The present investigation explores the relationship between facial emotion recognition (FER) and symptom domains in three groups of schizophrenia spectrum patients (43 ultra-high-risk, 50 first episode and 44 multi-episode patients) in which the existence of FER impairment has already been demonstrated. Regression analysis showed that symptoms and FER impairment are related in multi-episode patients, regardless of the illness duration. We suggest that the link between symptoms and FER impairment is involved in the progression of the disease.

Unlabelled: The aim of this research is to investigate whether ferroptosis occurs in the pathogenesis of perioperative neurocognitive disorders (PND), and to explore the function and underlying molecular mechanism of tsRNA in the regulation of ferroptosis in PND. A PND aged mice model was established and behavioral changes and ferroptosis occurrence were confirmed. The effect of ferroptosis inhibitor ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1) on PND mice was detected.

Deficits in social cognition may impair emotional processing and facial emotional recognition (FER) in patients with bipolar disorder (BD) and schizophrenia. FER is generally explored using photographs or images of static faces that do not fully capture the complexity of real-life facial stimuli. To overcome this limitation, we developed a set of dynamic virtual faces depicting six basic emotions (i.

Article Synopsis
  • The text discusses autism spectrum disorder, focusing on the challenges faced in recognizing facial expressions due to occlusions like glasses or facial hair.
  • It proposes a new system called the Improved DenseNet-based Residual Cross-Attention Transformer (IDenseNet-RCAformer) aimed at improving facial expression recognition for individuals with autism.
  • The IDenseNet-RCAformer has shown impressive results, achieving an accuracy of 98.95% in identifying facial expressions despite partial occlusions, aided by advanced techniques for feature extraction and fusion.

Elaeagnus glabra f. oxyphylla (EGFO), a member of the Elaeagnaceae family, is an evergreen plant distinct from other species in its genus. We previously reported that ethanol extract from EGFO has memory improvement effects in a short-term memory deficit mouse model and anti-inflammatory effects in a microglial cell line.
