***There’s no “take on this topic” it’s hard science.
Cerebral ventricles are often swollen between 5-15%,
compressing gray matter (big uh-oh) and the rest is as follows:
frontal lobe defect, impaired temporal lobe and thalamus,
abnormal hippocampus (memory problem woohoo!)
Too many eliminated synapses are “pruned” which means
destroyed during adolescence in the frontal lobe.
Too little activity in left frontal lobe (avolition)
too little in right lobe (disorganization).
Enlarged ventricles means squished temporal lobes,
which means ■■■■■■ up language and visual processes,
think hallucinations, and then a smaller thalamus
which is responsible for sensory info, like attention
problems and memory issues.Hippocampus- storage
and retrieval of info- ■■■■ is shrunken even in the schizers
relatives.Interactions between brain regions-
all nicely ■■■■■■ up.Facts!***
