Impairment of feedforward inhibition in CA1 region of hippocampus after chronic benzodiazepine treatment.

abstract：:Auditory steady-state responses (ASSRs) are increasingly used in research of neuropsychiatric disorders and for brain-computer interface applications. However, results on attentional modulation of ASSRs are inconclusive. The evaluation of large-scale effects of task-related modulation on ASSRs might give better estima...
