Scientists probe brain activity to unlock autism catatonia mystery
NCT ID NCT06016764
Summary
This study explored whether brain scans and a non-invasive brain stimulation technique could help identify biological markers for catatonia in people with autism. Researchers worked with 26 participants aged 15-40 who have autism and catatonia symptoms. They used MRI scans to guide magnetic stimulation to the brain's motor area, measuring brain activity to see if it connects to catatonia and social challenges.
