Project description:We aimed to develop a machine learning (ML) classifier to detect and compare major psychiatric disorders using electroencephalography (EEG). We retrospectively collected data from medical records, intelligence quotient (IQ) scores from psychological assessments, and quantitative EEG (QEEG) at resting-state assessments from 945 subjects [850 patients with major psychiatric disorders (six large-categorical and nine specific disorders) and 95 healthy controls (HCs)]. A combination of QEEG parameters including power spectrum density (PSD) and functional connectivity (FC) at frequency bands was used to establish models for the binary classification between patients with each disorder and HCs. The support vector machine, random forest, and elastic net ML methods were applied, and prediction performances were compared. The elastic net model with IQ adjustment showed the highest accuracy. The best feature combinations and classification accuracies for discrimination between patients and HCs with adjusted IQ were as follows: schizophrenia = alpha PSD, 93.83%; trauma and stress-related disorders = beta FC, 91.21%; anxiety disorders = whole band PSD, 91.03%; mood disorders = theta FC, 89.26%; addictive disorders = theta PSD, 85.66%; and obsessive-compulsive disorder = gamma FC, 74.52%. Our findings suggest that ML in EEG may predict major psychiatric disorders and provide an objective index of psychiatric disorders.

Project description:The understanding and treatment of psychiatric disorders, which are known to be neurobiologically and clinically heterogeneous, could benefit from the data-driven identification of disease subtypes. Here, we report the identification of two clinically relevant subtypes of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and major depressive disorder (MDD) on the basis of robust and distinct functional connectivity patterns, prominently within the frontoparietal control network and the default mode network. We identified the disease subtypes by analysing, via unsupervised and supervised machine learning, the power-envelope-based connectivity of signals reconstructed from high-density resting-state electroencephalography in four datasets of patients with PTSD and MDD, and show that the subtypes are transferable across independent datasets recorded under different conditions. The subtype whose functional connectivity differed most from those of healthy controls was less responsive to psychotherapy treatment for PTSD and failed to respond to an antidepressant medication for MDD. By contrast, both subtypes responded equally well to two different forms of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation therapy for MDD. Our data-driven approach may constitute a generalizable solution for connectome-based diagnosis.

Project description:IntroductionThe purpose of this study was to characterize resting-state cortical networks in chronic stroke survivors using electroencephalography (EEG).MethodsElectroencephalography data were collected from 14 chronic stroke and 11 neurologically intact participants while they were in a relaxed, resting state. EEG power was normalized to reduce bias and used as an indicator of network activity. Correlations of orthogonalized EEG activity were used as a measure of functional connectivity between cortical regions.ResultsWe found reduced cortical activity and connectivity in the alpha (p < .05; p = .05) and beta (p < .05; p = .03) bands after stroke while connectivity in the gamma (p = .031) band increased. Asymmetries, driven by a reduction in the lesioned hemisphere, were also noted in cortical activity (p = .001) after stroke.ConclusionThese findings suggest that stroke lesions cause a network alteration to more local (higher frequency), asymmetric networks. Understanding changes in cortical networks after stroke could be combined with controllability models to identify (and target) alternate brain network states that reduce functional impairment.

Project description:ObjectivesNumerous task-based functional magnetic resonance imaging studies indicate the presence of compensatory functional improvement in patients with congenital cataracts. However, there is neuroimaging evidence that shows decreased sensory perception or cognition information processing related to visual dysfunction, which favors a general loss hypothesis. This study explored the functional connectivity between visual and other networks in children with congenital cataracts using resting state electroencephalography.MethodsTwenty-one children with congenital cataracts (age: 8.02 ± 2.03 years) and thirty-five sex- and age-matched normal sighted controls were enrolled to investigate functional connectivity between the visual cortex and the default mode network, the salience network, and the cerebellum network during resting state electroencephalography (eyes closed) recordings.ResultThe congenital cataract group was less active, than the control group, in the occipital, temporal, frontal and limbic lobes in the theta, alpha, beta1 and beta2 frequency bands. Additionally, there was reduced alpha-band connectivity between the visual and somatosensory cortices and between regions of the frontal and parietal cortices associated with cognitive and attentive control.ConclusionThe results indicate abnormalities in sensory, cognition, motion and execution functional connectivity across the developing brains of children with congenital cataracts when compared with normal controls. Reduced frontal alpha activity and alpha-band connectivity between the visual cortex and salience network might reflect attenuated inhibitory information flow, leading to higher attentional states, which could contribute to adaptation of environmental change in this group of patients.

