Differences in Brains of Women and Men with Schizophrenia

Researchers have identified key differences between the way males and females with schizophrenia process the emotional states of others than those without the condition. The study reports those with schizophrenia use less complex brain regions than healthy controls to process other people’s emotions.

The research team from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai found that females without schizophrenia used more complex areas of their brains to identify someone else’s mental state, including other’s beliefs, desires, intentions, and emotions. The healthy males used less complex brain regions to process others’ mental states.Both women and men with schizophrenia used less complex brain regions to process the emotional states of others. Men with schizophrenia used less complex brain regions for processing than healthy men.

Parkinson's disease and Neurosurgery

The first-line treatment for Parkinson disease (PD), levodopa paired with carbidopa , did more than revolutionize treatment for PD when it entered use in the 1960s, it also largely replaced the use of neurosurgeries , especially pallidotomy and thalamotomy, that had been used in PD care since the beginning of the 20th century. When it became evident that patients would experience dyskinesias and on/off periods after long-term use of levodopa, whether from the drug itself or from the disease's progression, attention returned to pallidotomy and thalamotomy in the 1990s. Several experimental therapies for PD have so far dead-ended. Gamma-knife thalamotomy enjoyed brief interest but has now fallen by the wayside for PD nearly everywhere because of its high-risk adverse effect profile, Dr Martello said. Stem cell transplantation has similarly shown too many adverse effects, and gene therapy simply has not shown much benefit. To explore more insights on Brain Disorders Co...

Dementia due to Huntington disease

Visit: Brain Disorders Conferences Huntington's disease (HD), also known as Huntington's chorea, is an inherited disorder that results in death of brain cells. The earliest symptoms are often subtle problems with mood or mental abilities. A general lack of coordination and an unsteady gait often follow. Mental abilities generally decline into dementia.
