Working memory (WM) deficits are considered a core cognitive dysfunction in schizophrenia. To determine cognitive abnormalities in chronic interictal psychosis (CIP), and to assess whether these abnormalities are distinguishable from those seen in schizophrenia in terms of WM deficits, we used magnetoencephalography during a WM task performed by patients with CIP, nonpsychotic epilepsy, and schizophrenia and by healthy subjects. Multiple Source Beamformer and Brain-Voyager were used for analysis. In both patients with CIP and those with schizophrenia, we found dorsolateral prefrontal hyperactivation and left inferior temporal hypoactivation, as indicated by alpha event-related desynchronization and synchronization, respectively. Patients with schizophrenia also showed alpha2 event-related desynchronization in the mid-prefrontal cortex relative to healthy controls. Direct comparison of patients with CIP and schizophrenia rendered no difference in source-power changes. Our findings indicate similar functional cognitive abnormalities in CIP and schizophrenia in the prefrontal and left temporal cortex, which supports the possibility that these disorders share common underlying pathophysiological mechanisms.