Project description:Symptoms of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) are hypothesized to arise from dysfunction in brain networks linking the limbic system and cortical regions. Alterations in brain functional cortical connectivity in resting-state networks have been detected with functional imaging techniques, but neurophysiologic connectivity measures have not been systematically examined. We used weighted network analysis to examine resting state functional connectivity as measured by quantitative electroencephalographic (qEEG) coherence in 121 unmedicated subjects with MDD and 37 healthy controls. Subjects with MDD had significantly higher overall coherence as compared to controls in the delta (0.5-4 Hz), theta (4-8 Hz), alpha (8-12 Hz), and beta (12-20 Hz) frequency bands. The frontopolar region contained the greatest number of "hub nodes" (surface recording locations) with high connectivity. MDD subjects expressed higher theta and alpha coherence primarily in longer distance connections between frontopolar and temporal or parietooccipital regions, and higher beta coherence primarily in connections within and between electrodes overlying the dorsolateral prefrontal cortical (DLPFC) or temporal regions. Nearest centroid analysis indicated that MDD subjects were best characterized by six alpha band connections primarily involving the prefrontal region. The present findings indicate a loss of selectivity in resting functional connectivity in MDD. The overall greater coherence observed in depressed subjects establishes a new context for the interpretation of previous studies showing differences in frontal alpha power and synchrony between subjects with MDD and normal controls. These results can inform the development of qEEG state and trait biomarkers for MDD.

Project description:Schizophrenia is associated with aberrations in the Default Mode Network (DMN), but the clinical implications remain unclear. We applied data-driven, unsupervised machine learning based on resting-state electroencephalography (rsEEG) functional connectivity within the DMN to cluster antipsychotic-naïve patients with first-episode schizophrenia. The identified clusters were investigated with respect to psychopathological profile and cognitive deficits. Thirty-seven antipsychotic-naïve, first-episode patients with schizophrenia (mean age 24.4 (5.4); 59.5% males) and 97 matched healthy controls (mean age 24.0 (5.1); 52.6% males) underwent assessments of rsEEG, psychopathology, and cognition. Source-localized, frequency-dependent functional connectivity was estimated using Phase Lag Index (PLI). The DMN-PLI was factorized for each frequency band using principal component analysis. Clusters of patients were identified using a Gaussian mixture model and neurocognitive and psychopathological profiles of identified clusters were explored. We identified two clusters of patients based on the theta band (4-8 Hz), and two clusters based on the beta band (12-30 Hz). Baseline psychopathology could predict theta clusters with an accuracy of 69.4% (p = 0.003), primarily driven by negative symptoms. Five a priori selected cognitive functions conjointly predicted the beta clusters with an accuracy of 63.6% (p = 0.034). The two beta clusters displayed higher and lower DMN connectivity, respectively, compared to healthy controls. In conclusion, the functional connectivity within the DMN provides a novel, data-driven means to stratify patients into clinically relevant clusters. The results support the notion of biological subgroups in schizophrenia and endorse the application of data-driven methods to recognize pathophysiological patterns at earliest stage of this syndrome.

Project description:Studies comparing bipolar disorder (BD) and major depressive disorder (MDD) are scarce, and the neuropathology of these disorders is poorly understood. This study investigated source-level cortical functional networks using resting-state electroencephalography (EEG) in patients with BD and MDD. EEG was recorded in 35 patients with BD, 39 patients with MDD, and 42 healthy controls (HCs). Graph theory-based source-level weighted functional networks were assessed via strength, clustering coefficient (CC), and path length (PL) in six frequency bands. At the global level, patients with BD and MDD showed higher strength and CC, and lower PL in the high beta band, compared to HCs. At the nodal level, compared to HCs, patients with BD showed higher high beta band nodal CCs in the right precuneus, left isthmus cingulate, bilateral paracentral, and left superior frontal; however, patients with MDD showed higher nodal CC only in the right precuneus compared to HCs. Although both MDD and BD patients had similar global level network changes, they had different nodal level network changes compared to HCs. Our findings might suggest more altered cortical functional network in patients with BD than in those with MDD.

