Bistable Perception Discriminates Between Depressive Patients, Controls, Schizophrenia Patients, and Their Siblings

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili, Simona Adele Garobbio

Background and Hypothesis Individuals with schizophrenia have less priors than controls, meaning they rely less upon their prior experiences to interpret the current stimuli. These differences in priors are expected to show as higher alternation rates in b ...

Time course of prediction errors in sequential decision making

Michael Herzog, He Xu

In reinforcement learning, an agent makes sequential decisions to maximize reward. During learning, the actual and expected outcome are compared to tell whether a decision was good or bad. The difference between the actual outcome and expected outcome is t ...

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 ...

Theta oscillations and minor hallucinations in Parkinson’s disease reveal decrease in frontal lobe functions and later cognitive decline

Olaf Blanke, Fosco Bernasconi

Cognitive decline and hallucinations are common and debilitating non-motor symptoms, usually occurring during later phases of Parkinson’s disease (PD). Minor hallucinations (MH) appear early in the disease course and have been suggested to predict cognitiv ...

Visual backward masking and the schizophrenia spectrum: EEG correlates

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

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 ...

Prefrontal engrams of long-term fear memory perpetuate pain perception

Johannes Gräff

A painful episode can lead to a life-long increase in an individual's experience of pain. Fearful anticipation of imminent pain could play a role in this phenomenon, but the neurobiological underpinnings are unclear because fear can both suppress and enhan ...

Electrophysiological correlates of visual backward masking in high schizotypic personality traits participants

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili, Christine Mohr, Ophélie Gladys Favrod

Visual backward masking is strongly deteriorated in patients with schizophrenia. Masking deficits are associated with strongly reduced amplitudes of the global field power in the EEG. Healthy participants who scored high in cognitive disorganization (a sch ...

Optical Urea Sensing in Sweat for Kidney Healthcare by Sensitive and Selective Non-enhanced Raman Spectroscopy

Christian Enz, Sandro Carrara, Assim Boukhayma, Ata Jedari Golparvar

Sweat biomarker analysis has attracted much interest in applications ranging from sports to wearable healthcare. Among all the sweat biomolecules, abnormal urea levels have been linked to several complications, particularly renal dysfunction. Here, we repo ...

Neural Correlates of Sequential Decision Making

Michael Herzog, He Xu

In chess, a series of moves is made until a delayed sparse feedback (win, loss) is issued, which makes it impossible to evaluate the value of a single move. There are powerful reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms, which can cope with these sequential dec ...

Systemic and central nervous system neuroinflammatory signatures of neuropsychiatric symptoms and related cognitive decline in older people

Loïc Dayon

Background Neuroinflammation may contribute to psychiatric symptoms in older people, in particular in the context of Alzheimer's disease (AD). We sought to identify systemic and central nervous system (CNS) inflammatory alterations associated with neuropsy ...

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 ...

Urolithin A improves mitochondrial health, reduces cartilage degeneration, and alleviates pain in osteoarthritis

Pamela Solange Valdés Undurraga

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common age-related joint disorder with no effective therapy. According to the World Health Organization, OA affects over 500 million people and is characterized by degradation of cartilage and other joint tissues, severe pai ...

Neural correlates of visual backward masking: Compensation mechanism in relatives of schizophrenia patients

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 Schizotypy

Michael Herzog, Ophélie Gladys Favrod, Christine Mohr

Visual deficits are well documented in schizophrenia. For example, a Vernier is followed by a blank inter-stimulus interval (ISI) and then a grating mask. Observers indicate the direction of the Vernier offset (left vs right). Patients need ISIs that are 1 ...

EEG Correlates of Backward Masking in Schizotypy

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili, Christine Mohr, Ophélie Gladys Favrod

Visual deficits are well documented in schizophrenia, especially in backward masking. In our task a Vernier is followed by a blank inter-stimulus interval (ISI) and then a grating mask. Observers indicate the direction of the Vernier offset (left vs right) ...

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 ...

The electrophysiological effects of the serotonin 1A receptor agonist buspirone in emotional face processing

Fosco Bernasconi

Emotional face processing is critically modulated by the serotonergic system, and serotonin (5-HT) receptor agonists impair emotional face processing. However, the specific contribution of the 5-HT1A receptor remains poorly understood. Here we investigated ...

Clinical correlates of white matter lesions in Parkinson's disease using automated multi-modal segmentation measures

Tobias Kober, Bénédicte Marie Maréchal

Background: Age-related white matter lesions (WML) are common, impact neuronal connectivity, and affect motor function and cognition. In addition to pathological nigrostriatal losses, WML are also common co morbidities in Parkinson's disease (PD) that affe ...

Endophenotypes of schizophrenia: electrophysiological correlates of first episode patients

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili, Albulena Jashari-Shaqiri, 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. During the last period of the NCCR, we have chara ...
