Background: Cognitive impairment is a common symptom in both Schizophrenia (SZ) and Bipolar Disorder (BD), and studies have demonstrated memory impairment in patients with these disorders. Objectives: To compare memory impairment in patients with SZ, BD with psychosis, and BD without psychosis. Materials & Methods: This study was a cross-sectional study conducted on 42 patients referred to Sh...

White matter (WM) neuroimaging studies have shown varied findings at different stages of schizophrenia (SZ). Understanding these variations may elucidate distinct markers of genetic vulnerability and conversion to psychosis. To examine the similarities and differences in WM connectivity between those at-risk for and in early stages of SZ, a cross-sectional diffusion tensor imaging study of 48 i...

Data suggest that individuals with schizophrenia (SZ) and superior intelligence can present without specific neurocognitive deficits. However, neurocognitive decrements, defined as worse cognition than expected, have been reported in practically all SZ cases. This study investigated if neurocognitive decrements are present in intellectually superior SZ by comparing the neuropsychological profil...

The effects of streptozotocin (SZ) and N-nitrosobis(2-oxopropyl)amine (BOP), separately or in combination, on the pancreas, common duct, and gallbladder, all target tissues of BOP, were studied in Syrian golden hamsters. Groups of hamsters were treated with either a single dose (20 mg/kg body weight) of BOP (BOP group), or a single i.p. dose (50 mg/kg body weight) of SZ and 14 days later with a...

Groups of hamsters were treated with either a single dose (20 mg/kg body weight) of BOP (BOP group), or a single i.p. dose (§0mg/ kg body weight) of SZ and 14 days later with...

The present article deals with the study on approximation properties of well known Sz?sz-Mirakyan operators. We estimate quantitative Voronovskaja type asymptotic formula for Sz?sz-Baskakov operators and difference between hybrid Sz?sz having weights Baskakov basis in terms weighted modulus continuity

BACKGROUND Patients with deficit schizophrenia (D-SZ) differ from patients with the non-deficit form of schizophrenia (ND-SZ) in several aspects such as risk factors, neurobiological correlates, treatment response and clinical outcome. It has been debated if brain morphology could differentiate D-SZ from ND-SZ. Anterior cingulate gyrus (ACG) region regulates cognitive and emotional processing a...

Learning and memory impairments are present in schizophrenia (SZ) throughout the illness course and predict psychosocial function. Abnormalities in prefrontal and hippocampal function are thought to contribute to SZ deficits. The radial arm maze (RAM) is a test of spatial learning and memory in rodents that relies on intact prefrontal and hippocampal function. The goal of the present study was ...

It is well-known that the sum of two $z$-ideals in $C(X)$ is either $C(X)$ or a $z$-ideal. The main aim of this paper is to study the sum of strongly $z$-ideals in ${mathcal{R}} L$, the ring of real-valued continuous functions on a frame $L$. For every ideal $I$ in ${mathcal{R}} L$, we introduce the biggest strongly $z$-ideal included in $I$ and the smallest strongly $z$-ideal containing ...
