Frontotemporal lobar degeneration changes neuronal beta-frequency dynamics during the mismatch negativity response by Alistair Perry, Laura E. Hughes, Natalie E. Adams, Michelle Naessens, Niels A. Kloosterman, Matthew A. Rouse, Alexander G. Murley, Duncan Street, P. Simon Jones, James B. Rowe

“…Across bvFTD and PSP groups, the beta response to deviant stimuli (relative to standard stimuli) correlated with clinical severity, but not with atrophy of the prefrontal source region. These findings confirm the proposed importance of higher-order cortical regions, and their beta-power generators, in sensory change detection and context-updating during oddball paradigms. …”
