In this fMRI study we examined the functional connectivity of the cerebellum and the frontal cortex in patients diagnosed with schizophrenia in two states – psychosis and remission – and compared it with the connectivity in healthy adults. These regions in crus 1 proofed to have a higher connectivity to the medioprefrontal cortex in patients than in the healthy control group. Taking the latest literature into account we regard this finding to be an endogenous failing trail of compensation, which might open a new approach in the therapy of schizophrenia.     «
