Correlation of qEEG with PET in schizophrenia.
نویسندگان
چکیده
PET relative metabolism was correlated with quantitative EEG in 9 schizophrenic patients. The PET metabolic regions of interest were the frontal lobes, thalamus and basal ganglia, and right and left temporal lobes. Significant positive correlations were seen for the frontal lobes and delta EEG power, and alpha power with subcortical metabolism. The physiologic plausibility of those correlations is discussed with reference to the possible effect of neuroleptic medication.

Preliminary assessment of intrahemispheric QEEG measures in bipolar mood disorders.
OBJECTIVE This study assessed the quantitative electroenchephalographic (QEEG) absolute power and coherence differences between a group of patients with bipolar I mood disorder (BMD I) and a group of patients with schizophrenia. We also examined the correlation between QEEG measures and family history of BMD. METHOD Using the National Institutes of Mental Health (NIMH) Global Rating Scale, we...
متن کاملNegative symptoms in neuroleptic-naïve patients with first-episode psychosis correlate with QEEG parameters.
INTRODUCTION While several studies have shown an association of QEEG band power with negative symptoms in patients with schizophrenia, this has not yet been investigated in a sample with neuroleptic-naïve first-episode patients (NNFE) up to now. From literature we hypothesized delta (0.5-4Hz) and theta (4-8Hz) power to be augmented and alpha (8-12Hz) power to be decreased with increased negativ...

The classical triad of McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS) consists of polyostotic fibrous dysplasia (FD), skin hyperpigmentation (café-au-lait spots), and endocrine dysfunction, frequently seen in females as precocious puberty. Etiology is genetically based and is explained by mosaicism of activating somatic mutations of the alpha-subunit of Gs protein. Clinical presentation is varied and is depend...
متن کاملSome QEEG parameters and gender differences in schizophrenia patients.
BACKGROUND Gender issues are extensively explored in schizophrenia. A mounting body of research evidence suggests that there are gender differences in the age at onset, duration of untreated psychosis and presented psychopathology. In recent years, in order to obtain neurophysiologic explanation for the disturbed behavior and thinking in schizophrenia, numerous studies have been performed focus...
متن کاملEEG characteristics in depression, "negative" and "positive" schizophrena.
OBJECTIVE qEEG investigations present differences in the comparison of schizophrenic patients and healthy examinees, as well as of depressive patients and healthy controls. The comparison of "positive" and "negative" schizophrenia also presents differences in the qEEG parameters. Changes in qEEG are various in these studies, but not always consistent. In this research we wanted to compare "posi...
