A footpath in the Square de la Tour Saint-Jacques in Paris is named for the dancer Vaslav Nijinsky (1889–1950). It was in the nearby Théâtre du Châtelet that the ‘God of Dance’ astounded audiences and scandalized critics with...
Pio del Rio-Hortega was not only the discoverer of the microglia and oligodendroglia but also possibly the most prolific mentor of all Santiago Ramon y Cajal's disciples (Nobel awardee in Physiology or Medicine 1906 and...
BACKGROUND: Despite a large body of schizophrenia research, we still have no reliable predictors to guide treatment from illness onset. The present study aimed to identify baseline clinical or neurobiological factors - including...
INTRODUCTION: Clozapine plasma levels are useful to monitor drug compliance, and also to assess and to prevent some side effects. Recently, routine monitoring to all clozapine-treated patients has been proposed to prevent...
AIM: We examined whether timing of known risk factors for schizophrenia may influence the development of schizophrenia with primary negative symptoms. METHOD: This cross-sectional single-centre study in England used a clinical...
Cognitive dysfunction is a hallmark feature of schizophrenia, often presenting in patients with psychotic disorders since the first episode (1) or earlier (2). Antipsychotic medication is effective for treating the positive...
Negative symptoms are a debilitating feature of schizophrenia which are often resistant to pharmacological intervention. The mechanisms underlying them remain poorly understood, and diagnostic methods rely on phenotyping through...
People with schizophrenia and primary negative symptoms (deficit schizophrenia) differ from those without such symptoms (nondeficit schizophrenia) on risk factors, course of illness, other signs and symptoms, treatment response...
Motivated by the very low diffusivity recently found in ab initio simulations of liquid water, we have studied its dependence with temperature, system size, and duration of the simulations. We use ab initio molecular dynamics...
Negative symptoms are a debilitating feature of schizophrenia which are often resistant to pharmacological intervention. The mechanisms underlying them remain poorly understood, and diagnostic methods rely on phenotyping through...
INTRODUCTION:The prevalence of diabetes in schizophrenia is twice that in the general population, but there are few reliable predictors of which individuals will develop glucose dysregulation. OBJECTIVE:To test if abnormal birth...
Persisting symptoms and dysfunction after SARS-CoV-2 infection have frequently been observed. However, information on the aftermath of COVID-19 is inadequate. We followed up people with severe mental illness (SMI) infected with...
BACKGROUND: The licensed indications for valproate are narrow, yet this medication is commonly prescribed in mental health services. OBJECTIVES: To explore the target symptoms/behaviours for which valproate is prescribed and how...

Finite-range numerical atomic orbitals are the basis functions of choice for several first principles methods, due to their flexibility and scalability. Generating and testing such basis sets, however, remains a significant...
