In this review we aim to systematize the evidence on changes in schizophrenic brain functional connectivity assessed with EEG coherence and phase synchrony analyses. Main findings on EEG coherence in schizophrenic patients at rest and during different activation tasks are described. The studies point to specific patterns of cortical connectivity in schizophrenia, specifically, to the disturbance of certain paths of integration related to symptoms and cognitive dysfunction. These data are in line with the disconnection hypothesis of the disorder.

Prolactin in sleep and EEG regulation: new mechanisms and sleep-related brain targets complement classical data.

The role of prolactin in sleep regulation has been the subject of extensive research over the past 50 years, resulting in the identification of multiple, disparate functions for the hormone. Prolactin demonstrated a characteristic circadian release pattern with elevation during dark and diminution during light. High prolactin levels were linked to non-rapid eye movement sleep and electroencephalogram delta activity in humans.

The monosynaptic cortico-motoneuronal connections suggest the possibility of individual motor units (MUs) receiving independent commands from motor cortex. However, previous studies that used corticomuscular coherence (CMC) between electroencephalogram (EEG) signals and electromyogram (EMG) signals have not directly explored the corticospinal functionality at the single motoneuron level. The objective of this study is to find out whether synchronous activities exist between the motor cortex and individual MUs.

Background: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) shares pathological and genetic underpinnings with frontotemporal dementia (FTD). ALS manifests with diverse symptoms, including progressive neuro-motor degeneration, muscle weakness, but also cognitive-behavioural changes in up to half of the cases. Resting-state EEG measures, particularly spectral power and functional connectivity, have been instrumental for discerning abnormal motor and cognitive network function in ALS [1]-[3].

Curiosity is a powerful motivator of information-seeking behavior. People seek not only positive, but also aversive social information about others. However, whether people also seek unfavorable social information about themselves, as well as the neural mechanisms that may drive such seemingly counterintuitive behavior remain unclear.

The human brain continuously integrates information across its two hemispheres to construct a coherent representation of the perceptual world. Characterizing how visual information is represented in each hemisphere over time is crucial for understanding how hemispheric transfer contributes to perception. Here, we investigated information processing within each hemisphere over time and the degree to which it is distinct or duplicated across hemispheres.
