Mortality Risks after Two Years in Frail and Pre-Frail Older Adults Admitted to Hospital
(MDPI, 2023-04-24)
Background: Frailty is characterized by a progressive decline in the physiological functions of multiple body systems that lead to a more vulnerable condition, which is prone to the development of various adverse events, ...
Cross-Validation of Predictive Equation for Cardiorespiratory Fitness by Modified Shuttle Walk Test in Adults with Schizophrenia: A Secondary Analysis of the CORTEX-SP Study
(MDPI, 2021-10-29)
Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) can be direct or estimated from different field tests. The Modified Shuttle Walk Test (MSWT) is suitable for all levels of function, allowing a peak response to be elicited. Therefore, we ...
Neurocognitive, social cognitive, and clinical predictors of creativity in schizophrenia
(Pergamon-Elsevier, 2020-10)
Background: Creativity is considered an essential human accomplishment and a key component for daily life problem solving. It has been suggested that impairment in working memory, cognitive flexibility, and theory of mind ...
The impact of creativity on functional outcome in schizophrenia: a mediational model
(Springer, 2021-02-26)
Functional impairment remains one of the most challenging issues for treatment in schizophrenia. However, previous studies have mainly focused on the negative impact of symptoms excluding variables that could positively ...
Cannabinoid Control of Olfactory Processes: The Where Matters
(MDPI, 2020-04-16)
Olfaction has a direct influence on behavior and cognitive processes. There are different neuromodulatory systems in olfactory circuits that control the sensory information flowing through the rest of the brain. The presence ...
Cannabinoid control of hippocampal functions: thewherematters
(Wiley, 2022-04)
In the brain, hippocampal circuits are crucial for cognitive performance (e.g., memory) and deeply affected in pathological conditions (e.g., epilepsy, Alzheimer). Specialized molecular mechanisms regulate different cell ...
Oligodendroglial Energy Metabolism and (re)Myelination
(MDPI, 2021-03-13)
Central nervous system (CNS) myelin has a crucial role in accelerating the propagation of action potentials and providing trophic support to the axons. Defective myelination and lack of myelin regeneration following ...
Specific Hippocampal Interneurons Shape Consolidation of Recognition Memory
(Cell Press, 2020-08-18)
A complex array of inhibitory interneurons tightly controls hippocampal activity, but how such diversity specifically affects memory processes is not well understood. We find that a small subclass of type 1 cannabinoid ...
Synucleinopathy alters nanoscale organization anddiffusion in the brain extracellular space throughhyaluronan remodeling
(Nature, 2020-07-10)
In recent years, exploration of the brain extracellular space (ECS) has made remarkable progress, including nanoscopic characterizations. However, whether ECS precise conformation is altered during brain pathology remains ...
Super-Resolution STED Microscopy in live Brain Tissue
(Elsevier, 2021-08)
STED microscopy is one of several fluorescence microscopy techniques that permit imaging at higher spatial resolution than what the diffraction-limit of light dictates. STED imaging is unique among these super-resolution ...
