Temporal dynamics of intranasal oxytocin in human brain electrophysiology

Patricia Figueiredo, Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz

Oxytocin (OT) is a key modulator of human social cognition, popular in behavioral neuroscience. To adequately design and interpret intranasal OT (IN-OT) research, it is crucial to know for how long it affects human brain function once administered. However ...

EEG signatures of schizophrenia: visual backward masking and microstates

Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz

Schizophrenia is a complex and devastating mental disorder that influences how one behaves, feels, and thinks. It affects a little less than 1 % of the world population and it is understood to be partly genetically mediated. Several genetic risk factors of ...

Population modelling of the He II energy levels in tokamak plasmas: I. Collisional excitation model

Helium is widely used as a fuel or minority gas in laboratory fusion experiments, and will be present as ash in DT thermonuclear plasmas. It is therefore essential to have a good understanding of its atomic physics. To this end He II population modelling h ...

The EEG multiverse of schizophrenia

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili, Patricia Figueiredo, Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz, Ophélie Gladys Favrod, Wei-Hsiang Lin, Dario Alejandro Gordillo Lopez

Research on schizophrenia typically focuses on one paradigm for which clear-cut differences between patients and controls are established. Great efforts are made to understand the underlying genetical, neurophysiological, and cognitive mechanisms, which ev ...

14 MeV calibration of JET neutron detectors-phase 1: calibration and characterization of the neutron source

In view of the planned DT operations at JET, a calibration of the JET neutron monitors at 14 MeV neutron energy is needed using a 14 MeV neutron generator deployed inside the vacuum vessel by the JET remote handling system. The target accuracy of this cali ...

Visual backward masking in siblings of schizophrenia patients: evidence for a compensation mechanism

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili, Patricia Figueiredo, Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz

Visual backward masking (VBM) is a very sensitive endophenotype of schizophrenia. Masking deficits are highly correlated with reduced EEG amplitudes. In VBM, a target stimulus is followed by a mask, which decreases performance on the target. Here, we inves ...

Electrophysiological correlates of visual backward masking in patients with major depressive disorder

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

Depression and schizophrenia are two psychiatric diseases with high co-morbidity. For this reason, it is important to find sensitive endophenotypes, which may disentangle the two disorders. The Shine-Through paradigm, a visual backward masking task, is a p ...

About common factors in vision

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili, Lukasz Grzeczkowski, Ophélie Gladys Favrod, Aline Françoise Cretenoud, Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz, Simona Adele Garobbio, Dario Alejandro Gordillo Lopez

Often, we intuitively assume that there are common factors in life. For example, we test people with a visual acuity test to determine whether they are allowed to drive a car or not- with the implicit assumption that the acuity test is representative of vi ...

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

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili, Ophélie Gladys Favrod, 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 ...

EEG microstates are a candidate endophenotype for schizophrenia

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili, Christine Mohr, Patricia Figueiredo, Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz, Ophélie Gladys Favrod

Electroencephalogram microstates are recurrent scalp potential configurations that remain stable for around 90 ms. The dynamics of two of the four canonical classes of microstates, commonly labeled as C and D, have been suggested as a potential endophenoty ...

Visual masking deficits in schizophrenia: a view into the genetics of the disease through an endophenotype

Michael Herzog, Jacques Fellay, Albulena Jashari-Shaqiri, Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz, Flavia Aurelia Shoko Hodel

Schizophrenia is a severe psychiatric disorder determined by a complex mixture of genetic and environmental factors. To better understand the contributions of human genetic variations to schizophrenia, we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of ...

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

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

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 ...

Neural markers of social dominance: A female-focused perspective

Michael Herzog, Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz, Wei-Hsiang Lin

Social interactions are fundamental to human life, with social dominance being a key factor in these interactions. Previous studies have shown that dominant males are faster in decision-making tasks compared to non-dominant ones, even in the absence of a s ...

Compensation of visual backward masking deficits in relatives of schizophrenia patients

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili, Patricia Figueiredo, Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz

Visual backward masking (VBM) is a potential endophenotype of schizophrenia reflecting the genetic underpinnings of the disease (Chkonia et al., 2010). Masking deficits are highly correlated with reduced N1 amplitudes as shown by the Global Field Power (GF ...

Electrophysiological correlates of visual backward masking in first-episode psychosis

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

Schizophrenia is a heterogeneous disorder and among other symptoms, patients have important visual impairments. Visual paradigms are therefore important tools to investigate the mechanisms of schizophrenia. We have previously shown that visual backward mas ...

A novel automatic pre-processing pipeline for EEG analysis based on robust statistics

Michael Herzog, Patricia Figueiredo, Vitaly Chicherov, Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz

The electroencephalogram (EEG) is a non-invasive and low-cost tool for the investigation of human brain function. However, EEG data are typically contaminated with a number of artifacts. With the advent of both high-density EEG arrays and studies of large ...
