Cortical inhibitory and excitatory function in drug-naive generalized anxiety disorder

Cortical inhibitory and excitatory function in drug-naive generalized anxiety disorder

Background: A growing body of evidence suggests that deficits in GABAergic inhibitory and glutamatergic excitatory neurotransmission may be involved in the core pathophysiology of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), a disease characterized by pathological anxious worrying. The aim of the present stu...
