Journal ArticleDOI
Hippocampal changes associated with early-life adversity and vulnerability to depression
TL;DR: Smaller hippocampal volume in adolescents at high risk for depression suggests that it may be a vulnerability marker for the illness, potentially increasing the risk for depressive disorder.
Journal ArticleDOI
Non-invasive detection of 2-hydroxyglutarate and other metabolites in IDH1 mutant glioma patients using magnetic resonance spectroscopy
Whitney B. Pope,Robert M. Prins,M. Albert Thomas,Rajakumar Nagarajan,Katharine E. Yen,Mark A. Bittinger,Noriko Salamon,Arthur P. Chou,William H. Yong,Horacio Soto,Neil E. Wilson,Edward M. Driggers,Hyun Gyung Jang,Shinsan M. Su,David P. Schenkein,Albert Lai,Timothy F. Cloughesy,Harley I. Kornblum,Hong Wu,Valeria Fantin,Linda M. Liau +20 more
TL;DR: Water-suppressed proton (1H) MRS provides a non-invasive measure of 2-HG in gliomas, and may serve as a potential biomarker for patients with IDH1 mutant brain tumors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Decreased Anterior Cingulate Myo-inositol/Creatine Spectroscopy Resonance with Lithium Treatment in Children with Bipolar Disorder
Pablo Davanzo,M. Albert Thomas,Kenneth Yue,Thomas Oshiro,Thomas R. Belin,Michael Strober,James T. McCracken +6 more
TL;DR: Preliminary data provide evidence that a significant reduction in anterior cingulate myo-inositol magnetic resonance may occur after lithium treatment, especially among responders.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased anterior cingulate/medial prefrontal cortical glutamate and creatine in bipolar depression.
Mark A. Frye,June Watzl,Shida Banakar,Joseph O'Neill,Jim Mintz,Pablo Davanzo,Jeffrey Fischer,Jason W. Chirichigno,Joseph Ventura,Shana Elman,John Tsuang,Irwin Walot,M. Albert Thomas +12 more
TL;DR: Baseline 1HMRS spectra suggest that non-melancholic bipolar depression is characterized by increased glutamate coupled with increased energy expenditure, and lamotrigine appears to reduce glutamine levels associated with treatment remission.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of MR Imaging to Determine Preservation of the Neurovascular Bundles at Robotic-assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy
Timothy D. McClure,Daniel Margolis,Robert E. Reiter,James Sayre,M. Albert Thomas,Rajakumar Nagarajan,Mittul Gulati,Steven S. Raman +7 more
TL;DR: Preoperative prostate MR imaging data changed the decision to use a nerve-sparing technique during RALP in 27% of patients in this series.
