Objective
Altered cortical connectivity and plasticity seems to be asymmetrical between the hemispheres in patients with schizophrenia (SCZ). We evaluated long-term potentiation (LTP) in parietal-frontal circuits of both hemispheres using a cortico-cortical Paired Associative Stimulation (cc-PAS) protocol testing the rules of Hebbian-like spike timing dependent plasticity (SPTD).Methods
12 SCZ and 12 healthy subjects (HS) underwent a cc-PAS protocol to activate, by means of paired pulses of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), the short-latency connection between posterior parietal cortex (PPC) and primary motor cortex (M1) of both hemispheres. Motor-evoked potentials (MEPs) were collected to assess the time course of the after effects of cc-PAS protocol measuring MEP amplitude as index of cortico-cortical associative plasticity.Results
While HS showed a similar time course of LTP-like plasticity in the two hemispheres, SCZ revealed a weaker late-LTP-like plasticity in the left compared to the right hemisphere after cc-PAS protocol.Conclusions
SCZ failed to show the typical long-lasting increase of M1 excitability observed after cc-PAS protocol in both hemispheres, with a greater reduction in the left one.Significance
Our findings provide novel neurophysiological evidence for an asymmetric impairment of the left parietal-frontal network in SCZ patients. 相似文献2.

Objectives
To assess the contralesional connectivity between the posterior parietal cortex (PPC) and the motor cortex (M1) in stroke patients, and to probe putative relationships with spatial neglect and motor impairment.Methods
In 12 right-side stroke patients and 12 age-matched healthy controls, we used paired-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation to assess the contralesional connectivity between three left-side PPC sites (the anterior intraparietal sulcus (aIPS), the posterior intraparietal sulcus and the superior parieto-occipital cortex (SPOC)) and M1. The interstimulus interval (ISI) was set to 4 or 6 ms.Results
Although there were no differences between the stroke patient group and the controls, a subgroup analysis showed that stimulation over the SPOC with an ISI of 6 ms facilitated motor-evoked potential responses in patients with neglect (and especially those with severe peripersonal neglect), relative to non-neglect patients. With an ISI of 4 ms, the aIPS exerted an inhibitory influence on M1 in all subjects. The severity of motor impairment was not associated with PPC-M1 connectivity.Conclusions
aIPS-M1 connectivity seems to be unaffected in stroke patients, whereas connectivity from the most posterior parts of the parietal cortex depends on the patient’s neglect status.Significance
These results provide insight into post-stroke changes in contralesional PPC-M1 connectivity. 相似文献3.

Objective
Although accelerated repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) designs seem to be able to alleviate mood over a relatively short period of time, no studies yet examined the cellular effects on neurochemicals with regard to working mechanisms, safety and neural integrity.Methods
Eighteen right-handed antidepressant-free unipolar treatment resistant depressed (TRD) patients participated in this sham-controlled accelerated high frequency (aHF)-rTMS 1H MR spectroscopy study applied to the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC). Baseline measurements were compared to eighteen age- and gender-matched healthy controls. We explicitly focused on neurochemical concentrations in the bilateral DLPFC and rostral anterior cingulate cortex (rACC).Results
Compared to healthy individuals, TRD patients displayed significantly lower baseline glutamatergic (sum absolute concentrations glutamate and glutamine) concentrations in the left DLPFC. aHF-rTMS does not significantly alter neurochemical concentrations in the three predefined brain regions. Clinical improvement was related to significant GABA concentration increases in the left DLPFC.Conclusions
Accelerated HF-rTMS treatment did not affect neural integrity in the examined regions. The observed GABA concentration increases suggest that the immediate therapeutic effects of aHF-rTMS could be mediated through a locally increased GABAergic inhibitory neurotransmission.Significance
Although more statistical power is needed for reaching firm conclusions, aHF-rTMS does not appear to negatively influence neural integrity. 相似文献4.

Objectives
To describe the hippocampal stereo-electroencephalogram during sleep according to sleep stages (including N2 sleep) and cycles, together with the hippocampal spindles.Methods
All patients with drug-resistant focal epilepsy undergoing intra-hippocampal implantation between August 2012 and June 2013 at Nancy University Hospital were screened. Six patients with explored hippocampus devoid of pathological features were analyzed. During one night, we identified continuous periods of successive N2, N3 and REM sleep for two full cycles. We performed a spectral analysis of the hippocampal signal for each labeled sleep period.Results
N2, N3 and REM sleeps were individualized according to their spectral powers, for each frequency band and sleep cycle. Hippocampal spindles showed dynamic intrinsic properties, the 11.5–16 Hz frequency band being mainly dominant, whereas the 9–11.5 Hz frequency band heightening during the beginning and the end of the transient. For N3 and REM sleep stages, the power of the hippocampal signal was significantly decreased between the first and the second sleep cycle.Conclusion
Distinct N2 sleep, fast spindles and homeostatic profile are all common properties shared by hippocampus and cortex during sleep.Significance
The close functional link between hippocampus and cortex may have various sleep-related substrates. 相似文献5.

