Their EEG was recorded from 128 scalp sites and analysed using individual standardized Low-Resolution Brain Electromagnetic Tomographies (LORETAs) in the N400 time window (400–600 ms). The activation of 1056 voxels was examined in relation to the 3 motivational states. The most active dipoles were grouped in eight regions of interest (ROI), including Occipital, Temporal, Fusiform, Premotor, Frontal, OBF/IF, Parietal, and Limbic areas. The statistical analysis revealed that all motivational imaginary states engaged the right hemisphere more than the left hemisphere. Distinct markers were identified for the three motivational states. Specifically, the right temporal area was more relevant for “Social Play”, the orbitofrontal/inferior frontal cortex for listening to music, and the left premotor cortex for the “Movement” desire.

Reliable EEG interpretation requires artifact removal as the TMS-evoked EEG can contain high-amplitude artifacts. Several methods have been proposed to uncover clean neuronal EEG responses. In practice, determining which method to select for different types of artifacts is often difficult. Here, we used a unified data cleaning framework based on beamforming to improve the algorithm selection and adaptation to the recorded signals. Beamforming properties are well understood, so they can be used to yield customized methods for EEG cleaning based on prior knowledge of the artifacts and the data. The beamforming implementations also cover, but are not limited to, the popular TMS–EEG cleaning methods: independent component analysis (ICA), signal-space projection (SSP), signal-space-projection-source-informed-reconstruction method (SSP–SIR), the source-estimate-utilizing noise-discarding algorithm (SOUND), data-driven Wiener filter (DDWiener), and the multiple-source approach. In addition to these established methods, beamforming provides a flexible way to derive novel artifact suppression algorithms by considering the properties of the recorded data. With simulated and measured TMS–EEG data, we show how to adapt the beamforming-based cleaning to different data and artifact types, namely TMS-evoked muscle artifacts, ocular artifacts, TMS-related peripheral responses, and channel noise. Importantly, beamforming implementations are fast to execute: We demonstrate how the SOUND algorithm becomes orders of magnitudes faster via beamforming. Overall, the beamforming-based spatial filtering framework can greatly enhance the selection, adaptability, and speed of EEG artifact removal.</p>","PeriodicalId":55329,"journal":{"name":"Brain Topography","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140577587","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This includes impacts on mental and physical health, behavioral patterns, and cognitive functions. However, higher levels of trait nostalgia may be linked to potential adverse outcomes, such as increased loneliness, heightened neuroticism, and more intense experiences of grief. The specific electroencephalography (EEG) feature associated with individuals exhibiting trait nostalgia, and how it differs from others, remains an area of uncertainty. To address this, our study employs microstate analysis to investigate the differences in resting-state EEG between individuals with varying levels of trait nostalgia. We assessed trait nostalgia in 63 participants using the Personal Inventory of Nostalgia and collected their resting-state EEG signals with eyes closed. The results of the regression analysis indicate a significant correlation between trait nostalgia and the temporal characteristics of microstates A, B, and C. Further, the occurrence of microstate B was significantly more frequent in the high trait nostalgia group than in the low trait nostalgia group. Independent samples t-test results showed that the transition probability between microstates A and B was significantly higher in the high trait nostalgia group. These results support the hypothesis that trait nostalgia is reflected in the resting state brain activity. Furthermore, they reveal a deeper sensory immersion in nostalgia experiences among individuals with high levels of trait nostalgia, and highlight the critical role of self-referential and autobiographical memory processes in nostalgia.</p>","PeriodicalId":55329,"journal":{"name":"Brain Topography","volume":"29 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140577768","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In contrast, 3T dMRI has relative higher diffusion angular resolution, but lower spatial resolution. Combination of 3T and 7T dMRI, thus, may provide more detailed and accurate information about the voxel-wise fiber orientations to better understand the structural brain connectivity. However, this topic has not yet been thoroughly explored until now. In this study, we explored the feasibility of fusing 3T and 7T dMRI data to extract voxel-wise quantitative parameters at higher spatial resolution. After 3T and 7T dMRI data was preprocessed, respectively, 3T dMRI volumes were coregistered into 7T dMRI space. Then, 7T dMRI data was harmonized to the coregistered 3T dMRI B0 (b = 0) images. Last, harmonized 7T dMRI data was fused with 3T dMRI data according to four fusion rules proposed in this study. We employed high-quality 3T and 7T dMRI datasets (<i>N</i> = 24) from the Human Connectome Project to test our algorithms. The diffusion tensors (DTs) and orientation distribution functions (ODFs) estimated from the 3T-7T fused dMRI volumes were statistically analyzed. More voxels containing multiple fiber populations were found from the fused dMRI data than from 7T dMRI data set. Moreover, extra fiber directions were extracted in temporal brain regions from the fused dMRI data at Otsu’s thresholds of quantitative anisotropy, but could not be extracted from 7T dMRI dataset.

