Hyperactivation of left inferior parietal lobule and left temporal gyri shortens resting EEG microstate in schizophrenia

The momentary spatial configuration of the brain electric field at the scalp reflects quasi-stable “functional microstates” caused by activity of different intracranial generators. There is paucity in literature on the intracranial generators of resting state EEG microstate alterations in stable patients with schizophrenia. The present study aimed to investigate resting state microstate alter ations and their neural generators in patients with schizophrenia and their first-degree relatives as compared to healthy controls in an attempt to establish state and trait marker.
