Schizophrenia patients with, and without first rank symptoms (FRS) compared with controls.
Dense array (256 sensor) EEG Gamma power, serum BDNF levels and ‘self monitoring’ assessed.
Increased gamma power in right hemispheric regions in patients with FRS found.
Lower BDNF and ‘self monitoring’ in patients with FRS found.
Schizophrenia patients with FRS hypothesized as a distinct developmental sub group.
