Publications
Abnormal functional and structural asymmetry as biomarker for schizophreniaV Oertel-Knöchel
Neurophysiology and Neuroimaging Laboratory, Dept of Psychiatry, Goethe Univ, Frankfurt Main, Germany
Curr Top Med Chem 12:2434-51. 2012..We propose that abnormal cerebral asymmetry is an attractive biomarker candidate for schizophrenia that could index changes in a range of pathophysiological pathways...
Association between psychotic symptoms and cortical thickness reduction across the schizophrenia spectrumViola Oertel-Knöchel
Laboratory of Neuroscience, Department of Psychiatry, Psychosomatic Medicine and Psychotherapy, Johann Wolfgang Goethe University, 60528 Frankfurt Main, Germany
Cereb Cortex 23:61-70. 2013..Our findings suggest that changes in specific cortical areas may predispose to specific symptoms, as exemplified by the association between temporal cortex thinning and hallucinations...
Cortical-basal ganglia imbalance in schizophrenia patients and unaffected first-degree relativesV Oertel-Knöchel
Laboratory of Neuroscience, Dept of Psychiatry, Goethe Univ, Frankfurt Main, Germany
Schizophr Res 138:120-7. 2012..These results suggest that brain morphological changes associated with SZ are in part determined by genetic risk factors and are not entirely explained by effects of medication or changes secondary to illness...
Patterns of autobiographical memory in bipolar disorder examined by psychometric and functional neuroimaging methodsViola Oertel-Knöchel
Laboratory of Neuroscience, Department of Psychiatry, Psychosomatic Medicine and Psychotherapy, Goethe University, Frankfurt Main, Germany
J Nerv Ment Dis 200:296-304. 2012..More frequent intrusions from a person's past, which had a neural correlate in the lack of deactivation in some default mode network areas in BD patients, may contribute to manic or depressive symptoms...
Visual hallucinations in schizophrenia investigated with functional magnetic resonance imagingViola Oertel
Neurophysiology and Neuroimaging Laboratory, Deparment of Psychiatry, Goethe University, Frankfurt Main, Germany
Psychiatry Res 156:269-73. 2007..We assume that the hippocampal activity is related to the retrieval of visual images from memory and that sensory cortex activity is related to the vividness of the perceptual experience...
Mental imagery vividness as a trait marker across the schizophrenia spectrumViola Oertel
Neurophysiology and Neuroimaging Laboratory, Department of Psychiatry, Johann Wolfgang Goethe Universitat, Frankfurt Main, Germany
Psychiatry Res 167:1-11. 2009..These results suggest that vividness of mental imagery may be a trait marker across the schizophrenia spectrum. In addition we propose that imagery proneness is relatively independent of the individual psychopathology...
Reduced laterality as a trait marker of schizophrenia--evidence from structural and functional neuroimagingViola Oertel
Neurophysiology and Neuroimaging Laboratory, Department of Psychiatry, Goethe University, 60528 Frankfurt Main, Germany
J Neurosci 30:2289-99. 2010..Relatives had intermediate values between patients and controls on both structural and functional measures. This study provides added support for the idea that reduced hemispheric asymmetry is a biological risk factor for schizophrenia...
Discovery and development of integrative biological markers for schizophreniaViola Oertel-Knöchel
Laboratory of Neuroscience, Department of Psychiatry, Psychosomatic Medicine and Psychotherapy, Goethe University, Heinrich Hoffmann Str 10, D 60590, Frankfurt, Germany
Prog Neurobiol 95:686-702. 2011..They should also advance our understanding of the subtle and intricate biological nature of schizophrenia...
The corpus callosum in schizophrenia-volume and connectivity changes affect specific regionsAnna Rotarska-Jagiela
Department of Psychiatry, Neurophysiology and Neuroimaging Lab, Johann Wolfgang Goethe University, Frankfurt Main, Germany
Neuroimage 39:1522-32. 2008....
