Association between relative temporal and prefrontal sulcal cerebrospinal fluid and illness duration in schizophrenia.
Changes in sulcal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) volume have been related to the neurodegeneration hypothesis in schizophrenia. Fifty-three (24 neuroleptic-naive) schizophrenics and a control group (n=26) were studied with MRI to assess regional sulcal CSF values relative to the total volume of brain lobes (prefrontal, orbital, temporal, parietal, and occipital). Segmentation of brain structures was...
متن کاملCortical sulcal enlargement in catatonic schizophrenia: a planimetric CT study.
To determine whether patients with catatonic schizophrenia have specific alterations in brain morphology, internal (ventricles) and external (frontal, temporal, parieto-occipital) components of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) spaces were examined morphometrically. Planimetric measurements of computed tomographic (CT) scans from 37 patients with catatonic schizophrenia, 28 patients with hebephreni...
متن کاملProgressive brain volume changes and the clinical course of schizophrenia in men: a longitudinal magnetic resonance imaging study.
BACKGROUND We sought to determine whether the brain dysmorphology previously observed cross-sectionally in people with schizophrenia progresses over time and whether such progression is related to the severity of the illness course. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Men with chronic schizophrenia (n = 24) and control men (n = 25) received 2 brain magnetic resonance imaging scans, on average 4 years apart....
متن کاملP300 amplitude as a possible correlate of frontal degeneration in schizophrenia.
The existence of neurodegeneration is a debated issue in schizophrenia research. The P300 component of event-related electrical potentials (ERP) has been related to the different degree of damage to gray and white matter. This study explores the possible relationship between P300 amplitude and/or latency and the existence of degenerative processes in schizophrenia, by assessing its correlation ...
متن کاملFrontal lobe volumes in schizophrenia: effects of stage and duration of illness.
While the changes in the volume of the temporal lobe and its sub-regions over the course of illness have been studied in patients with schizophrenia, few studies have examined changes in the frontal lobe between the first episode and the chronic stage. In this study, we focussed on the effect of illness stage and duration of illness on the volume of frontal lobe regions, though we also examined...
