The human brain weighs about 3 pounds and consumes 40% to 60% of blood glucose. This disproportionate amount of energy is used to create electricity in about 100 billion interconnected neurons. Quantitative electroencephalography (qEEG) is a real-time movie of the electrical activity of the preconscious and conscious mind at frequencies from about 1 Hz to 300 Hz. Numerous studies have cross-val...

Over-focus on relatively static measures of brain structure, even when combined with biomedical and neuropsychological, functional methodologies, have proven slow to generate risk factors for serious mental illness. Dynamic methodologies, such as the quantitative electroencephalography employed by Begi et al. (2011) show much diagnostic promise. Their differentiation of schizophrenia from depre...

Symptoms of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) are hypothesized to arise from dysfunction in brain networks linking the limbic system and cortical regions. Alterations in brain functional cortical connectivity in resting-state networks have been detected with functional imaging techniques, but neurophysiologic connectivity measures have not been systematically examined. We used weighted network an...

We conducted this study in an attempt to determine whether the electroencephalographic activity in patients suffering from tinnitus exhibits tinnitus-typical electroencephalography features. Our results indicated a significant increase in the average total power in female tinnitus patients and a significant decrease in average total power in male tinnitus patients. Furthermore, we noted a suppr...

objective: cognitive factors are the important correlates of reading disorder and their impairments are established in children with reading disorder. neurofeedback as an intervention has been reported to be useful in improvement of cognitive deficits. the present study aimed to determine the effectiveness of this treatment on attentiveness and working memory and related electroencephalographic...
