Schizophrenia is a psychotic disorder with an increasing prevalence and incidence over the last two decades. The condition presents with a diverse array of positive, negative, and cognitive impairments. Conventional treatments often yield unsatisfactory outcomes, especially with negative symptoms.

Neuroinflammation and neuroprogression in depression: Effects of alternative drug treatments.

Given that available antidepressant pharmacotherapies are not optimally effective, there is a need for alternative treatment options that are rooted in a comprehensive understanding of the illness's pathophysiology. Major depressive disorder (MDD) has been historically attributed to monoamine, i.e.

Portable Remote Imaging Spectrometer coastal ocean sensor: design, characteristics, and first flight results.

The design, characteristics, and first test flight results are described of the Portable Remote Imaging Spectrometer, an airborne sensor specifically designed to address the challenges of coastal ocean remote sensing. The sensor incorporates several technologies that are demonstrated for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, in a working system in order to achieve a high performance level in terms of uniformity, signal-to-noise ratio, low polarization sensitivity, low stray light, and high spatial resolution. The instrument covers the 350-1050 nm spectral range with a 2.
