Abstract
Electroencephalography (EEG) is a widely used tool in neuropsychiatry research. The most used measurements in EEG are the amplitude and latency of the cortical electrophysiological activity in response to stimulus, known as evoked potentials. Besides potentials, time/frequency analysis is also used to obtain information on global fluctuations of the recordings, which evoked potentials do not provide. Time/frequency analysis results in different values known as derived measures. In this work, a brief introduction to evoked potentials and time/frequency analyses in schizophrenia is given, focusing on P300, noise power, and spectral entropy. Finally, a detailed description is given on how to obtain EEG recordings, evoked potentials, and derived measures.

Abstract
Metacognition is the process of thinking about one's own mental states. It involves a range of faculties that allow an individual to integrate information and form understanding of self and others, and use this understanding to respond to life challenges. Clinical insight is the awareness of one's mental illness, its consequences, and the need for treatment. Persons with psychotic disorders show impaired metacognition and insight, but the neurobiological bases for these impairments are not well characterized. We hypothesized that metacognition and insight may depend on capacity of neural circuits to synchronize at gamma frequencies, as well as the integrity of underlying cognitive processes. In order to test these hypotheses, 17 adults with early phase psychosis were evaluated. Metacognition was assessed with the Metacognition Assessment Scale-Abbreviated, and insight was assessed with the Scale of Unawareness of Illness-Abbreviated. The auditory steady state response (ASSR) to gamma range stimulation (40 Hz) was used as an index of neural synchronization. Cognitive function was assessed using the Brief Assessment of Cognition in Schizophrenia. Increases in ASSR power were associated with poorer metacognition and insight. Higher cognitive performance was associated with higher levels of metacognitive function and insight. These findings suggest that altered neural synchronization and constituent cognitive processes affect both metacognition and insight in early phase psychosis and may offer targets for both pharmacological and psychotherapeutic interventions.

The P300 event-related potential in bipolar disorder: A systematic review and meta-analysis. J Affect Disord 2019; 256:234-249.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neurophysiology including P300, that is a typical index of event-related potential, may be potential biomarkers for bipolar disorder (BD) and it can be useful towards elucidating the pathophysiology of BD. However, previous findings from P300 studies were inconsistent due to the heterogeneity of research methods, which make it difficult to understand the neurobiological significance of them. The aim of this study is to conduct a meta-analysis on P300 in patients with BD. METHOD A literature search was conducted using PubMed to identify studies that compared P300 event-related potential between patients with BD and healthy controls (HCs). We analyzed P300 indices such as amplitude and latency of P3a and P3b in auditory or visual paradigms. Further, moderator analyses were conducted to investigate the influence of patient characteristics (i.e. history of psychosis, diagnostic subcategories [BD-I/BD-II], and phase of illness [euthymic, manic, or depressive]) on P300 indices. RESULT Out of 124 initial records, we included 30 articles (BD: N = 1331; HCs: N = 1818). Patients with BD showed reduced P3a and P3b amplitude in both paradigms and delayed P3b latency in auditory paradigms compared to HCs. There was no influence on the history of psychosis, diagnostic subcategories, or phase of illness on P300 indices. LIMITATION The difference in medication use was difficult to control and it may affect the results. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis provides evidence for P300 abnormalities in patients with BD compared to HCs. Our results suggest that P300 may be trait markers rather than state markers in this illness.

EEG dissociation induced by muscarinic receptor antagonists: Coherent 40 Hz oscillations in a background of slow waves and spindles. Behav Brain Res 2018; 359:28-37. [PMID: 30321557 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbr.2018.10.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2018] [Revised: 10/03/2018] [Accepted: 10/10/2018] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
Mesopontine and basal forebrain cholinergic neurons are involved in the control of behavioral states and cognitive functions. Animals treated with cholinergic muscarinic receptor antagonists display a dissociated state characterized by behavioral wakefulness (W) associated with high amplitude slow oscillations and spindles in the electroencephalogram (EEG), similar to those that occur during non-REM (NREM) sleep. Oscillations in the gamma frequency band (≈ 40 Hz) of the EEG also play a critical role during W and cognition. Hence, the present study was conducted to determine the effect of muscarinic antagonists on the EEG gamma band power and coherence. Five cats were implanted with electrodes in different cortices to monitor the EEG. The effects of atropine and scopolamine on power and coherence within the low gamma frequency band (30-45 Hz) from pairs of EEG recordings were analyzed and compared to gamma activity during sleep and W. Muscarinic antagonists induced a NREM sleep-like EEG profile that was accompanied by a large increase in gamma power and coherence. The values of gamma coherence were similar to that occurring during alert W (AW), and greater than in quiet W, NREM and REM sleep. We conclude that under atropine or scopolamine, functional interactions between cortical areas in the gamma frequency band remain high, as they are during AW. This significant functional connectivity at high frequency may explain why the animals remain awake in spite of the presence of slow waves and spindles.

Abstract
Cognitive processes are carried out during wakefulness by means of extensive interactions between cortical and subcortical areas. In psychiatric conditions, such as psychosis, these processes are altered. Interestingly, REM sleep where most dreams occurs, shares electrophysiological, pharmacological, and neurochemical features with psychosis. Because of this fact, REM sleep is considered a natural model of psychosis. Ketamine is a non-competitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist that at sub-anesthetic dose induces psychotomimetic-like effects in humans and animals, and is employed as a pharmacological model of psychosis. Oscillations in the gamma frequency band of the electroencephalogram (EEG), mainly at about 40 Hz, have been involved in cognitive functions. Hence, the present study was conducted to analyze the EEG low gamma (30-45 Hz) band power and coherence of the cat, in natural (REM sleep) and pharmacological (sub-anesthetic doses of ketamine) models of psychosis. These results were compared with the gamma activity during alert (AW) and quiet wakefulness (QW), as well as during non-REM (NREM) sleep. Five cats were chronically prepared for polysomnographic recordings, with electrodes in different cortical areas. Basal recordings were obtained and ketamine (5, 10, and 15 mg/kg, i.m.) was administrated. Gamma activity (power and coherence) was analyzed in the abovementioned conditions. Compared to wakefulness and NREM sleep, following ketamine administration gamma coherence decreased among all cortical regions studied; the same coherence profile was observed during REM sleep. On the contrary, gamma power was relatively high under ketamine, and similar to QW and REM sleep. We conclude that functional interactions between cortical areas in the gamma frequency band decrease in both experimental models of psychosis. This uncoupling of gamma frequency activity may be involved in the cognitive features shared by dreaming and psychosis.
