Catatonia isn't ready for a unified theory
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 25 (5):579-580 (2002)
| Abstract | Northoff's target article presents a unifying theory of the pathophysiology of catatonia, as compared to Parkinson's disease. We address two arguments in particular that do not appear justified by available evidence: (1) The physiological basis of catatonia is the breakdown of right hemisphere prefrontal-parietal cortical connectivity, and (2) Dysfunction in this system results in specific deficits in termination of action. | |||||||||
