N2  - The main goal of this functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) study was to verify the hypothesis that seriously violent persons with Sz and the co-morbid diagnoses of an Antisocial Personality Disorder (APD) and a Substance Use Disorder (Sz+APD+SUD) would present a different pattern of prefrontal functioning than seriously violent persons with Sz only. In support with the main hypothesis, frontal basal cortices were significantly less activated in persons with Sz+APD+SUD during the execution of a go/no-go task than in persons with Sz only and non-violent persons without a mental illness. In contrast, significantly higher activations in frontal motor, premotor and anterior cingulate regions were observed in the Sz+APD+SUD group than in the Sz-only group.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