Objective
Prolongation of the QT interval, i.e., measure of the time between the start of the Q wave and the end of the T wave, is a precursor to fatal cardiac arrhythmias commonly observed in individuals infected with the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), and is related to dysregulation of the autonomic nervous system. We investigated the relationship between QT interval length and resting state functional connectivity (rsFC) of the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (VMPFC), a core region of the brain that is involved with cardio-autonomic regulation.Method
Eighteen HIV+ men on antiretroviral therapy and with no history of heart disease were compared with 26 HIV-negative control subjects who had similar demographic and cardio-metabolic characteristics. A seed-based rsFC analysis of the right and left VMPFC was performed at the individual subject level, and 2nd-level analyses were conducted to identify the following: group differences in connectivity, brain regions correlating with corrected (QTc) interval length before and after controlling for those group differences, and regions where seed-based rsFC correlates with CD4 count and QTc interval within HIV+ individuals.Results
HIV-negative adults showed greater rsFC between the VMPFC seed regions and several default mode network structures. Across groups greater rsFC with the left anterior insula was associated with shorter QTc intervals, whereas right posterior insula connectivity with the VMPFC correlated with greater QTc intervals. HIV patients with lower CD4 counts and higher QTc intervals showed greater rsFC between the right VMPFC and the right posterior insula and dorsal cingulate gyrus.Conclusions
This study demonstrates that QTc interval lengths are associated with distinct patterns of VMPFC rsFC with posterior and anterior insula. In HIV patients, longer QTc interval and lower CD4 count corresponded to weaker VMPFC connectivity with the dorsal striatrum.Significance
A forebrain control mechanism may be implicated in the suppression of cardiovagal influence that confers risk for ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death in HIV+ individuals. 相似文献6.

Objective
For a decade it has been known that the insular lobe epilepsy can mimic frontal lobe epilepsy. We aimed to clarify the pattern of functional coupling occurring during the frontal presentation.Methods
We analyzed five insular lobe epilepsy patients. Frontal semiology was predominant for three of them, whereas insular semiology was predominant for the two others. We applied the non-linear regression analysis to stereoelectroencephalography-recorded seizures. A directed functional coupling index was calculated during clonic discharge periods that were accompanied either with frontal or insular semiology.Results
We found significant functional coupling between the insula and mesial frontal/cingulate regions, with the former being a leader region for seizures propagation. Extra-insular regions showed significantly less or even no coupling with the mesial hemispheric regions. The three patients with frontal semiology showed strong couplings with the mesial frontal as well as cingulate regions, including the medial orbitofrontal cortex, pre-SMA/SMA, and the anterior to posterior cingulate. The two patients with the insular semiology only showed couplings between the insula and cingulate regions.Conclusions
The frontal semiology was expressed by strong functional couplings between the insula and mesial frontal regions.Significance
The insular origin of seizure should be considered in cryptogenic mesial frontal epilepsies. 相似文献7.
Objective
To examine event-related brain potentials (ERPs) in Multiple Sclerosis (MS) during a visual n-back working memory (WM) task, and test the hypothesis that compensatory brain function may be associated with variance in task performance in MS patients.Methods
Midline ERPs for 25 MS patients and 18 HCs were obtained for a visual n-back task that placed increasing demands on WM. N-back behavioral measures and neuropsychological performance measures of WM were also obtained.Results
MS patients had slower reaction times (RTs) than HCs during the n-back task. Accuracy on the n-back and on neuropsychological tests did not differ between groups. P3 ERP amplitude decreased for both groups as WM demand increased. MS patients had lower overall P1 and P3 amplitudes compared to HCs. In MS, anteriorization of P3 amplitude was associated with better n-back performance. P1 and P3 amplitudes were also related to neuropsychological test performance in MS.Conclusions
MS patients had reduced ERP amplitude compared to HCs during the n-back, and changes in ERP anterior–posterior midline amplitude distribution in MS were associated with cognitive performance.Significance
ERPs, and in particular the P3 component obtained during a visual n-back task, are sensitive to subtle WM dysfunction in MS and may reflect compensatory reallocation of brain resources. 相似文献8.

