Immunoglobulin and albumin content of cerebrospinal fluid in schizophrenic patients: relationship to negative symptomatology.

Müller N, Ackenheil M.SourcePsychiatric Hospital, University of Munich, Germany.
Schizophrenia research.Schizophr Res.1995 Feb;14(3):223-8.
Alterations of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) protein contents and the blood brain barrier (BBB) in schizophrenia have been observed by several authors but no relationship to clinical characteristics like psychopathology, the course or the duration of the disease could be described until now. We have

The Ganser syndrome: evidence suggesting its classification as a dissociative disorder.

Cocores JA, Santa WG, Patel MD.AbstractThe past and present nosology of Ganser's syndrome is discussed. The anomaly is defined as the presence of approximate answers with hallucinations, clouded sensorium, somatic conversion, and amnesia. The characteristic symptom of the syndrome, paralogia, is appreciated as an associated feature of Factitious Disorder with Psychological Symptoms. It is suggested that Ganser syndrome may be linked inappropriately with the concept of factitious illness. Two new cases of the Ganser syndrome are presented, and an additional forty-one case reports are reviewed. A high correlation between the presence of paralogia and amnesia is revealed, which suggests that paralogia and related psychological symptoms are better classified as associated features of Atypical Dissociative Disorder.

Schizophrenia and semantic aphasia: a clinical comparison.

Portnoff LA.AbstractIn recent years, there has been an emerging body of evidence which suggests that some types of schizophrenia may have a neurologic pathogenesis. This paper is addressed to the exploration of cortical mechanisms in schizophrenia by comparing the language disturbances of chronic schizophrenia with those of semantic aphasia. While there is little commonality between schizophrenic word-salad and jargon aphasia, there are similarities between schizophrenic agrammatism and semantic aphasia in terms of impressive and expressive grammar and in the manifestation of paraphasia and paralogia. It is concluded that while no cortical lesions are likely in schizophrenia, there may be a neurologic arousal/attention abnormality which impairs cortical efficiency, giving rise to a language disturbance symptomatically similar to, but pathogenically different from semantic aphasia.
