Mismatch negativity predicts recovery from the vegetative state.
OBJECTIVE Mismatch negativity (MMN) is an automatic event related brain response, well investigated in the acute phase after severe brain injury: the presence of a MMN is often found to predict the emergence from coma, and the exclusion of shifting into a vegetative state (VS). In the present study MMN was examined during recovery from VS. METHODS Ten vegetative patients were repeatedly exami...
متن کاملMismatch negativity
New perspectives in cognitive1,2 and clinical3,4 neuroscience have been opened up with the recent discovery of mismatch negativity (MMN),5 an auditory event-related brain potential (ERP) elicited by infrequent deviant sounds occurring in a sequence of repeated tones.1 The MMN appears as a negative displacement on the ERP to deviant sounds relative to that to standard sounds, with a peak latency...
متن کاملRecovery From Vegetative State: A Four-Years Follow Up
Although the general observation that the longer the duration of the vegetative state, the lower the probability of emerging from it remains true, reports of late improvement are ever more common in the literature. The aim of this study was to verify evolution from Vegetative State in a group of inpatients in a Neurorehabilitation facility and to identify the parameters increasing the likelihoo...
متن کاملMismatch Negativity: Translating the Potential
The mismatch negativity (MMN) component of the auditory event-related potential has become a valuable tool in cognitive neuroscience. Its reduced size in persons with schizophrenia is of unknown origin but theories proposed include links to problems in experience-dependent plasticity reliant on N-methyl-d-aspartate glutamate receptors. In this review we address the utility of this tool in revea...
متن کاملSerotonergic modulation of mismatch negativity.
Neurochemical mechanisms mediating the interaction between emotional and cognitive processing are not yet fully understood. Here, we utilized acute tryptophan depletion (ATD) to reduce the brain synthesis of serotonin (5-HT), which is thought to have a central role in regulation of emotions and mood in humans. ATD effects on event-related potentials and magnetic fields were studied using a pass...
