Meta-analysis of the P300 and P50 waveforms in schizophrenia

BRAMON, E·2004·Schizophrenia Research

Abstract

Objective To determine whether patients with schizophrenia have abnormalities in the P300 and P50 waves and to quantify the magnitude of any differences from controls.Method We conducted a systematic search for articles published between January 1994 and August 2003 that reported P50 or P300 measures in schizophrenic patients and controls. Metaregression analyses were performed using a random effects model. The pooled standardised effect size (PSES) was calculated as the difference between the means of the two groups divided by the common standard deviation.Results We identified 46 studies suitable for analysis of P300 measures, including 1443 patients and 1251 controls. There were 20 P50 studies including 421 patients and 401 controls. The PSES for the P300 amplitude was 0.85 (95% CI: 0.65 to 1.05; p<0.001), and for the P300 latency was -0.57 (95% CI: -0.75 to -0.38; p<0.001). The PSES of the P50 ratio was -1.56 (95% CI: -2.05 to -1.06; p<0.001). There were no significant differences between patients and controls in P50 latency. Across-study variations in filters, task difficulty, antipsychotic medication and duration of illness did not influence the PSES significantly.Conclusions This meta-analysis confirms the existence of ERP deficits in schizophrenia. The magnitude of these deficits is similar to the most robust findings reported in neuroimaging and neuropsychology in schizophrenia.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