Objective
Due to limited information from scalp electroencephalographic (EEG) recordings, brain areas driving changes in cardiac rhythm during Temporal lobe (TL) seizures are not clearly identified. Using stereotactic EEG (SEEG) recordings, we aimed at identifying which of the brain regions involved in autonomic control trigger ictal tachycardia.Methods
The neural activity of several mesial temporal lobe structures including amygdala, hippocampus, insula, and lateral temporal lobe recorded with SEEG were collected during 37 TL seizures in 9 patients, using indices based on High Frequency Activity (HFA). R-R intervals (RR) monitoring and time-frequency spectral analysis were performed to assess parasympathetic (High frequency power (HF)) and sympathetic (Low frequency/High frequency (LF/HF) ratio) reactivities.Results
Tachycardia was associated with a significant increase in LF/HF ratio and decrease in HF. Autonomic cardiac changes were accompanied by simultaneous SEEG signal changes with an increase in seizure-related HFA in anterior hippocampal formation and amygdala, but not in insula.Conclusion
In our sample, TL seizures are thus accompanied by an early decrease in parasympathetic control of cardiac rhythm and by an increase of sympathetic tone, concomitant to seizure activity in anterior hippocampus and amygdala.Significance
These results support a pivotal role of hippocampus and amygdala in tachycardia occurring during TL seizures. 相似文献9.

Objective
Abnormal primary motor cortex plasticity might be involved in the pathophysiology of progressive supranuclear palsy. In the present study we aimed to investigate possible abnormalities of depotentiation, a mechanism involved in plasticity regulation, in this condition.Methods
Primary motor cortex excitability, investigated with single and paired-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation, as well as long-term potentiation-like plasticity and its reversibility, were studied using theta burst stimulation in 15 patients with progressive supranuclear palsy and 11 healthy controls. Participants underwent two sessions using (1) the intermittent theta-burst stimulation (potentiation protocol) and (2) intermittent theta-burst stimulation combined with a depotentiation protocol (a short continuous theta-burst stimulation).Results
Patients with PSP had higher corticospinal excitability and lower intracortical inhibition than healthy controls. Intermittent theta-burst stimulation elicited an abnormally increased long term potentiation-like effect in patients in comparison to healthy subjects. However, the depotentiation protocol was able to reverse the effects intermittent theta-burst stimulation on motor cortex excitability both in patients and in healthy controls.Conclusions
Altered primary motor cortex plasticity in patients with PSP does not reflect an abnormality of depotentiation.Significance
This study provides information for a deeper understanding of the possible pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the altered M1 plasticity in PSP. 相似文献10.

Objective
To explore brain activity in AD with depression (D-AD) based on fractional amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (fALFF).Methods
Twenty-two D-AD and 21 AD without depression patients (nD-AD) were examined by magnetic resonance imaging during resting state. Neuropsychiatric Inventory and Hamilton Depression Rating Scale were employed to assess the severity of depression. We analysed the characteristics of fALFF in D-AD differing from nD-AD. We also examined the correlation between fALFF and the depression severity.Results
D-AD patients had higher fALFF in right fusiform gyrus, left caudate nucleus, and right middle temporal gyrus (MTG), meanwhile lower fALFF in supplementary motor area (SMA) than nD-AD patients.Conclusions
Abnormal fALFF changes in fusiform gyrus, caudate nucleus, MTG and SMA may be important neuropathophysiologic characteristics of depression in AD.Significance
We have clarified the potential neuropathological changes of depression in AD based on fALFF method, which is crucial for effective intervention. 相似文献11.

Objective
This work investigates the spatial distribution in time of generalized ictal spikes in the typical absences of childhood absence epilepsy (CAE).Methods
We studied twelve children with CAE, who had more than two typical absences during their routine video-EEG. Seizures were identified, and ictal spikes were marked over the maximum electronegative peak, clustered, waveform-averaged and spatiotemporaly analyzed in 2D electrode space.Results
Consistency of spatiotemporal patterns of ictal spikes was high between the absences of the same child, but low between children. Three main discharge patterns were identified: of anterio-posterior propagation, of posterio-anterior propagation and confined to the frontal/prefrontal regions. In 4 patients, the propagation patterns transformed during the seizure into either a lateralized diminished or a non-lateralized reverse direction form. Most spikes originated fronto-temporaly, all maximized over the frontal/prefrontal electrodes and mostly decayed prefrontaly. In 4 patients, lateralized propagation patterns were identified.Conclusions
Ictal spike propagation patterns suggest that epileptogenic CAE networks are personalized, interconnect distal areas in the brain – not the entire cortex – with a tendency to generate bilateral symmetrical discharges, sometimes unsuccessfully. The transformation of propagation patterns during the seizure indicates the existence of dynamic interplay within epileptogenic networks.Significance
Our results support the revised concept of ictogenesis of ILAE definition in genetic (also known as idiopathic) generalized epilepsies. Understanding the focal features in CAE avoids misdiagnosis as focal epilepsy and inappropriate treatment. 相似文献12.