A common approach is to restrict the pattern matching step to local maxima of the global field power (GFP) and to interpolate the microstate fit in between. In this study, we investigate how the anesthetic propofol affects microstate sequence periodicity and predictability, and how these metrics are changed by interpolation. We performed two frequency analyses on microstate sequences, one based on time-lagged mutual information, the other based on Fourier transform methodology, and quantified the effects of interpolation. Resting-state microstate sequences had a 20 Hz frequency peak related to dominant 10 Hz (alpha) rhythms, and the Fourier approach demonstrated that all five microstate classes followed this frequency. The 20 Hz periodicity was reversibly attenuated under moderate propofol sedation, as shown by mutual information and Fourier analysis. Characteristic microstate frequencies could only be observed in non-interpolated microstate sequences and were masked by smoothing effects of interpolation. Information-theoretic analysis revealed faster microstate dynamics and larger entropy rates under propofol, whereas Shannon entropy did not change significantly. In moderate sedation, active information storage decreased for non-interpolated sequences. Signatures of non-equilibrium dynamics were observed in non-interpolated sequences, but no changes were observed between sedation levels. All changes occurred while subjects were able to perform an auditory perception task. In summary, we show that low dose propofol reversibly increases the randomness of microstate sequences and attenuates microstate oscillations without correlation to cognitive task performance.

Here we focus on the analysis of group differences, using simulations seeded on real data from healthy control subjects to compare approaches that derive separate sets of maps within subgroups versus a single set of maps applied uniformly to the entire dataset. In the absence of true group differences in either microstate maps or temporal metrics, we found that using separate subgroup maps resulted in substantially inflated type I error rates. On the other hand, when groups truly differed in their microstate maps, analyses based on a single set of maps confounded topographic effects with differences in other derived metrics. We propose an approach to alleviate both classes of bias, based on a paired analysis of all subgroup maps. We illustrate the qualitative and quantitative impact of these issues in real data by comparing waking versus non-rapid eye movement sleep microstates.

In this report we review recent developments in quantifying microstate sequence complexity, we classify these approaches with regard to different complexity concepts, and we evaluate excess entropy as a yet unexplored quantity in microstate research. We determined the quantities entropy rate, excess entropy, Lempel-Ziv complexity (LZC), and Hurst exponents on Potts model data, a discrete statistical mechanics model with a temperature-controlled phase transition. We then applied the same techniques to EEG microstate sequences from wakefulness and non-REM sleep stages and used first-order Markov surrogate data to determine which time scales contributed to the different complexity measures. We demonstrate that entropy rate and LZC measure the Kolmogorov complexity (randomness) of microstate sequences, whereas excess entropy and Hurst exponents describe statistical complexity which attains its maximum at intermediate levels of randomness. We confirmed the equivalence of entropy rate and LZC when the LZ-76 algorithm is used, a result previously reported for neural spike train analysis (Amigó et al., Neural Comput 16:717-736, https://doi.org/10.1162/089976604322860677 , 2004). Surrogate data analyses prove that entropy-based quantities and LZC focus on short-range temporal correlations, whereas Hurst exponents include short and long time scales. Sleep data analysis reveals that deeper sleep stages are accompanied by a decrease in Kolmogorov complexity and an increase in statistical complexity. Microstate jump sequences, where duplicate states have been removed, show higher randomness, lower statistical complexity, and no long-range correlations. Regarding the practical use of these methods, we suggest that LZC can be used as an efficient entropy rate estimator that avoids the estimation of joint entropies, whereas entropy rate estimation via joint entropies has the advantage of providing excess entropy as the second parameter of the same linear fit.

Very short time scales are assessed with Markov tests, intermediate time scales by the entropy rate and long time scales by a spectral analysis which identifies characteristic microstate frequencies. During the descent from wakefulness to sleep stage N3, we find that the increasing mean microstate duration is a gradual phenomenon explained by a continuous slowing of microstate dynamics as described by the relaxation time of the transition probability matrix. The finite entropy rate, which considers longer microstate histories, shows that microstate sequences become more predictable (less random) with decreasing vigilance level. Accordingly, the Markov property is absent in wakefulness but in sleep stage N3, 10/19 subjects have microstate sequences compatible with a second-order Markov process. A spectral microstate analysis is performed by comparing the time-lagged mutual information coefficients of microstate sequences with the autocorrelation function of the underlying EEG.
