The dorsal mesial frontal cortex contains the supplementary motor area (SMA) and pre-supplementary (pre-SMA), which play an important role in action cognition. Evidence from cytoarchitectonic, stimulation, functional studies suggests structural divergence between two subregions. However, a microstructural map of these areas obtained representative sample brains stereotaxic reference space is still lacking. In present study we show that comprises microstructurally different brain regions: SMA...

The changes in resting-state functional networks and their correlations with clinical traits remain to be clarified migraine. Here we aim investigate the brain spatio-temporal dynamics of possible migraine.Twenty Four migraine patients without aura 26 healthy controls (HC) were enrolled. Each included subject underwent a EEG echo planar imaging examination. disability was evaluated by Migraine Disability Assessment (MIDAS). After data acquisition, microstates (Ms) combining connectivity (FC)...

Introduction Tasks involving mental practice, relying on the cognitive rehearsal of physical motors or other activities, have been reported to similar patterns brain activity overt execution. In this study, we introduced a novel imagination task called, acupuncture imagery and aimed investigate neural oscillations during imagery. Methods Healthy volunteers were guided watch video real needling in left right KI3 (Taixi point). The subjects then asked perform tasks keep their thoughts three...

: Few studies have examined the effect of rTMS on impaired emotional processing in apathetic Parkinson's disease (PD) patients, which impelled us to use a combination repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) with event-related potentials (ERPs) gain insight into underlying mechanisms. Apathetic and non-apathetic patients diagnosed PD performed facial emotion categorization task, ERP data were collected before after HF-rTMS or sham over right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC)....

Heterogeneous neurological responses of acupuncture between different groups have been proposed by previous studies but rarely studied. The study described here was designed to explore the divergence at Taixi (KI3) on spontaneous activity brain regions and functional connectivity (FC) healthy youth elder with magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). 20 young volunteers elders underwent 10-minute-resting-state fMRI before acupuncture, then for 3 minutes; after withdrawing needles, a second scan 10...

To investigate whether the brain networks changed in patients with acute peripheral herpes zoster (HZ).We reviewed EEG database Jianyang People's Hospital. Patients HZ (n=71) were enrolled from January 2016 to December 2020. Each included subject underwent a ten-minute and 16-channel examination. Five epochs of 10-second data resting-state collected each patient. sex- age-matched healthy controls (HC, n=71) who reported no history neurological or psychiatric disorders visited hospital for...

Early recognition of autoimmune encephalitis (AIE) is often difficult and time-consuming. Understanding how the micro-level (antibodies) macro-level (EEG) couple with each other may help rapidly diagnose appropriately treat AIE. However, limited studies focused on brain oscillations involving micro- macro-interactions in AIE from a neuro-electrophysiological perspective. Here, we investigated network using Graph theoretical analysis resting state EEG.AIE Patients (n = 67) were enrolled June...

Objective To investigate the dynamical brain network changes before and after an absence seizure episode in epilepsy (AE). Methods 21 AE patients with a current high frequency of seizures sex- age-matched health control (HC) who reported no history neurological or psychiatric disorders visited hospital for routine physical examinations were included. Each included subject underwent 2-h 19-channel video EEG examination. For patients, five epochs 10-s data inter-ictal, pre-ictal, post-ictal...

Purpose To investigate the effect of two weeks repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on attention network in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients.Materials and methods Sixty PD patients were randomly divided into equal-sized active- sham-rTMS groups. Executive function was assessed by neuropsychological tests including Trail-Making Test (TMT), word fluency test, digit span, Wisconsin Card Sorting (WCST) Stroop test. The evaluated test (ANT). rTMS (5 Hz) applied over left...

Objective We aimed to investigate the brain network activity during seizures in patients with untreated juvenile absence epilepsy. Methods Thirty-six epilepsy (JAE) a current high frequency of (more than five 2 h EEG examination) were included. Each participant underwent video examination. Five 10 s epochs for inter-ictal, pre-ictal, and post-ictal, 5 ictal states extracted. resting-state each from sex- age-matched healthy control (HC) enrolled. The topological parameters networks calculated...

Objective: The alterations of the functional network (FN) in anti-N-methyl-Daspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis have been recognized by magnetic resonance imaging studies. However, few studies using electroencephalogram (EEG) performed to explore possible FN changes anti-NMDAR encephalitis. In this study, aim was any patients with Methods: Twenty-nine and 29 age- gender-matched healthy controls (HC) were assessed 19-channel EEG examination. For each participant, five 10-second epochs...

Abstract Understanding how function and structure are organized their coupling with clinical traits in individuals autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a primary goal network neuroscience research for ASD. Atypical brain functional networks structures ASD have been reported, but whether these associations show heterogeneous hierarchy modeling adolescents adults remains to be clarified. In this study, 176 adolescent 74 adult participants without medication or comorbidities sex, age matched...

To evaluate the alterations in brain dynamics patients suffering from brainstem or cerebellar infarctions and their potential associations with cognitive function. In this study, 37 were recruited who had acute infarction (CI), 32 (BsI), 40 healthy controls (HC). Every participant resting-state electroencephalogram (EEG) data captured, EEG microstates analyzed. The function was measured by Neuropsychological Cognitive Scale including Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Montreal Assessment...

We investigated emotional processing in apathetic patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) by observing components of event-related potentials (ERPs) early time windows. Forty PD and 21 healthy controls (HCs) were enrolled. The Starkstein Apathy Scale (SAS) was used to divide the into nonapathetic groups. Cognitive function evaluated forward backward Digit Span tests, Trail Making Test (TMT), Word Fluency Test. participants required recognize positive, neutral, negative faces engage an emotion...
