Background And Hypothesis: We have reported previously a reduction in superior temporal gyrus (STG) activation and in auditory verbal hallucinations (AHs) after real-time fMRI neurofeedback (NFB) in schizophrenia patients with AHs.

Study Design: With this randomized, participant-blinded, sham-controlled trial, we expanded our previous results. Specifically, we examined neurofeedback effects from the STG, an area associated with auditory hallucinations.

Evidence suggests that attenuated mismatch negative (MMN) waves have a close link to auditory verbal hallucinations (AVH) and their clinical outcomes, especially impaired neural oscillations such as θ, β representing attentional control. In current study, thirty patients with schizophrenia and AVH (SZ) and twenty-nine healthy controls (HC) underwent multi-feature MMN paradigm measurements including frequency and duration deviant stimuli (fMMN and dMMN). Clinical symptoms and MMN paradigm were followed up among SZ group after 8-week treatment.

Background: Auditory hallucinations, commonly associated with psychiatric conditions such as schizophrenia, can arise as side effects to certain medications. Several drug classes are commonly implicated in the causation of hallucinations, such as anticholinergics. Medication associated with disruption of steroid production may lead to neuropsychiatric disruption.

Immersive exposure to simulated visual hallucinations modulates high-level human cognition.

Conscious Cogn

Humane Technology Lab, Catholic University of Sacred Heart, Milan, Italy; Applied Technology for Neuro-Psychology Lab., Istituto Auxologico Italiano IRCCS, Milan, Italy. Electronic address:

Psychedelic drugs offer valuable insights into consciousness, but disentangling their causal effects on perceptual and high-level cognition is nontrivial. Technological advances in virtual reality (VR) and machine learning have enabled the immersive simulation of visual hallucinations. However, comprehensive experimental data on how these simulated hallucinations affects high-level human cognition is lacking.

Are AI chatbots concordant with evidence-based cancer screening recommendations?

Patient Educ Couns

January 2025

Wiser Healthcare, Sydney School of Public Health, Faculty of Medicine and Health, The University of Sydney, Australia; The Daffodil Centre, The University of Sydney, a joint venture with Cancer Council NSW, NSW, Australia.

Objective: This study aimed to assess whether information from AI chatbots on benefits and harms of breast and prostate cancer screening were concordant with evidence-based cancer screening recommendations.

Methods: Seven unique prompts (four breast cancer; three prostate cancer) were presented to ChatGPT in March 2024. A total of 60 criteria (30 breast; 30 prostate) were used to assess the concordance of information.