Objective
Executive dysfunctions affect up to 50% of the patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Executive dysfunctions have been identified as negative prognostic factor and can affect quality of life in patients and their caregivers. Assessment of executive dysfunction may be impeded by the patients’ motor impairments. Event-related potentials (ERP) have been proposed as a tool to overcome these assessment difficulties. The error(-related) negativity (Ne/ERN) is an ERP which can be recorded with minimal motor requirements for the patient.Methods
We compared response-synchronized ERP amplitudes of 18 ALS patients and 19 healthy controls (HC) obtained on error trials on a flanker task. We also evaluated the relation between Ne/ERN amplitudes and executive functions as assessed by standardized neuropsychological measures.Results
While response-synchronized ERP amplitudes were generally unaffected by ALS, we found an ALS-associated relation between Ne/ERN amplitudes and executive functions. ALS patients with poorer executive functioning showed attenuated Ne/ERN amplitudes.Conclusions
Our data suggest that Ne/ERN amplitudes reflect ALS-associated impairment of executive functions, potentially due to disturbances in neural networks that involve the anterior cingulate cortex.Significance
Assessment of Ne/ERN amplitudes might provide a cost-efficient and non-invasive marker for executive dysfunction in ALS. 相似文献13.

Objective
We investigated neuronal correlates of faces versus non-faces processing in a cortically blind patient (TN) and a group of healthy age-matched controls in order to test electrophysiological correlates of the processing of pertinent stimuli in this patient.Methods
An EEG paradigm was used, in which intact and scrambled faces were displayed on a screen. First, time-frequency transforms were conducted on the patients’ data alone. These oscillations were then compared to the frontal activity of six control participants.Results
Post stimulus oscillatory modulations (synchronisation in theta and alpha frequency bands) of both intact and scrambled faces at frontal scalp sites were observed in TN. These modulations were different for correct and incorrect responses. A more important increase in the theta band for incorrect responses was observed. The oscillatory rhythms highlighted in blindsight and in frontal regions differ from the ones observed in control participants.Conclusion
Despite the destruction of the visual cortex, oscillatory rhythms are not cancelled out but are shifted to anterior regions, revealing the activity of an alternate pathway for residual visual function.Significance
The results provide evidence for a top-down cognitive control process in blindsight. 相似文献14.

Objective
Altered brain connectivity has been theorized as a key neural underpinning of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), but recent investigations have revealed conflicting patterns of connectivity, particularly hyper-connectivity and hypo-connectivity across age groups. The application of graph theory to neuroimaging data has become an effective approach for characterizing topographical patterns of large-scale functional networks. We used a graph approach to investigate alteration of functional networks in childhood ASD.Method
Magnetoencephalographic signals were quantified using graph-theoretic metrics with a phase lag index (PLI) for specific bands in 24 children with autism spectrum disorder and 24 typically developing controls.Results
No significant group difference of PLI was found. Regarding topological organization, enhanced and reduced small-worldness, representing the efficiency of information processing, were observed respectively in ASD children, particularly in the gamma band and delta band.Conclusions
Analyses revealed frequency-dependent atypical neural network topologies in ASD children.Significance
Our findings underscore the recently proposed atypical neural network theory of ASD during childhood. Graph theory with PLI applied to magnetoencephalographic signals might be a useful approach for characterizing the frequency-specific neurophysiological bases of ASD. 相似文献15.
Objective
We evaluated the performance of our previously developed seizure prediction approach on thirty eight seizures from ten patients with focal hippocampal epilepsy.Methods
The seizure prediction system was developed based on the extraction of correlation dimension, correlation entropy, noise level, Lempel-Ziv complexity, largest Lyapunov exponent, and nonlinear interdependence from segments of intracranial EEG.Results
Our results showed an average sensitivity of 86.7% and 92.9%, an average false prediction rate of 0.126 and 0.096/h, and an average minimum prediction time of 14.3 and 33.3 min, respectively, using seizure occurrence periods of 30 and 50 min and a seizure prediction horizon of 10 s. Two-third of the analyzed seizures showed significantly increased complexity in periods prior to the seizures in comparison with baseline.In four patients, strong bidirectional connectivities between epileptic contacts and the surrounding areas were observed. However, in five patients, unidirectional functional connectivities in preictal periods were observed from remote areas to epileptogenic zones.Conclusions
Overall, preictal periods in patients with focal hippocampal epilepsy were characterized with patient-specific changes in univariate and bivariate nonlinear measures.Significance
The spatio-temporal characterization of preictal periods may help to better understand the mechanism underlying seizure generation in patients with focal hippocampal epilepsy. 相似文献16.

