Heightened excitability and impaired Inhibition in methamphetamine users: a pilot study of neurophysiological correlates of psychological symptoms
Increased cortical excitability and decreased inhibitory control are linked to METH usage, and these factors may be underlying psychiatric symptoms. TMS-derived indices show potential as biomarkers for neurophysiological monitoring and targeted interventions in methamphetamine use disorder.
