At issue: stress, hippocampal neuronal turnover, and neuropsychiatric disorders
Abstract
Stress-induced changes in the glucocorticoid system may be toxic for hippocampal cells in animals. Recently, neurogenesis has been shown in the rat, the primate, and the human hippocampus. Because chronic stress is associated with some neuropsychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia, it is possible that an imbalance in the normal turnover of hippocampal cells plays a role in the pathophysiology not only of schizophrenia but also of other neuropsychiatric disorders that involve high levels of stress. New therapeutic possibilities arise if such a process is proven to occur.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
