Taniguchi K, Jinno N, Seiyama A, Shimouchi A. Depression is associated with discoordination between heart rate variability and physical acceleration in older women. Health Sci Rep 2024; 7:e1916. [PMID: 38361804 PMCID: PMC10867689 DOI: 10.1002/hsr2.1916] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2023] [Revised: 12/26/2023] [Accepted: 01/25/2024] [Indexed: 02/17/2024] Open
Abstract
Background and Aims It is well known that depression is closely associated with the autonomic nervous system and physical acceleration (PA), which may cause functional time-deviance between these two parameters. Exploring this relationship is important in sustaining the mental and physical health of older adults in daily life. However, few studies have assessed the relationship between depression and the coordination of parasympathetic nervous activity (PSNA) and PA. The present study was designed to investigate whether the coordination between PSNA and PA is associated with the mental state of healthy volunteers in normal daily lives and the underlying mechanism. Methods In total, 95 adult women were divided into non-older and older groups comprising 50 (aged 20-59 years) and 45 (aged 60-85 years) women, respectively. PSNA and PA data were simultaneously obtained every minute for 24 h during the free-moving day using the ActiveTracer accelerometer. Lag time was determined as the time difference between PSNA and PA, and it was introduced as a parameter of %lag0, which is the percent ratio of the lag = 0 min between PSNA and PA in 1 h. The General Health Questionnaire 28 (GHQ28) was used to evaluate the effects of psychological distress, including depression. Results In the hour before sleep, %lag0 was significantly lower in older women (38.7 ± 6.4) who had higher GHQ28 values (subscale D = 0, n = 12) compared with that in older women (19.4 ± 10.5) with lower values (subscale D ≧ 1, n = 33) (p < 0.05). Conclusion Impairments in coordination between PSNA and PA are significantly associated with depression in older women, particularly in the hour before sleep on free-moving days.

Using spectral and temporal filters with EEG signal to predict the temporal lobe epilepsy outcome after antiseizure medication via machine learning. Sci Rep 2023; 13:22532. [PMID: 38110465 PMCID: PMC10728218 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-49255-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2023] [Accepted: 12/06/2023] [Indexed: 12/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Epilepsy is a neurological disorder in which the brain is transiently altered. Predicting outcomes in epilepsy is essential for providing feedback that can foster improved outcomes in the future. This study aimed to investigate whether applying spectral and temporal filters to resting-state electroencephalography (EEG) signals could improve the prediction of outcomes for patients taking antiseizure medication to treat temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). We collected EEG data from a total of 46 patients (divided into a seizure-free group (SF, n = 22) and a non-seizure-free group (NSF, n = 24)) with TLE and retrospectively reviewed their clinical data. We segmented spectral and temporal ranges with various time-domain features (Hjorth parameters, statistical parameters, energy, zero-crossing rate, inter-channel correlation, inter-channel phase locking value and spectral information derived from Fourier transform, Stockwell transform, and wavelet transform) and compared their performance by applying an optimal frequency strategy, an optimal duration strategy, and a combination strategy. For all time-domain features, the optimal frequency and time combination strategy showed the highest performance in distinguishing SF patients from NSF patients (area under the curve (AUC) = 0.790 ± 0.159). Furthermore, optimal performance was achieved by utilizing a feature vector derived from statistical parameters within the 39- to 41-Hz frequency band with a window length of 210 s, as evidenced by an AUC of 0.748. By identifying the optimal parameters, we improved the performance of the prediction model. These parameters can serve as standard parameters for predicting outcomes based on resting-state EEG signals.

SENSORS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 23:6890. [PMID: 37571672 PMCID: PMC10422553 DOI: 10.3390/s23156890] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2023] [Revised: 07/25/2023] [Accepted: 08/01/2023] [Indexed: 08/13/2023]
Abstract
Stretching is an effective exercise for increasing body flexibility and pain relief. This study investigates the relationship between stretching intensity and relaxation effects, focusing on brainwaves and autonomic nervous system (ANS) activity. We used a crossover design with low- and high-intensity conditions to elucidate the impact of varying stretching intensities on neural activity associated with relaxation in 19 healthy young adults. Participants completed mood questionnaires. Electroencephalography (EEG) and plethysmography measurements were also obtained before, during, and after stretching sessions. The hamstring muscle was targeted for stretching, with intensity conditions based on the Point of Discomfort. Data analysis included wavelet analysis for EEG, plethysmography data, and repeated-measures ANOVA to differentiate mood, ANS activity, and brain activity related to stretching intensity. Results demonstrated no significant differences between ANS and brain activity based on stretching intensity. However, sympathetic nervous activity showed higher activity during the rest phases than in the stretch phases. Regarding brain activity, alpha and beta waves showed higher activity during the rest phases than in the stretch phases. A negative correlation between alpha waves and sympathetic nervous activities was observed in high-intensity conditions. However, a positive correlation between beta waves and parasympathetic nervous activities was found in low-intensity conditions. Our findings suggest that stretching can induce interactions between the ANS and brain activity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE/BACKGROUND Previous studies have shown that obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is associated with reduced delta EEG and increased beta EEG power and increased EEG slowing ratio. There are however no studies that explore differences in sleep EEG between positional obstructive sleep apnoea (pOSA) and non-positional obstructive sleep apnoea (non-pOSA) patients. PATIENTS/METHODS 556 of 1036 consecutive patients (246 of 556 were female) undertaking polysomnography (PSG) for the suspicion of OSA met the inclusion criteria for this study. We calculated power spectra of each sleep epoch using Welch's method with ten, 4-s overlapping windows. Outcome measures such as Epworth Sleepiness Scale, SF-36 Quality of Life, Functional Outcomes of Sleep Questionnaire and Pyschomotor Vigilance Task were compared between the groups. RESULTS Patients with pOSA had greater delta EEG power in NREM and greater N3 proportions compared to their non-pOSA counterparts. There were no differences in theta (4-8Hz), alpha (8-12Hz), sigma (12-15Hz) or beta (15-25Hz) EEG power or EEG slowing ratio between the two groups. There were also no differences in the outcome measures between these two groups. The division of pOSA into spOSA and siOSA groups showed better sleep parameters in siOSA but with no difference in sleep power spectra. CONCLUSIONS This study partially supports our hypothesis in showing that pOSA, compared to non-pOSA, is associated with increased delta EEG power but did not show any variation to beta EEG power or EEG slowing ratio. This limited improvement in sleep quality did not translate to measurable changes to outcomes, suggesting beta EEG power or EEG slowing ratio may be key factors.

