Scents and nonsense: olfactory dysfunction in schizophrenia.
Among the sensory modalities, olfaction is most closely associated with the frontal and temporal brain regions that are implicated in schizophrenia and most intimately related to the affective and mnemonic functions that these regions subserve. Olfactory probes may therefore be ideal tools through which to assess the structural and functional integrity of the neural substrates that underlie dis...
متن کاملOlfactory Coding: Random Scents Make Sense
Stimulating arbitrary collections of as few as 300 neurons in the primary olfactory cortex of mice suffices for associative learning independent of any odor stimulation. Thus, programmed spatial relationships may not exist in piriform cortex, making flexible random associations the rule.
متن کاملOlfactory Dysfunction and Phantosmia in Patients With COVID-19 in Northern Iran
Background: One of the most common symptoms of COVID-19 infection is Olfactory Dysfunction (OD). Objectives: This study aims to investigate OD and phantosmia in COVID-19 cases from northern Iran. Materials & Methods: In this cross-sectional study, participants were 400 patients with COVID-19 infection in Rasht, Iran from March 2019 to September 2020. All the patients were evaluated in terms o...
متن کاملOlfactory Identification in Schizophrenia
Olfactory identification performance and olfactory thresholds in patients with schizophrenia were investigated in this study. Three primary questions were raised: (a) Do neuroleptically medicated schizophrenic patients demonstrate significant olfactory identification deficits in the absence of olfactory acuity (threshold) deficits when compared with (i) non-schizophrenic, neuroleptically unrned...
متن کاملDecrements in volume of anterior ventromedial temporal lobe and olfactory dysfunction in schizophrenia.
CONTEXT Patients with schizophrenia exhibit olfactory deficits, but it is unclear whether these represent a specific abnormality. The link between olfactory impairments and regional brain abnormalities has yet to be established. OBJECTIVES To determine whether patients with schizophrenia exhibit volumetric deficits in the anterior ventromedial temporal lobe, the target for neuronal inputs fro...
