Role of nitric oxide and related molecules in schizophrenia pathogenesis: biochemical, genetic and clinical aspects.

abstract：:In this paper, we computationally generate hypotheses for dose-finding studies in the context of desynchronizing neuromodulation techniques. Abnormally strong neuronal synchronization is a hallmark of several brain disorders. Coordinated Reset (CR) stimulation is a spatio-temporally patterned stimulation technique tha...
