3q29 deletion (3q29Del) syndrome is caused by a 1.6 Mb copy number variant (CNV) located near the telomeric end of the long arm of the third human chromosome. Hemizygosity of this set of 22 protein-coding genes significantly increases risk for schizophrenia and autism spectrum disorders among other neurodevelopmental...

Schizophrenia isassociated with elevated incidence of type2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). Autoimmune responses targeting glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) may contribute to neurological disorders and diabetes development. Accordingly, the purpose of this research was to evaluate the clinical relevance of serum...

Cognitive deficits, particularly in working memory (WM), significantly impair functional outcomes in schizophrenia (SCZ). Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has shown potential for cognitive enhancement, but its efficacy remains inconsistent. We aimed to evaluate the acute effects of a single-session...

Oxidative stress is associated with the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. Peripheral non-enzymatic antioxidants can reflect the degree of oxidative stress and antioxidant levels, and can be used as markers of oxidative stress. However, the relationships between these markers and the clinical phenotypes...
