Spencer KM, Salisbury DF, Shenton ME, McCarley RW Biol. Psychiatry 2008 Sep;64(5):369-75 PMID: 18400208 Abstract BACKGROUND: In chronic schizophrenia and chronic bipolar disorder, gamma band (30-100 Hz) auditory steady-state electroencephalogram responses (ASSRs) are reduced in power and phase locking, likely reflecting neural circuit dysfunction. Here we examined whether gamma ASSR… read more →

Spencer KM, Niznikiewicz MA, Shenton ME, McCarley RW Biol. Psychiatry 2008 Apr;63(8):744-7 PMID: 18083143 Abstract BACKGROUND: The early visual-evoked gamma oscillation (VGO) elicited by Gestalt stimuli is reduced in schizophrenia patients compared with healthy individuals, but it is unknown whether this effect is specific to these particular stimuli and task.… read more →
Nakamura M, Nestor PG, Levitt JJ, Cohen AS, Kawashima T, Shenton ME, McCarley RW Brain 2008 Jan;131(Pt 1):180-95 PMID: 18056163 Abstract Orbitofrontal Cortex (OFC) structural abnormality in schizophrenia has not been well characterized, probably due to marked anatomical variability and lack of consistent definitions. We previously reported OFC sulcogyral pattern… read more →
