Journal ArticleDOI

Transplanted adrenal chromaffin cells in rat brain reduce lesion-induced rotational behaviour

TL;DR: How grafts of adrenal medulla can be used with similar effects, involving chromaffin cells is described, both for basic research and possible clinical applications, is the requirement for fetal central nervous donor tissue.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anteroposterior gradients in cerebral glucose use in schizophrenia and affective disorders.

TL;DR: Local cerebral uptake of deoxyglucose labeled with fluorine 18 was measured by positron emission tomography in patients with schizophrenia and patients with affective disorder, sharing a lack of diagnostic specificity with many biologic measures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Brain electrical activity mapping (BEAM) in schizophrenic patients.

TL;DR: A new topographic approach, brain electrical activity mapping, summarizes EEG and evoked potential data as color maps, finding that both schizophrenic groups had more slow activity in frontal regions, and more fast activity in postcentral regions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Asymmetrical volumes of the right and left frontal and occipital regions of the human brain.

TL;DR: The results confirm observations made with computed tomography and indicate that this nonrandom asymmetrical pattern is an early manifestation of human brain development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Positron emission tomography in schizophrenic patients with and without neuroleptic medication

TL;DR: Positron emission tomography using [18F]2-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose was performed in chronic schizophrenic patients both when medication-free and when medicated with neuroleptics, and there was no change in anterior/posterior metabolic gradients.
