Characteristics and research progress of resting-state EEG microstates in patients with schizophrenia / 四川精神卫生

ABSTRACT

The purpose of this article is to identify the characteristics and research progress of resting-state EEG microstates in patients with schizophrenia， in order to provide references for clinical research of schizophrenia from the perspective of neuroelectrophysiology. In September 2022， literature was retrieved from CNKI， Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform and PubMed database， and 27 studies meeting the requirements were finally included. Previous studies have demonstrated that patients with schizophrenia show increased presence of microstate class C and decreased presence of microstate class D in resting-state recordings， and the two commonly EEG microstate classes have been suggested as a potential endophenotype for schizophrenia. Although the correlation between psychiatric symptoms and resting-state EEG microstate abnormalities in patients with schizophrenia remains unclear， the altered resting-state EEG microstates in patients before and after treatment have undoubtedly validated its clinical significance.
