Abnormal Medial Prefrontal Cortex Resting-State Connectivity in Bipolar Disorder and Schizophrenia
Xiaoqian J. Chai,Susan Whitfield-Gabrieli,Ann K. Shinn,Ann K. Shinn,John D. E. Gabrieli,Alfonso Nieto Castanon,Julie M. McCarthy,Bruce M. Cohen,Bruce M. Cohen,Dost Öngür,Dost Öngür +10 more
TL;DR: Functional connectivity between MPFC and insula/VLPFC distinguished bipolar disorder from schizophrenia, and may reflect differences in the affective disturbances typical of each illness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid Enhancement of Glutamatergic Neurotransmission in Bipolar Depression Following Treatment with Riluzole
Brian P. Brennan,Brian P. Brennan,James I. Hudson,James I. Hudson,J. Eric Jensen,J. Eric Jensen,Julie M. McCarthy,Jacqueline L. Roberts,Andrew P. Prescot,Bruce M. Cohen,Bruce M. Cohen,Harrison G. Pope,Harrison G. Pope,Perry F. Renshaw,Dost Öngür,Dost Öngür +15 more
TL;DR: Riluzole seems to rapidly increase Gln/Glu ratios—suggesting increased glutamate–glutamine cycling, which may subsequently enhance neuronal plasticity and reduce depressive symptoms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Elevated Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid Levels in Chronic Schizophrenia
Dost Öngür,Dost Öngür,Andrew P. Prescot,Julie M. McCarthy,Bruce M. Cohen,Bruce M. Cohen,Perry F. Renshaw +6 more
TL;DR: Elevated GABA/creatinine levels are found in participants with chronically treated schizophrenia and a positive correlation between GABA/Creatine and glutamate/creatine is found, which was not accounted for by % GM or brain region.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Motivation and Pleasure Scale-Self-Report (MAP-SR): reliability and validity of a self-report measure of negative symptoms.
Katiah Llerena,Stephanie G. Park,Julie M. McCarthy,Shannon M. Couture,Melanie E. Bennett,Jack J. Blanchard +5 more
TL;DR: The revised 15-item MAP-SR demonstrated good internal consistency and convergent validity with the clinician-rated Motivation and Pleasure scale of the CAINS, as well as good discriminant validity, with little association with psychotic symptoms or depression/anxiety.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inefficient effort allocation and negative symptoms in individuals with schizophrenia
Julie M. McCarthy,Julie M. McCarthy,Michael T. Treadway,Melanie E. Bennett,Jack J. Blanchard +4 more
TL;DR: The results did not support the hypothesized association of negative symptoms and reduced effort in schizophrenia and highlight prior inconsistencies in this literature.
