Digital Technology to Deliver a Lifestyle-Integrated Exercise Intervention in Young Seniors—The PreventIT Feasibility Randomized Controlled Trial

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu

Background: Behavioral change is the key to alter individuals' lifestyle from sedentary to active. The aim was to assess the feasibility of delivering a Lifestyle-integrated Functional Exercise programme and evaluate the delivery of the intervention by use ...

A novel psychoanalytical approach: An electrochemical ligand-binding assay to screen antipsychotics

Sandro Carrara, Tugba Kilic

Schizophrenia treatment may see a paradigm shift due to development of new atypical antipsychotic drugs (APDs), with better tolerability due to more selective dopamine (DA) receptor blockade. Monitoring of these APD candidates in biological fluids is of gr ...

Cortical Dysconnectivity Measured by Structural Covariance Is Associated With the Presence of Psychotic Symptoms in 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Marie Schaer, Maude Schneider

BACKGROUND: 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) is the third-largest known genetic risk factor for the development of psychosis. Dysconnectivity has consistently been implicated in the physiopathology of psychosis. Structural covariance of cortical morphol ...

More Medicines for Tuberculosis: Fuelling Drug Discovery against Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Shi-Yan Caroline Foo

Tuberculosis (TB), whose etiological agent is Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis), has plagued humanity since antiquity. Even with chemotherapy available today, TB is the leading cause of death due to an infectious disease. Modern day factors, suc ...

Perception of visual illusions is intact in schizophrenia

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili, Lukasz Grzeczkowski, Albulena Jashari-Shaqiri

There seems to be no common factor for visual perception because performance levels in many visual tasks correlate only weakly with each other. Similar results were found with visual illusions. However, one may expect common visual factors for individuals ...

Backward masking performance in patients with functional psychoses

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili

In visual backward masking, a target is followed by a blank screen (ISI - Inter-stimulus-interval) and, then, a mask which deteriorates target processing. Schizophrenic patients show strong but complex processing deficits in visual masking compared to heal ...

Impaired cognitive functioning in first-episode patients

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili

The first psychotic episode is an important period for prevention of cognitive and social deterioration in schizophrenia. Cognitive deficits are of particular interest since they are evident even before a proper diagnosis can be made. Interestingly, there ...

Schizophrenia patients and 22q11.2 deletion syndrome adolescents at risk express the same deviant patterns of resting state EEG microstates: A candidate endophenotype of schizophrenia

Michael Herzog, Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Maya Roinishvili, Maude Schneider, Fikret Isik Karahanoglu

Schizophrenia is a complex psychiatric disorder and many of the factors contributing to its pathogenesis are poorly understood. In addition, identifying reliable neurophysiological markers would improve diagnosis and early identification of this disease. T ...

Visual backward masking deficits in schizotypy are observed in late but not early onset nicotine smokers

Michael Herzog, Christine Mohr

Visual backward masking (VBM) is a potential endophenotype for schizophrenia. Relative VBM deficits were also observed in high as compared to low scorers in one schizotypal subdimension (cognitive disorganisation, CogDis; Cappe et al., 2012). VBM deficits ...

Safe Implementation of Embedded Software for a Portable Device Supporting Drug Administration

Giovanni De Micheli, Yann Thoma, Alena Simalatsar, Wenqi You Dubout

Poor adherence to medical regimen causes approximately 33% to 69% of medication-related hospitalizations and accounts for $100 billion in annual health care costs. In this paper we address the problem of unintentional non adherence, when patient fails to t ...

New antituberculosis drugs, regimens, and adjunct therapies: needs, advances, and future prospects

Stewart Cole

About 1.3 million people died of tuberculosis in 2012, despite availability of effective drug treatment. Barriers to improvements in outcomes include long treatment duration (resulting in poor patient adherence and loss of patients to follow-up), complex r ...

Backward masking reveals different visual processing of schizophrenic and depressive patients

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili

Visual backward masking is a very sensitive tool for studying early visual processing deficits and a reliable endophenotype of schizophrenia. Mental diseases strongly overlap in many aspects, for example, in psychopathology, cognition, and genetics. Here, ...

Visual backward masking deficits in schizophrenic patients are associated with polymorphisms in the nicotinic receptor α7 subunit gene (CHRNA7)

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili

Visual backward masking (BM) deficits are often proposed to be trait markers for schizophrenia revealing the genetic underpinnings of the disease. Here, we show that, indeed, masking deficits in the shine-through effect are associated with polymorphisms in ...

Deteriorated visual backward masking in the shine-through effect in adolescents with psychosis

Michael Herzog

Visual backward masking is a reliable and widely used tool in schizophrenia research. Whereas many studies have shown masking deficits in adult patients, there are only very few studies with adolescents with psychosis-and with controversial results. Maskin ...

Differential effects of reduced cyclic stretch and perturbed shear stress within the arterial wall

Due to the pulsatile nature of blood flow, arteries are constantly exposed to dynamic mechanical forces; the pulsatility continuously stretches the vessel wall and the flow creates a frictional force on the interior surface. These stresses, referred to as ...
