The autism brain imaging data exchange: Towards a large-scale evaluation of the intrinsic brain architecture in autism
(2014)Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) represent a formidable challenge for psychiatry and neuroscience because of their high prevalence, lifelong nature, complexity and substantial heterogeneity. Facing these obstacles requires ... -
Effect of childhood maltreatment on brain structure in adult patients with major depressive disorder and healthy participants.
(2014)BACKGROUND: Childhood maltreatment has been found to play a crucial role in the development of psychiatric disorders. However, whether childhood maltreatment is associated with structural brain changes described for ... -
Effects of a novel schizophrenia risk variant rs7914558 at CNNM2 on brain structure and attributional style.
(2014)BACKGROUND: A single nucleotide polymorphism (rs7914558) within the cyclin M2 (CNNM2) gene was recently identified as a common risk variant for schizophrenia. The mechanism by which CNNM2 confers risk is unknown. AIMS: To ... -
Interplay Between Childhood Physical Abuse and Familial Risk in the Onset of Psychotic Disorders.
(2014)Background : Childhood abuse is considered one of the main environmental risk factors for the development of psychotic symptoms and disorders. However, this association could be due to genetic factors influencing ... -
Repeated insulin-like growth factor 1 treatment in a patient with rett syndrome: a single case study.
(2014)Rett syndrome (RTT) is a devastating neurodevelopmental disorder that has no cure. Patients show regression of acquired skills, motor, and speech impairment, cardio-respiratory distress, microcephaly, and stereotyped hand ... -

(2014)BACKGROUND: Studies of the long-term course and outcome of psychoses tend to focus on cohorts of prevalent cases. Such studies bias samples towards those with poor outcomes, which may distort our understanding of ... -
Allelic differences between Europeans and Chinese for CREB1 SNPs and their implications in gene expression regulation, hippocampal structure and function, and bipolar disorder susceptibility.
(2014)Bipolar disorder (BD) is a polygenic disorder that shares substantial genetic risk factors with major depressive disorder (MDD). Genetic analyses have reported numerous BD susceptibility genes, while some variants, such ... -
Polygenic dissection of diagnosis and clinical dimensions of bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.
(2014)Bipolar disorder and schizophrenia are two often severe disorders with high heritabilities. Recent studies have demonstrated a large overlap of genetic risk loci between these disorders but diagnostic and molecular ...
