate phenotypes in carriers at high risk for a ...

Glutathione deficit impairs myelin maturation: relevance for white matter integrity in schizophrenia patients

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Rolf Gruetter, Lijing Xin, Alessandra Griffa, Kim Do, Aline Monin, Patric Hagmann, Philipp Baumann

Schizophrenia pathophysiology implies both abnormal redox control and dysconnectivity of the prefrontal cortex, partly related to oligodendrocyte and myelin impairments. As oligodendrocytes are highly vulnerable to altered redox state, we investigated the ...
