Abnormalities of auditory P300 cortical current density in patients with schizophrenia using high density recording.
International Journal of Psychophysiology(2003)
摘要
While P300 current density analysis has been performed in schizophrenic patients, the event-related potential data have never been obtained using a high density recording, nor have their cortical images been well demonstrated. In this study, the auditory P300 elicited by an oddball paradigm was recorded using a high density recording system of 128 channels. Thirteen male patients who met DSM-IV criteria for schizophrenia were compared with 20 healthy male controls. The cortical current density analysis of low resolution electromagnetic tomography (LORETA) was applied to the P300 component, and this resulted in the values of 6222 current density points over the surface of a cortex model. The inter-group difference of P300 current density was assessed using a point-by-point comparison by t-test. While the normal controls demonstrated the cortical activation of bilateral frontal, temporal and parietal cortex during the oddball paradigm, visual inspection suggested that in the schizophrenic patients these areas were less activated. The inter-group significance of P300 current density was dominant over the left hemisphere, and particularly over the left prefrontal area. It is concluded that the LORETA current density analysis localizes the neural activity from the cortical fronto-temporo-parietal network as the neural substrates of the scalp recorded P300. The dysfunction of such a network, especially over the left hemisphere, possibly subserves the scalp recorded P300 abnormality in schizophrenia.
