Multi-centre classification of functional neurological disorders based on resting-state functional connectivity

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Jonas Richiardi

Background: Patients suffering from functional neurological disorder (FND) experience disabling neurological symptoms not caused by an underlying classical neurological disease (such as stroke or multiple sclerosis). The diagnosis is made based on reliable ...

Genetic selection for low glucocorticoid responsiveness recapitulates PTSD-related phenotypes: a behavioral, neuroimaging and sleep-physiology study

Silvia Monari

Humans show inter-individual differences in vulnerability to develop post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) following exposure to trauma. Several critical biobehavioral features have been consistently described in PTSD patients, including blunted cortisol l ...

Brain connectivity and metacognition in persons with subjective cognitive decline (COSCODE): rationale and study design

Ileana Ozana Jelescu

Background Subjective cognitive decline (SCD) is the subjective perception of a decline in memory and/or other cognitive functions in the absence of objective evidence. Some SCD individuals however may suffer from very early stages of neurodegenerative dis ...

Hallucination Engineering: From Neuroscience Robotics to Hallucinations in Health and Disease

Eva Blondiaux

My thesis focuses on a psychotic symptom called the presence hallucination (PH). PHs are defined as the false perception that someone is nearby when no one is actually present. PHs can occur in various populations, ranging from healthy subjects (when expos ...

A wearable electrochemical sensing system for non-invasive monitoring of lithium drug in bipolar disorder

Giovanni De Micheli, Sandro Carrara, Irene Taurino, Francesca Criscuolo

Lithium represents the main drug for the treatment of Bipolar Disorder (BD) as it acts as a mood stabilizer. However, because of its narrow therapeutic window, psychiatric patients are obliged to frequent tests in hospital to control their lithium blood co ...

Flexible sweat sensors for non-invasive optimization of lithium dose in psychiatric disorders

Giovanni De Micheli, Sandro Carrara, Irene Taurino, Francesca Criscuolo

Lithium is the main mood stabilizer in bipolar disorders and other psychiatric conditions. However, lithium levels in blood must be monitored frequently during therapies because of its narrow therapeutic range. For this reason the patients, whose quality o ...

Psychotropic drug-induced genetic-epigenetic modulation of CRTC1 gene is associated with early weight gain in a prospective study of psychiatric patients

Johannes Gräff, Jose Vicente Sanchez Mut, Aurélie Delacrétaz, Céline Dubath

Background: Metabolic side effects induced by psychotropic drugs represent a major health issue in psychiatry. CREB-regulated transcription coactivator 1 (CRTC1) gene plays a major role in the regulation of energy homeostasis and epigenetic mechanisms may ...

Influence of MCHR2 and MCHR2-AS1 Genetic Polymorphisms on Body Mass Index in Psychiatric Patients and In Population-Based Subjects with Present or Past Atypical Depression

Pierre Magistretti, Aurélie Delacrétaz

Obesity development during psychotropic treatments represents a major health issue in psychiatry. Melanin-concentrating hormone receptor 2 (MCHR2) is a central receptor involved in energy homeostasis. MCHR2 shares its promoter region with MCHR2-AS1, a long ...
