Language measures may be sensitive markers of risk for dementia and its onset.
To determine if these variables contribute to the risk status, we plotted them against currently used markers of risk, including ISS, IMWG, and time to relapse (Fig. 2).
Thus, nicotine improves performance on both attention and oculomotor markers of risk for schizophrenia, possibly via common mechanisms.
That might mean early markers of risk, analogous to high cholesterol levels, that predict who is likely to get it.
But the best they have are studies that look at intermediate markers of risk, like cholesterol levels.
We investigated the effect of nicotine on three behavioral markers of risk for schizophrenia: sustained attention (using the Continuous Performance Task (CPT)), antisaccade performance, and smooth pursuit.
Overall, preclinical (and clinical) PTSD researchers are increasingly incorporating homologous biological measures to assess markers of risk, response, and treatment outcome.
The identification of premorbid markers of risk for psychopathology is one of the most important challenges for present-day psychiatric research.
The prodromal phase is potentially important in defining markers of risk for progression to psychotic illness and investigating novel biological and psychological treatments to prevent a transition to psychosis.
Tissue proportions of long chain n − 6 [especially arachidonic acid (AA)] and n − 3 fatty acids [FA; eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) acids], or some ratio of these may be markers of risk for coronary heart disease (CHD).
To examine whether and when effects of cumulative adversity in the first 7 years of life are evident in relation to 3 childhood markers of risk for poor adult physical health.
