You can find the video of the review on our YouTube channel at this link. Review of the article from Kaster et al. (2015) titled “Clozapine potentiation of GABA mediated cortical inhibition in treatment resistant schizophrenia” in which the main objective was to measure transcranial magnetic stimulation indices of cortical inhibition over the motor cortex…
FMRI RESULTS AT REST AND ABNORMAL EXPERIENCES OF THE SELF IN SCHIZOPHRENIA (BY ALEJANDO ROIG)Watch the video here. In this video an explanation is carried out on the possible relationship between the default mode network and abnormal experiences of the self in schizophrenia. The default mode network is a set of brain areas that have…
Resting-state networks and social cognition in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder (María Queipo, psychiatrist Hospital Clínico Universitario de Valladolid). Review of the article “Linking resting-state networks and social cognition in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder” (Jimenez et al., 2019; Hum Brain Mapp). Individuals with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder show alterations in the functional connectivity of neural networks…
Auditory evoked potentials, corollary discharge and alterations of the “Self” in psychotic disorder.(Rosa M. Beño and Antonio Arjona, SUCEDE researchers). You can watch the video here (in Spanish). As we have already commented on other occasions, Corollary Discharge (CD) is the mechanism that has the function of being able to distinguish perceptions that are self-generated…
Adela Pérez, psychiatrist collaborating with the SUCEDE group reviewed the following article: Raballo et al., (2021) The self in the spectrum: a meta-analysis linking basic self-disorders and schizophrenia. Watch it on our YouTube Channel. Disorders of the ‘Self’ have been extensively studied over the last 20 years, as well as their relationship to schizophrenia and…
Associations Between Schizophrenia Polygenic Liability, Symptom Dimensions, and Cognitive Ability in Schizophrenia (Legge et al., 2021). Bibliographic session by Rosa M. Beño, predoctoral researcher SUCEDE: https://youtu.be/QwE2hBsnlXk Schizophrenia is a clinically very heterogeneous disorder and it is currently unclear how the genetic burden for presenting with this illness is associated with the different variability these individuals…
PRELIMINARY ANALYSIS OF RESTING-STATE CORRELATIONS fMRI – IPASE (Dr. Álvaro Planchuelo; video: https://youtu.be/VTswA__Nu_0) Preliminarily, the relationship between functional connectivity measured from resting functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) and anomalous experiences of the self is proposed. The starting hypothesis is that increased resting functional activity (inhibition deficit) in patients with schizophrenia is linked to increased abnormal…
You can watch the video of the full session on our YouTube channel at this link. In our last session, Inés Fdez Linsenbarth, predoctoral researcher at SUCEDE, briefly explains what her research project on brain magnetic stimulation (BMS) consists of. She summarizes it as follows: One of the most important SUCEDE’s research findings is that…
Vicent Llorca, visiting psychiatrist in the SUCEDE group, today reviews the following scientific article: “Abnormal ERPs and Brain Dynamics Mediate Basic Self Disturbance in Schizophrenia: A Review of EEG and MEG Studies” (Hamilton and Northoff, 2021). You can watch the video here (in Spanish). Alterations of the self are characteristic phenomena of schizophrenia and have…
STATE OF THE ART AND PROPOSED INTEGRATION OF RESTING FMRI DATA WITH OTHER MODALITIES (BY ÁLVARO PLANCHUELO) Watch the session on our YouTube channel (in Spanish). Direct comparison of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data between groups of patients with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder and healthy controls has been performed in multiple studies in the…
