Abstract
Introduction Cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) affects older adults, but traditional approaches have limited the understanding of the neural mechanisms of SVD. This study aimed to explore the effects of SVD on brain regions and its association with cognitive decline using the four-dimensional (spatiotemporal) consistency of local neural activity (FOCA) method. Methods Magnetic resonance imaging data from 42 patients with SVD and 38 healthy controls (HCs) were analyzed using the FOCA values. A two-sample t test was performed to compare the differences in FOCA values in the brain between the HCs and SVD groups. Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to analyze the association of various brain regions with SVD scores. Results The results revealed that the FOCA values in the right frontal_inf_oper, right temporal_pole_sup, and default mode network decreased, whereas those in the temporal_inf, hippocampus, basal ganglia, and cerebellum increased, in patients with SVD. Most of these varying brain regions were negatively correlated with SVD scores. Discussion This study suggested that the FOCA approach might have the potential to provide useful insights into the understanding of the neurophysiologic mechanisms of patients with SVD.

Resting-state functional connectivity and spontaneous brain activity in early-onset bipolar disorder: A review of functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging studies. J Affect Disord 2022; 311:463-471. [PMID: 35580695 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2022.05.055] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2021] [Revised: 05/04/2022] [Accepted: 05/10/2022] [Indexed: 10/18/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Early-onset bipolar disorder (BD) is a complex psychiatric illness characterized by mood swings, irritability and functional impairments. To improve our understanding of the pathophysiology of the disorder, we collected the existing resting-state functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (rs-fMRI) studies exploring resting-state functional connectivity (rs-FC) and spontaneous activity alterations in children and adolescents with BD. METHODS A search on PubMed, Web of Science and Scopus was conducted to identify all the relevant rs-fMRI investigations conducted in early-onset BD. A total of 14 studies employing different methodological approaches to explore rs-FC and spontaneous activity in early-onset BD were included (independent component analysis, n = 1; seed-based analysis, n = 7; amplitude of low frequency fluctuations analysis, n = 2; regional homogeneity analysis, n = 4). RESULTS Overall, the studies showed abnormalities within the Default Mode Network (DMN) and between the DMN and the Salience Network (SN). Moreover, widespread alterations in rs-FC and spontaneous brain activity within and between cortico-limbic structures, involving primarily the occipital and frontal lobes, amygdala, hippocampus, insula, thalamus and striatum were also reported. LIMITATIONS The small sample sizes, the use of medications, the presence of comorbidities and the heterogeneity in methods hamper the integration of the study findings. CONCLUSIONS Early-onset BD seems to be characterized by selective rs-FC and spontaneous activity dysfunctions in DMN and SN as well as in the cortico-limbic and cortico-striatal circuits, which could explain the emotive and cognitive deficits observed in this disabling psychiatric illness.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Psychotic symptoms are quite common in patients with pediatric bipolar disorder (PBD) and may affect the symptom severity and prognosis of PBD. However, the potential mechanisms are less well elucidated until now. Thus, the purpose of this study was to investigate the brain functional differences between PBD patients with and without psychotic symptoms. METHOD A total of 71 individuals including: 27 psychotic PBD (P-PBD), 25 nonpsychotic PBD (NP-PBD), and 19 healthy controls were recruited in the present study. Each subject underwent 3.0 Tesla functional magnetic resonance imaging scan. Four-dimensional (spatiotemporal) Consistency of local neural Activities (FOCA) was employed to detect the local brain activity changes. Analyses of variance (ANOVA) were used to reveal brain regions with significant differences among three groups groups of individuals, and inter-group comparisons were assessed using post hoc tests. RESULTS The ANOVA obtained significant among-group FOCA differences in the left triangular inferior frontal gyrus, left supplementary motor area, left precentral gyrus, right postcentral gyrus, right superior occipital gyrus, and right superior frontal gyrus. Compared with the control group, the P-PBD group showed decreased FOCA in the left supplementary motor area and bilateral superior frontal gyrus and showed increased FOCA in the left triangular inferior frontal gyrus. In contrast, the NP-PBD group exhibited decreased FOCA in the right superior occipital gyrus and right postcentral gyrus and showed increased FOCA in the left orbital inferior frontal gyrus. Compared to the NP-PBD group, the P-PBD group showed decreased FOCA in the right superior frontal gyrus. CONCLUSION The present findings demonstrated that the two groups of PBD patients exhibited segregated brain functional patterns, providing empirical evidence for the biological basis of different clinical outcomes between PBD patients with and without psychotic symptoms.

