title: Bulking up the hippocampus in schizophrenia: a role for 5-HT1Aagonists?
abstract: CONCLUSIONS
  The volume of the hippocampus is reduced in patients with schizophrenia, and this deficit tends to become more pronounced with chronicity. Newer antipsychotics may protect against the progressive reductions in hippocampal volume while preliminary data offer hope that specific antipsychotics may act to reverse it.
