Stress, epileptiform symptoms in schizophrenia and neural information transmission by Simek Jakub, Bob Petr, Pec Ondrej, Chladek Jan, Hajny Jakub, Raboch Jiri

“…Several findings indicate that stress may influence epileptiform discharges manifesting in temporal-limbic areas, which may become a potential trigger of psychosis that may manifest without neurologically diagnosed epilepsy. Some findings suggest that measures assessing levels of inter-hemispheric information connection may reveal the spread of subclinical epileptiform neural activity associated with psychotic and seizure-like symptoms. …”

Reward recalibrates rule representations in human amygdala and hippocampus intracranial recordings by Luis Manssuer, Qiong Ding, Yashu Feng, Ruoqi Yang, Wei Liu, Bomin Sun, Shikun Zhan, Valerie Voon

“…Here, we demonstrate the importance of the amygdala and hippocampus by recording local field potentials directly from these regions intracranially in human epilepsy patients. Reward signals were coded in the high frequency gamma activity (HFG; 60-250 Hz) of both regions and synchronised via low frequency (3-5 Hz) phase-locking only after a shift when patients did not already know the rule and it signalled to stop shifting (“Win-Stay”). …”
