| Impaired differentiation | Impaired differentiation | |
| Dendrite morphology | Reduced density | Reduced density |
| Abnormal morphology | Abnormal morphology | |
| Electrophysiology | EEG abnormalities EEE coherence abnormalities |
EEG abnormalities EEG coherence abnormalities impaired long-term potentiation |
