TL;DR: The results suggest a diagnostic delay for women with schizophrenia, which might be shortened by screening women aged 20–65 participating in affective disorder programs, and clinicians should take care not to undertreatWomen with schizophrenia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antoin D. de Weijer,Sebastiaan F. W. Neggers,Kelly M. J. Diederen,René C.W. Mandl,René S. Kahn,Hilleke E. Hulshoff Pol,Iris E. C. Sommer +6 more
TL;DR: As increased MTR in the arcuate fasciculus was present in both hallucinating groups, a specific association with AVH seems plausible, and a general decrease in fractional anisotropy for almost all bundles was observed in the patient group, but not in the non‐psychotic individuals withAVH.
Journal ArticleDOI
A novel concurrent TMS-fMRI method to reveal propagation patterns of prefrontal magnetic brain stimulation.
Jord J. T. Vink,Stefano Mandija,Petar I. Petrov,Cornells A. T. van den Berg,Iris E. C. Sommer,Iris E. C. Sommer,Sebastiaan F. W. Neggers +6 more
TL;DR: The propagation of TMS‐induced activity from the DLPFC to sgACC may be an accurate biomarker for rTMS efficacy and further research is required to determine whether this method can contribute to the selection of patients with treatment resistant MDD who will respond to rT MS treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Iris E. C. Sommer,L. M. E. Smit +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report on 19 children with arachnoidal cysts of varying location and size, and the mean follow-up time is 6 years and the evolution of presenting symptoms, the developmental course, the occurrence of complications, the surgical intervention performed and its outcome are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sex hormones and oxytocin augmentation strategies in schizophrenia: A quantitative review.
TL;DR: Estrogens and SERMs could be effective augmentation strategies in the treatment of women with schizophrenia, although potential side effects, partially associated with longer duration use, should be taken into account.
