We analyse the relation between local two-atom and total multi-atom entanglements in the Dicke system composed of a large number of atoms. We use concurrence as a measure of entanglement between two atoms in the multi-atom system, and the spin squeezing parameter as a measure of entanglement in the whole n-atom system. In addition, the influence of

Immune system dysregulation may be involved in schizophrenia, but biomarker studies have thus far reported inconsistent findings. The relationship of plasma levels of complement markers C3 and C4, with schizophrenia, sociodemographic and clinico-psychological factors were here studied in 183 patients and 212 controls.

Schizophrenia is a chronic mental illness with no specific biomarker. Diagnosis and treatment monitoring mostly depend on clinical symptomatology. A number of immune related proteins have been found to be linked with schizophrenia, but the magnitude of associations are modest at best. This might be due to heterogenous nature of schizophrenia, with

Introduction: Leucine-rich-repeat transmembrane neuronal protein 1 (LRRTM1) is a synaptic adhesion molecule involved in synapse organization. DNA hypomethylation of the LRRTM1 gene promoter was shown to be associated with familial schizophrenia. However, the association with schizophrenia in general and its symptom severity is still unknown. This s