Abstract
Bipolar disorder (BD) is a life-threatening illness which clinically defined by an alternating pattern of depressive and manic episodes with a separated period of euthymia. It remains unknown about the consistency of temporal-spatial spontaneous brain activity in euthymic patients, especially in pediatric BD (PBD) patients.Resting-state fMRI signals of sixteen euthymic PBD patients and 16 healthy controls were processed and FOur-dimensional (spatiotemporal) Consistency of local neural Activities (FOCA) and functional connectivity were calculated in the present study. Voxel-wised correlation between clinical and cognitive indices and FOCA in PBD was calculated.Compared with healthy subjects, euthymic PBD patients showed worse performance in tests of Stroop Color-Word Test, Digit Span Test and Trail Making Test. Euthymic PBD patients demonstrated increased FOCA in left inferior frontal gyrus, left anterior cingulate cortex and left superior frontal gyrus and decreased FOCA in right orbital frontal gyrus, bilateral precuneus, right superior occipital gyrus and bilateral superior parietal gyrus. Decreased functional connectivities were found between right orbital frontal gyrus and left amygdala, between left superior frontal gyrus and left putamen, and between left superior frontal gyrus and left insula. And increased functional connectivity was found between right superior occipital gyrus and right hippocampus. FOCA of parahippocampal gyrus was negatively correlated with the SCWT-B score in PBD patients.Abnormal spatiotemporal consistency of brain regions of corticolimbic circuitry is possible to contribute to an imbalance between emotional processing and cognitive control in euthymic PBD. The measurement of FOCA measure may provide important clues of understanding PBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Given that there is no specific drug to treat Alzheimer's disease, non-pharmacologic interventions in people with subjective cognitive decline (SCD) and amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) are one of the most important treatment strategies. OBJECTIVE To clarify the efficacy of blue-green (500 nm) light therapy on sleep, mood, and physiological parameters in patients with SCD and aMCI is an interesting avenue to explore. METHODS This is a monocentric, randomized, and controlled trial that will last for 4 weeks. We will recruit 150 individuals aged 45 years or older from memory clinics and divide them into 5 groups: SCD treatment (n = 30), SCD control (n = 30), aMCI treatment (n = 30), aMCI control (n = 30), and a group of healthy adult subjects (n = 30) as a normal control (NC). RESULTS The primary outcome is the change in subjective and objective cognitive performance between baseline and postintervention visits (4 weeks after baseline). Secondary outcomes include changes in performance assessing from baseline, postintervention to follow-up (3 months after the intervention), as well as sleep, mood, and physiological parameters (including blood, urine, electrophysiology, and neuroimaging biomarkers). CONCLUSION This study aims to provide evidence of the impact of light therapy on subjective and objective cognitive performance in middle-aged and older adults with SCD or aMCI. In addition, we will identify possible neurophysiological mechanisms of action underlying light therapy. Overall, this trial will contribute to the establishment of light therapy in the prevention of Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
There are currently no validated treatment biomarkers in psychiatry. Resting State Functional Connectivity (RSFC) is a popular method for investigating the neural correlates of mood disorders, but the breadth of the field makes it difficult to assess progress toward treatment response biomarkers. In this review, we followed general PRISMA guidelines to evaluate the evidence base for mood disorder treatment biomarkers across diagnoses, brain network models, and treatment modalities. We hypothesized that no treatment biomarker would be validated across these domains or with independent datasets. Results are organized, interpreted, and discussed in the context of four popular analytic techniques: (1) reference region (seed-based) analysis, (2) independent component analysis, (3) graph theory analysis, and (4) other methods. Cortico-limbic connectivity is implicated across studies, but there is no single biomarker that spans analyses or that has been replicated in multiple independent datasets. We discuss RSFC limitations and future directions in biomarker development.

