Newest firstThe Benson Complex Figure Test (BCFT) is a neuropsychological tool designed to assess visuospatial construction and visual memory with lower complexity than traditional tests. This study evaluated its ability to differentiate between major dementia subtypes. In a retrospective cross-sectional analysis of 1428 participants from a Greek third-age day center (healthy participants [Controls]; patients diagnosed with A…
Open article record in new tab ↗Polysialic acid (PSA), a highly negatively charged glycan attached mainly to the neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM), is emerging as a critical but underrecognized extracellular regulator of glutamatergic neurotransmission. While previous literature has focused on PSA's developmental roles, increasing evidence indicates that PSA-NCAM also contributes to synaptic plasticity mechanisms in the mature brain. This rev…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background Only a subset of cannabis users develop persistent psychosis, implying that genetic vulnerability modulates risk. HLA-DR/DQ variation is a strong non-dopaminergic risk locus for schizophrenia, but its role in cannabis-related psychosis is unclear. Methods We studied 296 cannabis users from Romanian psychiatric services, grouped as non-psychosis (0), non-schizophrenia psychosis (1) and schizophrenia (2).…
Atypical parkinsonian disorders-progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), corticobasal degeneration (CBD), and multiple system atrophy (MSA)-are rare, rapidly progressive neurodegenerative syndromes characterized by distinct molecular pathologies, heterogeneous clinical phenotypes, and limited therapeutic options. Accurate diagnosis remains a major clinical challenge, especially during early and prodromal phases, due…
Open article record in new tab ↗Volatile organic compounds, colloquially referred to as "terpenes", have been proposed to impact the therapeutic qualities that are traditionally ascribed to cannabis. However, the contribution of these terpenes in anxiety, at relevant levels and exposure methods common with cannabis use, is lacking empirical assessment. We tested the anxiolytic properties of two prominent cannabis terpenes, linalool and β-myrcene…
