Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Motohiro Okada"
- Motohiro Okada's research spans various aspects of neuroscience and psychiatry, with a notable focus on the mechanisms of auditory responses and the role of neurotransmitters in psychiatric disorders, particularly treatment-resistant schizophrenia.
- Recent studies investigate the impact of abrupt changes in sound on auditory steady-state responses and the dysfunction of NMDA receptors in schizophrenia, aiming to enhance understanding of both sensory processing and neuropharmacology.
- Additional findings explore the paths of synaptic transmission affected by clozapine, weight gain due to antipsychotic treatments, and surgical outcomes related to spinal deformities in geriatric patients, indicating a comprehensive approach to addressing both physiological and psychological health challenges.