Abstract
The dynamic profile of brain function has received much attention in recent years and is also a focus in the study of epilepsy. The present study aims to integrate the dynamics of temporal and spatial characteristics to provide comprehensive and novel understanding of epileptic dynamics. Resting state fMRI data were collected from eighty-three patients with idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE) and 87 healthy controls (HC). Specifically, we explored the temporal and spatial variation of functional connectivity density (tvFCD and svFCD) in the whole brain. Using a sliding-window approach, for a given region, the standard variation of the FCD series was calculated as the tvFCD and the variation of voxel-wise spatial distribution was calculated as the svFCD. We found primary, high-level, and sub-cortical networks demonstrated distinct tvFCD and svFCD patterns in HC. In general, the high-level networks showed the highest variation, the subcortical and primary networks showed moderate variation, and the limbic system showed the lowest variation. Relative to HC, the patients with IGE showed weaken temporal and enhanced spatial variation in the default mode network and weaken temporospatial variation in the subcortical network. Besides, enhanced temporospatial variation in sensorimotor and high-level networks was also observed in patients. The hyper-synchronization of specific brain networks was inferred to be associated with the phenomenon responsible for the intrinsic propensity of generation and propagation of epileptic activities. The disrupted dynamic characteristics of sensorimotor and high-level networks might potentially contribute to the driven motion and cognition phenotypes in patients. In all, presently provided evidence from the temporospatial variation of functional interaction shed light on the dynamics underlying neuropathological profiles of epilepsy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION As aging attracted attention globally, revealing changes in brain function across the lifespan was largely concerned. In this study, we aimed to reveal the changes of functional networks of the brain (via local functional connectivity, local FC) in lifespan and explore the mechanism underlying them. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 523 healthy participants (258 males and 265 females) aged 18-88 years from part of the Cambridge Center for Ageing and Neuroscience (CamCAN) were involved in this study. Next, two data-driven measures of local FC, local functional connectivity density (lFCD) and four-dimensional spatial-temporal consistency of local neural activity (FOCA), were calculated, and then, general linear models were used to assess the changes of them in lifespan. RESULTS Local functional connectivity (lFCD and FOCA) within visual networks (VN), sensorimotor network (SMN), and default mode network (DMN) decreased across the lifespan, while within basal ganglia network (BGN), local connectivity was increased across the lifespan. And, the fluid intelligence decreased within BGN while increased within VN, SMN, and DMN. CONCLUSION These results might suggest that the decline of executive control and intrinsic cognitive ability in the aging population was related to the decline of functional connectivity in VN, SMN, and DMN. Meanwhile, BGN might play a regulatory role in the aging process to compensate for the dysfunction of other functional systems. Our findings may provide important neuroimaging evidence for exploring the brain functional mechanism in lifespan.

Abstract
Recently, scalp electroencephalography (EEG) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) multimodal fusion has been pursued in an effort to study human brain function and dysfunction to obtain more comprehensive information on brain activity in which the spatial and temporal resolutions are both satisfactory. However, a more flexible and easy-to-use toolbox for EEG–fMRI multimodal fusion is still lacking. In this study, we therefore developed a freely available and open-source MATLAB graphical user interface toolbox, known as the Neuroscience Information Toolbox (NIT), for EEG–fMRI multimodal fusion analysis. The NIT consists of three modules: (1) the fMRI module, which has batch fMRI preprocessing, nuisance signal removal, bandpass filtering, and calculation of resting-state measures; (2) the EEG module, which includes artifact removal, extracting EEG features (event onset, power, and amplitude), and marking interesting events; and (3) the fusion module, in which fMRI-informed EEG analysis and EEG-informed fMRI analysis are included. The NIT was designed to provide a convenient and easy-to-use toolbox for researchers, especially for novice users. The NIT can be downloaded for free at http://www.neuro.uestc.edu.cn/NIT.html, and detailed information, including the introduction of NIT, user’s manual and example data sets, can also be observed on this website. We hope that the NIT is a promising toolbox for exploring brain information in various EEG and fMRI studies.

