Temporal Discrimination: Mechanisms and Relevance to Adult-Onset Dystonia [PDF]
Temporal discrimination is the ability to determine that two sequential sensory stimuli are separated in time. For any individual, the temporal discrimination threshold (TDT) is the minimum interval at which paired sequential stimuli are perceived as ...

Is there an association between advanced paternal age and endophenotype deficit levels in schizophrenia? [PDF]
The children of older fathers have increased risks of developing schizophrenia spectrum disorders, and among those who develop these disorders, those with older fathers present with more severe clinical symptoms.

High Dimensional Endophenotype Ranking in the Search for Major Depression Risk Genes [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Despite overwhelming evidence that major depression is highly heritable, recent studies have localized only a single depression-related locus reaching genome-wide significance and have yet to identify a causal gene.

Is decision-making impairment an endophenotype of anorexia nervosa?
Background Patients with anorexia nervosa (AN) show impaired decision-making ability, but it is still unclear if this is a trait marker (i.e., being associated with AN at any stage of the disease) or a state parameter of the disease (i.e., being present ...

Genetics in the ADHD Clinic: How Can Genetic Testing Support the Current Clinical Practice?
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder with a childhood prevalence of 5%. In about two-thirds of the cases, ADHD symptoms persist into adulthood and often cause significant functional impairment.

Slower Peak Pupillary Response to Emotional Faces in Parents of Autistic Individuals
BackgroundAtypical autonomic arousal has been consistently documented in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and is thought to contribute to the social-communication phenotype of ASD. Some evidence suggests that clinically unaffected first-degree relatives of

Social anxiety disorder (SAD) runs in families, but the neurobiological pathways underlying the genetic susceptibility towards SAD are largely unknown. Here, we employed an endophenotype approach, and tested the hypothesis that amygdala hyperreactivity ...
