Abstract
Influenza A viruses (IAVs) of the H1N1 classical swine lineage became endemic in North American swine following the 1918 pandemic. Additional human-to-swine transmission events after 1918, and a spillover of H1 viruses from wild birds in Europe, potentiated a rapid increase in genomic diversity via reassortment between introductions and the endemic classical swine lineage. To determine mechanisms affecting reassortment and evolution, we conducted a phylogenetic analysis of N1 and paired HA swine IAV genes in North America between 1930 and 2020. We described fourteen N1 clades within the N1 Eurasian avian lineage (including the N1 pandemic clade), the N1 classical swine lineage, and the N1 human seasonal lineage. Seven N1 genetic clades had evidence for contemporary circulation. To assess antigenic drift associated with N1 genetic diversity, we generated a panel of representative swine N1 antisera and quantified the antigenic distance between wild-type viruses using enzyme-linked lectin assays and antigenic cartography. Within the N1 genes, the antigenic similarity was variable and reflected shared evolutionary history. Sustained circulation and evolution of N1 genes in swine had resulted in a significant antigenic distance between the N1 pandemic clade and the classical swine lineage. Between 2010 and 2020, N1 clades and N1–HA pairings fluctuated in detection frequency across North America, with hotspots of diversity generally appearing and disappearing within 2 years. We also identified frequent N1–HA reassortment events (n = 36), which were rarely sustained (n = 6) and sometimes also concomitant with the emergence of new N1 genetic clades (n = 3). These data form a baseline from which we can identify N1 clades that expand in range or genetic diversity that may impact viral phenotypes or vaccine immunity and subsequently the health of North American swine.

Abstract
Self-generated speech produces a smaller N1 amplitude in the auditory-evoked potential than externally generated speech; this phenomenon is known as N1-suppression. Schizophrenia patients show less N1-suppression than healthy controls. This failure to self-suppress may underlie patients' characteristic tendency to misattribute self-generated thoughts and actions to external sources. While the cause of N1-suppression deficits to speech in schizophrenia remains unclear, structural damage to the arcuate fasciculus is a candidate, due to its ostensible role in transmitting the efference copy of the motor plan to speak. Fifty-one patients with early illness schizophrenia (ESZ), 40 individuals at clinical high-risk for psychosis (CHR), and 59 healthy control (HC) participants underwent an electroencephalogram while they spoke and then listened to a recording of their speech. N1-suppression to the spoken sounds was calculated. Participants also underwent a diffusion-tensor imaging (DTI) scan, from which the arcuate fasciculus and pyramidal tract were extracted with deterministic tractography. ESZ patients exhibited significantly less N1-suppression to self-generated speech than HC participants, with CHR participants exhibiting intermediate levels. ESZ patients also exhibited structural abnormalities in the arcuate fasciculus-specifically, reduced fractional anisotropy and increased radial diffusivity-relative to both HC and CHR. There were no between-group differences in the structural integrity of the pyramidal tract. Finally, level of N1-suppression was linearly related to the structural integrity of the arcuate fasciculus, but not the pyramidal tract, across groups. These results suggest that the self-suppression deficits to willed speech consistently observed in schizophrenia patients may be caused, at least in part, by structural damage to the arcuate fasciculus.

Abstract
Schizophrenic patients suffer from many deficits including visual, attentional, and cognitive ones. Visual deficits are of particular interest because they are at the fore-end of information processing and can provide clear examples of interactions between sensory, perceptual, and higher cognitive functions. Visual deficits in schizophrenic patients are often attributed to impairments in the dorsal (where) rather than the ventral (what) stream of visual processing. We used a visual-masking paradigm in which patients and matched controls discriminated small vernier offsets. We analyzed the evoked electroencephalography (EEG) responses and applied distributed electrical source imaging techniques to estimate activity differences between conditions and groups throughout the brain. Compared with controls, patients showed strongly reduced discrimination accuracy, confirming previous work. The behavioral deficits corresponded to pronounced decreases in the evoked EEG response at around 200 ms after stimulus onset. At this latency, patients showed decreased activity for targets in left parietal cortex (dorsal stream), but the decrease was most pronounced in lateral occipital cortex (in the ventral stream). These deficiencies occurred at latencies that reflect object processing and fine shape discriminations. We relate the reduced ventral stream activity to deficient top-down processing of target stimuli and provide a framework for relating the commonly observed dorsal stream deficiencies with the currently observed ventral stream deficiencies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Perception-in-noise deficits have been demonstrated across many populations and listening conditions. Many factors contribute to successful perception of auditory stimuli in noise, including neural encoding in the central auditory system. Physiological measures such as cortical auditory-evoked potentials (CAEPs) can provide a view of neural encoding at the level of the cortex that may inform our understanding of listeners' abilities to perceive signals in the presence of background noise. To understand signal-in-noise neural encoding better, we set out to determine the effect of signal type, noise type, and evoking paradigm on the P1-N1-P2 complex. DESIGN Tones and speech stimuli were presented to nine individuals in quiet and in three background noise types: continuous speech spectrum noise, interrupted speech spectrum noise, and four-talker babble at a signal-to-noise ratio of -3 dB. In separate sessions, CAEPs were evoked by a passive homogenous paradigm (single repeating stimulus) and an active oddball paradigm. RESULTS The results for the N1 component indicated significant effects of signal type, noise type, and evoking paradigm. Although components P1 and P2 also had significant main effects of these variables, only P2 demonstrated significant interactions among these variables. CONCLUSIONS Signal type, noise type, and evoking paradigm all must be carefully considered when interpreting signal-in-noise evoked potentials. Furthermore, these data confirm the possible usefulness of CAEPs as an aid to understand perception-in-noise deficits.

Abstract
The N1 auditory event-related potential (ERP) is reduced in chronic schizophrenia, as is the P2 to attended tones. N1 reduction may be endophenotypic for schizophrenia, being reduced in twins of schizophrenic patients and showing heritability. Results in family members, however, are equivocal, with abnormally small N1 (consistent with an endophenotype) and abnormally large N1 (inconsistent with an endophenotype) reported. P2 has been little studied in schizophrenia or family members. One crucial step in establishing endophenotypes is to rule out causal chronicity factors. We examined schizophrenia patients within 1 year of first hospitalization (most within 2 wk), chronically ill patients, and matched controls to examine N1 and P2 reductions and disease stage. Two active target detection oddball tasks were used, one with 97-dB tones against 70-dB white masking noise, the second with 97-dB tones without noise. Results from 8 samples are reported: first-hospitalized patients and matched controls and chronic patients and matched controls for the 2 tasks. N1 and P2 were measured from the standard stimuli. N1 and P2 were significantly reduced in chronic patients, as expected, and reduced in first-hospitalized patients. Because N1 and P2 are reduced even at the first hospitalization for schizophrenia, they may serve as viable electrophysiological endophenotypes for the disorder. However, deficit early in the disease is necessary but not sufficient to establish these ERPs as endophenotypes. Deficits must next be demonstrated in at least a subset of unaffected family members, a crucial criterion for an endophenotype.

Abstract
Hemispheric lateralization of early event-related potentials (ERPs; e.g. N1) is largely based on anatomy of the afferent pathway; lateralization of later auditory ERPs (P2/N2, P250, P3b) is less clear. Using 257-channel EEG, the present study examined hemispheric laterality of auditory ERPs by comparing binaural and monaural versions of an auditory oddball task. N1 showed a contralateral bias over auditory cortex in both hemispheres as a function of ear of stimulation, although right hemisphere sources were activated regardless of which ear received input. Beginning around N1 and continuing through the time of P3b, right hemisphere temporal-parietal and frontal areas were more activated than their left hemisphere counterparts for stimulus evaluation/comparison and target detection. P250 and P3b component amplitudes, topographies, and source estimations were significantly influenced by ear of stimulation, with right hemisphere activity being stronger. This was particularly true for anterior temporal and inferior frontal sources which were more strongly associated with the later, more cognitive components (P250, P3b). Results are consistent with theories of a right hemisphere network that is prominently involved in sustained attention, stimulus evaluation, target detection, and working memory/context updating.

Abstract
Abnormal brain activity during the processing of simple sounds is evident in individuals with increased genetic liability for schizophrenia; however, the diagnostic specificity of these abnormalities has yet to be fully examined. Because recent evidence suggests that schizophrenia and bipolar disorder may share aspects of genetic etiology the present study was conducted to determine whether individuals with heightened genetic liability for each disorder manifested distinct neural abnormalities during auditory processing. Utilizing a dichotic listening paradigm, we assessed target tone discrimination and electrophysiological responses in schizophrenia patients, first-degree biological relatives of schizophrenia patients, bipolar disorder patients, first-degree biological relatives of bipolar patients and nonpsychiatric control participants. Schizophrenia patients and relatives of schizophrenia patients demonstrated reductions in an early neural response (i.e. N1) suggestive of deficient sensory registration of auditory stimuli. Bipolar patients and relatives of bipolar patients demonstrated no such abnormality. Both schizophrenia and bipolar patients failed to significantly augment N1 amplitude with attention. Schizophrenia patients also failed to show sensitivity of longer-latency neural processes (N2) to stimulus frequency suggesting a disorder specific deficit in stimulus classification. Only schizophrenia patients exhibited reduced target tone discrimination accuracy. Reduced N1 responses reflective of early auditory processing abnormalities are suggestive of a marker of genetic liability for schizophrenia and may serve as an endophenotype for the disorder.