[PMID: 30025236 DOI: 10.1016/j.jns.2018.07.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2017] [Revised: 06/14/2018] [Accepted: 07/08/2018] [Indexed: 10/28/2022]
Abstract
Essential tremor (ET) is one of the most common movement disorders in humans. Nevertheless, there remain several controversies surrounding ET, such as whether it is a disorder of abnormal neuronal oscillations within the tremor network. In this work, the resting-state fMRI data were collected from 17 ET patients and 17 age- and gender-matched healthy controls. First, using FOur-dimensional (spatiotemporal) Consistency of local neural Activities (FOCA) the abnormal synchronization of fMRI signals in ET patients were investigated. Then, global functional connectivity intensity (gFCI) and density (gFCD) were analyzed in the regions exhibiting significant FOCA differences. Compared with healthy controls, patients with ET showed the increased FOCA values found in the bilateral cuneus, the left lingual gyrus, the left paracentral lobule, the right middle temporal gyrus, the bilateral precentral gyrus, the right postcentral gyrus, the pallidum and putamen. Decreased FOCA values in ET patients were located in the frontal gyrus, the bilateral anterior cingulate and the medial dorsal nucleus of right thalamus. In ET patients, significant changes in gFCI and gFCD were located in the cuneus, the middle temporal gyrus and the middle frontal gyrus. Changes in gFCI were also found in the medial frontal gyrus and thalamus in addition to changes in gFCD in the precentral gyrus. Our results provided further evidence that ET might present with abnormal spontaneous activity in the tremor network, including motor-related cotex, basal ganglia and thalamus, as well as distributed non-motor areas. This work also demonstrated that FOCA and functional connectivity have the potential to provide important insight into the pathophysiological mechanism of ET.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the spatiotemporal Consistency of spontaneous activities in local brain regions in patients with generalized tonic-clonic seizures (GTCS). The resting-state fMRI data were acquired from nineteen patients with GTCS and twenty-two matched healthy subjects. FOur-dimensional (spatiotemporal) Consistency of local neural Activities (FOCA) metric was used to analyze the spontaneous activity in whole brain. The FOCA difference between two groups were detected using a two sample t-test analysis. Correlations between the FOCA values and features of seizures were analyzed. The findings of this study showed that patients had significantly increased FOCA in motor-related cortex regions, including bilateral supplementary motor area, paracentral lobule, precentral gyrus and left basal ganglia, as well as a substantial reduction of FOCA in regions of default mode network (DMN) and parietal lobe. In addition, several brain regions in DMN demonstrated more reduction with longer duration of epilepsy and later onset age, and the motor-related regions showed higher FOCA value in accompany with later onset age. These findings implicated the abnormality of motor-related cortical network in GTCS which were associated with the genesis and propagation of epileptiform activity. And the decreased FOCA in DMN might reflect the intrinsic disturbance of brain activity. Moreover, our study supported that the FOCA might be potential tool to investigate local brain spontaneous activity related with the epileptic activity, and to provide important insights into understanding the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms of GTCS.

Abstract
In the current study, FOur-dimensional Consistency of local neural Activities (FOCA) analysis was used to investigate the local consistency by integrating the temporal and spatial information of the local region. In the current study, resting-state fMRI data of 69 schizophrenia patients and 70 healthy controls were collected. FOCA was utilized to investigate the local consistency. Moreover, Granger causal analysis was used to investigate causal functional connectivity among these areas, which exhibited significantly different local consistency between groups. Compared with the healthy controls, the schizophrenia patients exhibited increased local consistency in hippocampus, basal ganglia and cerebellum regions, and decreased local consistency in sensoriperceptual cortex. In addition, altered causal functional connectivity was observed in hippocampo–cerebello-cortical (occipital) circuit. These findings suggested that this circuit might play a role in the motor dysfunction in schizophrenia, and should be paid more attention in future.

Altered local spontaneous activity in frontal lobe epilepsy: a resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging study. Brain Behav 2016; 6:e00555. [PMID: 27843705 PMCID: PMC5102650 DOI: 10.1002/brb3.555] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2016] [Revised: 07/11/2016] [Accepted: 08/01/2016] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the local spatiotemporal consistency of spontaneous brain activity in patients with frontal lobe epilepsy (FLE). METHOD Eyes closed resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data were collected from 19 FLE patients and 19 age- and gender-matched healthy controls. A novel measure, named FOur-dimensional (spatiotemporal) Consistency of local neural Activities (FOCA) was used to assess the spatiotemporal consistency of local spontaneous activity (emphasizing both local temporal homogeneity and regional stability of brain activity states). Then, two-sample t test was performed to detect the FOCA differences between two groups. Partial correlations between the FOCA values and durations of epilepsy were further analyzed. KEY FINDINGS Compared with controls, FLE patients demonstrated increased FOCA in distant brain regions including the frontal and parietal cortices, as well as the basal ganglia. The decreased FOCA was located in the temporal cortex, posterior default model regions, and cerebellum. In addition, the FOCA measure was linked to the duration of epilepsy in basal ganglia. SIGNIFICANCE Our study suggested that alterations of local spontaneous activity in frontoparietal cortex and basal ganglia was associated with the pathophysiology of FLE; and the abnormality in frontal and default model regions might account for the potential cognitive impairment in FLE. We also presumed that the FOCA measure had potential to provide important insights into understanding epilepsy such as FLE.
