Exploring the Link Between Intravoxel Incoherent Motion Measured Brain Diffusivity During Wakefulness and Sleep Macrostructure in the Elderly.

Intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) is a diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) method that models slow (D, tissue diffusivity) and fast (D*, microvascular perfusion) signal components (f, signal fraction). This observational study explores the relationship between I...

Seasonal longitudinal effects of winter birth on psychopathology, cognition, and functioning in schizophrenia-spectrum and affective disorders: Findings from the PsyCourse Study.

Aims Winter birth (WB) is a replicated risk factor for mental health conditions, potentially due to third-trimester Vitamin D deficiency and maternal viral infections. Beyond diagnosis, WB is associated with psychopathology, cognition, and functionality as epiphenomena. We analys...

Neural signatures of major depression across the episodic memory circuitry.

In major depressive disorder (MDD), episodic memory is compromised and linked to hippocampal dysfunction, yet the underlying neural circuitry remains poorly understood. We examined the circuits supporting episodic memory and assessed its MDD-associated anatomical connectivity fin...