Project description:Background: Biomarkers for psychiatric disorders in children and adolescents are urgently needed. This cross-sectional pilot study investigated quantitative electroencephalogram (qEEG), a promising intermediate biomarker, in pediatric patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) compared with healthy controls (HCs). We hypothesized that youth with MDD would have increased coherence (connectivity) and absolute alpha power in the frontal cortex compared with HC. Methods: qEEG was obtained in adolescents aged 14-17 years with MDD (n?=?25) and age- and gender-matched HCs (n?=?14). The primary outcome was overall coherence on qEEG in the four frequency bands (alpha, beta, theta, and delta). Other outcomes included frontal-only coherence, overall and frontal-only qEEG power, and clinician-rated measures of anhedonia and anxiety. Results: Average coherence in the theta band was significantly lower in MDD patients versus HCs, and also lower in frontal cortex among MDD patients. Seven node pairs were significantly different or trending toward significance between MDD and HC; all had lower coherence in MDD patients. Average frontal delta power was significantly higher in MDD versus HCs. Conclusions: Brain connectivity measured by qEEG differs significantly between adolescents with MDD and HCs. Compared with HCs, youth with MDD showed decreased connectivity, yet no differences in power in any frequency bands. In the frontal cortex, youth with MDD showed decreased resting connectivity in the alpha and theta frequency bands. Impaired development of a resting-state brain network (e.g., default mode network) in adolescents with MDD may represent an intermediate phenotype that can be assessed with qEEG.

Project description:Currently, machine-learning algorithms have been considered the most promising approach to reach a clinical diagnosis at the individual level. This study aimed to investigate whether the whole-brain resting-state functional connectivity (RSFC) metrics combined with machine-learning algorithms could be used to identify essential tremor (ET) patients from healthy controls (HCs) and further revealed ET-related brain network pathogenesis to establish the potential diagnostic biomarkers. The RSFC metrics obtained from 127 ET patients and 120 HCs were used as input features, then the Mann-Whitney U test and the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) methods were applied to reduce feature dimensionality. Four machine-learning algorithms were adopted to identify ET from HCs. The accuracy, sensitivity, specificity and the area under the curve (AUC) were used to evaluate the classification performances. The support vector machine, gradient boosting decision tree, random forest and Gaussian naïve Bayes algorithms could achieve good classification performances with accuracy at 82.8%, 79.4%, 78.9% and 72.4%, respectively. The most discriminative features were primarily located in the cerebello-thalamo-motor and non-motor circuits. Correlation analysis showed that two RSFC features were positively correlated with tremor frequency and four RSFC features were negatively correlated with tremor severity. The present study demonstrated that combining the RSFC matrices with multiple machine-learning algorithms could not only achieve high classification accuracy for discriminating ET patients from HCs but also help us to reveal the potential brain network pathogenesis in ET.

Project description:AbstractChronic pain is a major healthcare issue posing a large burden on individuals and society. Converging lines of evidence indicate that chronic pain is associated with substantial changes of brain structure and function. However, it remains unclear which neuronal measures relate to changes of clinical parameters over time and could thus monitor chronic pain and treatment responses. We therefore performed a longitudinal study in which we assessed clinical characteristics and resting-state electroencephalography data of 41 patients with chronic pain before and 6 months after interdisciplinary multimodal pain therapy. We specifically assessed electroencephalography measures that have previously been shown to differ between patients with chronic pain and healthy people. These included the dominant peak frequency; the amplitudes of neuronal oscillations at theta, alpha, beta, and gamma frequencies; as well as graph theory-based measures of brain network organization. The results show that pain intensity, pain-related disability, and depression were significantly improved after interdisciplinary multimodal pain therapy. Bayesian hypothesis testing indicated that these clinical changes were not related to changes of the dominant peak frequency or amplitudes of oscillations at any frequency band. Clinical changes were, however, associated with an increase in global network efficiency at theta frequencies. Thus, changes in chronic pain might be reflected by global network changes in the theta band. These longitudinal insights further the understanding of the brain mechanisms of chronic pain. Beyond, they might help to identify biomarkers for the monitoring of chronic pain.