Objective
To investigate the ability of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) outcomes in the chronic stroke population to (i) track individual plastic changes and (ii) detect differences between individuals. To this end, intrarater “test-retest” reliability (relative and absolute) was tested for the ipsilesional and contralesional hemispheres.Methods
Thirteen participants with a unilateral stroke (≥6 months ago) and sensorimotor impairments were enrolled. Single and paired-pulse TMS outcomes were obtained from the primary motor cortex (M1) representation of the tibialis anterior muscle in both hemispheres and at two sessions separated by one week. The standard error of the measurement (SEMeas), minimal detectable change (MDC) and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) were studied.Results
Active motor threshold and latency of motor evoked potentials provided the lowest SEMeas and highest ICCs for both ipsi- and contralesional hemispheres. However, MDC were generally large, thus questioning the use of TMS outcomes to track individual plastic changes of M1.Conclusions
Our study provided supporting evidence of good to excellent intrarater reliability for a few TMS outcomes and proposed recommendations on the interpretation and the use of that knowledge in future work.Significance
Psychometric properties of TMS measures should be further addressed in order to better understand how to refine their use in clinical settings. 相似文献17.

Introduction
White matter hyperintensities (WMHs) increase the risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Whether WMHs are associated with the decline of functional neural networks in AD is debated.Method
Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging and WMH were assessed in 78 subjects with increased amyloid levels on AV-45 positron emission tomography (PET) in different clinical stages of AD. We tested the association between WMH volume in major atlas-based fiber tract regions of interest (ROIs) and changes in functional connectivity (FC) between the tracts' projection areas within the default mode network (DMN).Results
WMH volume within the inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus (IFOF) was the highest among all tract ROIs and associated with reduced FC in IFOF-connected DMN areas, independently of global AV-45 PET. Higher AV-45 PET contributed to reduced FC in IFOF-connected, temporal, and parietal DMN areas.Conclusions
High fiber tract WMH burden is associated with reduced FC in connected areas, thus adding to the effects of amyloid pathology on neuronal network function. 相似文献18.

Objective
We aimed to investigate neuromodulatory effects of high-frequency left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on resting-state electroencephalography (EEG) and their clinical and cognitive correlates in patients with depression.Methods
Thirty-one patients diagnosed with depression included in the present study. Resting-state gamma power and theta–gamma coupling (TGC) were calculated before and after a course of rTMS. We explored the relationship among gamma power, TGC, and clinical/cognitive outcomes as measured with the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAM-D17), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST).Results
Following rTMS, depressed patients demonstrated significant increases of resting gamma power at the F3 and F4 electrode sites and resting TGC at the C3 and T3 electrode sites. Furthermore, the increased gamma power at the F3 electrode site was significantly correlated with improved score on the HAM-D17 and BDI, while the increased TGC at the C3 electrode site was significantly correlated with reduced number of errors on the WCST.Conclusion
Thus, resting-state gamma power and TGC may represent potential biomarkers of depression associated with therapeutic effects of rTMS.Significance
Resting-state EEG may provide potential biomarkers related to therapeutic effects of rTMS. 相似文献19.

Objective
The study aimed to examine whether remitted depressed (RMD) individuals show a dysfunction of valence-dependent manipulation and its neurophysiological correlates.Method
Event-related potentials were conducted on 25 individuals with remitted depression and 27 controls during a working memory manipulation task. The sorting costs and the P3b and slow wave (SW) amplitudes were analyzed.Results
Compared to the control subjects, the RMD individuals revealed higher sorting costs, particularly when they were shown negative targets. The control individuals exhibited reduced P3b and SW amplitudes in response to the backward negative pictures, whereas the RMD participants exhibited increased central-parietal and lateral P3b and SW amplitudes in the backward condition. Both groups exhibited overall decreased P3b and SW amplitudes in response to the backward positive pictures.Conclusions
RMD individuals are associated with a deficient manipulation for negative material and an unimpaired manipulation for positive material.Significance
This study extends current knowledge that deficits in cognitive control persist after the remission of depressive symptoms. 相似文献20.
