Journal ArticleDOI

Anatomical abnormalities in the brains of monozygotic twins discordant for schizophrenia.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors found that subtle abnormalities of cerebral anatomy (namely, small anterior hippocampi and enlarged lateral and third ventricles) are consistent neuropathologic features of schizophrenia and that their cause is at least in part not genetic.
Journal ArticleDOI

Seasonality of births in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder: a review of the literature

TL;DR: Attempts to correlate the seasonal birth excess with specific features of schizophrenia suggest that winter-spring births are probably related to urban births and to a negative family history, and statistical artifact and parental procreational habits are unlikely explanations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lateral cerebral ventricular enlargement in chronic schizophrenia.

TL;DR: This study shows that lateral cerebral ventricular enlargement is associated with chronic schizophrenia and suggests that this is not a result of treatment, and shows that the 44 chronic schizophrenic patients who had never been treated with electroshock therapy (EST) had larger ventricles than controls.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Stanley Foundation brain collection and Neuropathology Consortium

TL;DR: The Neuropathology Consortium is a subset of 60 specimens from the collection, well-matched groups of 15 each with diagnoses of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder without psychotic features, and normal controls, to provide a more complete picture of the neuropathology of these disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI
