Augmented gamma band auditory steady-state responses: Support for NMDA hypofunction in schizophrenia
Schizophrenia Research, 05/08/2012
Hamm JP et al. – The findings highlight differential characteristics of low versus high frequency and induced versus entrained oscillatory auditory responses in both schizophrenia (SZ) and healthy stimulus processing, provide support for an NMDA–receptor hypofunction–based pharmacological model of SZ, and report a novel pattern of auditory steady–state responses abnormalities suggesting that gamma band neural entrainment deviations among SZ may be more complex than previously supposed, including possibly being substantially influenced by physical stimulus properties.
