AIM: The study aimed to explore by means of single-trial event-related potentials (ERPs), whether and how the medication change from older neuroleptics to quetiapine in schizophrenic patients led to a significant cognitive enhancement. This ... Read more...
26 Jun 2009 OBJECTIVE: Identify the optimal magnitude of response to antipsychotic medication at various early time points that best predicts subsequent non-response at 8 weeks. METHODS: Data were pooled from 5 randomized, double-blind clinical trials of ... Read more...
30 Mar 2009 Behavioral detection of a low-frequency (40 Hz) vibratory dipole at source distances of 1.5-24 cm was measured by classically conditioned respiratory suppression in goldfish (Carassius auratus). Detection thresholds were compared across distances ... Read more...
