Medicina - Ingeniería biomédica

Functional mapping of the nervous system helps to identify the activity in the human brain during certain tasks. The difference between the two conditions helps you to understand the electrode nodes that cause a particular change in the neural state. Therefore, in this book, we will witness the functional difference between healthy people, Alzheimer’s (AD) patients, multiple cognitive disorder (MCI) patients, and dementia patients. This gives the insight into the pair of electrodes that cause the progression of the disease from MCI to AD to dementia. This will help us in designing the biomarker in the future.

It aims to analyze the differences in brain activity between healthy individuals, Alzheimer's (AD) patients, multiple cognitive disorder (MCI) patients, and dementia patients. The authors aim to identify the specific electrode nodes that trigger the progression of the disease from MCI to AD to dementia, ultimately paving the way for the development of biomarkers for these disorders.

• Functional mapping of the nervous system in dementia disorders
• Comparison of brain activity between different patient groups and healthy individuals
• Identification of electrode nodes associated with disease progression
• Development of biomarkers for dementia disorders
• Analysis of EEG functional connectivity methodologies

Zusammenfassung der Kapitel (Chapter Summaries)

• Chapter 1 provides an introduction to the topic of functional mapping of the nervous system and its relevance to understanding dementia disorders. It also outlines the book's objectives and the different patient groups that will be analyzed.
• Chapter 2 focuses on the different types of neural disorders, particularly Alzheimer's disease and attention deficit/hyperactive disorder (ADHD). It describes the datasets used for the analysis and the preliminary signal processing techniques applied.
• Chapter 3 discusses the various EEG functional connectivity methodologies employed in the study. These methodologies include synchronization studies, such as amplitude and phase synchronization and Phase Locking Value (PLV), as well as frequency-dependent studies, such as Approximate Entropy (AE) and Transfer Entropy (TE), and Spectral Entropy.
• Chapter 4 delves into the application of Phase Locking Value (PLV) in analyzing the brain activity of dementia patients. It explores the time-frequency PLV spectrum, the identification of differential scalp maps, and network measures like path length and clustering coefficient.
• Chapter 5 investigates the use of Wavelet Spectral Entropy in analyzing brain activity. It discusses the time-frequency spectrum of Wavelet Spectral Entropy, the identification of reactive bands and most reactive pairs, and the relationship between functional connectivity and network measures.