Abstract
Purpose Accumulating evidence suggests that theta/beta ratio (TBR), an electroencephalographic (EEG) frequency band parameter, might serve as an objective marker of executive cognitive control in healthy adults. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has a detrimental impact on patients' behavior and cognitive performance while whether TBR is different in OSA population has not been reported. This study aimed to explore the difference in relative EEG spectral power and TBR during sleep between patients with severe OSA and non-OSA groups. Patients and Methods 142 participants with in-laboratory nocturnal PSG recording were included, among which 100 participants suffered severe OSA (apnea hypopnea index, AHI > 30 events/hour; OSA group) and 42 participants had no OSA (AHI ≤ 5 events/h; control group). The fast Fourier transformation was used to compute the EEG power spectrum for total sleep duration within contiguous 30-second epochs of sleep. The demographic and polysomnographic characteristics, relative EEG spectral power and TBR of the two groups were compared. Results It was found that the beta band power during NREM sleep and total sleep was significantly higher in the OSA group than controls (p < 0.001, p = 0.012, respectively), and the theta band power during NREM sleep and total sleep was significantly lower in the OSA group than controls (p = 0.019, p = 0.014, respectively). TBR during NREM sleep, REM sleep and total sleep was significantly lower in the OSA group compared to the control group (p < 0.001 for NREM sleep and total sleep, p = 0.015 for REM sleep). TBR was negatively correlated with AHI during NREM sleep (r=-0.324, p < 0.001) and total sleep (r=-0. 312, p < 0.001). Conclusion TBR was significantly decreased in severe OSA patients compared to the controls, which was attributed to both increased beta power and decreased theta power. TBR may be a stable EEG-biomarker of OSA patients, which may accurately and reliably identify phenotype of patients.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Sleep microarchitecture parameters determined by quantitative power spectral analysis (PSA) of electroencephalograms (EEGs) have been proposed as potential brain-specific markers of cognitive dysfunction. However, data from community samples remains limited. This study examined cross-sectional associations between sleep microarchitecture and cognitive dysfunction in community-dwelling men. METHODS Florey Adelaide Male Ageing Study participants (n=477) underwent home-based polysomnography (PSG) (2010-2011). All-night EEG recordings were processed using PSA following artefact exclusion. Cognitive testing (2007-2010) included the inspection time task, trail-making tests A (TMT-A) and B (TMT-B), and Fuld object memory evaluation. Complete case cognition, PSG, and covariate data were available in 366 men. Multivariable linear regression models controlling for demographic, biomedical, and behavioral confounders determined cross-sectional associations between sleep microarchitecture and cognitive dysfunction overall and by age-stratified subgroups. RESULTS In the overall sample, worse TMT-A performance was associated with higher NREM theta and REM theta and alpha but lower delta power (all p<0.05). In men ≥65 years, worse TMT-A performance was associated with lower NREM delta but higher NREM and REM theta and alpha power (all p<0.05). Furthermore, in men ≥65 years, worse TMT-B performance was associated with lower REM delta but higher theta and alpha power (all p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Sleep microarchitecture parameters may represent important brain-specific markers of cognitive dysfunction, particularly in older community-dwelling men. Therefore, this study extends the emerging community-based cohort literature on a potentially important link between sleep microarchitecture and cognitive dysfunction. Utility of sleep microarchitecture for predicting prospective cognitive dysfunction and decline warrants further investigation.

Abstract
Meditation training is proposed to enhance mental well-being by modulating neural activity, particularly alpha and theta brain oscillations, and autonomic activity. Although such enhancement also depends on the quality of meditation, little is known about how these neural and physiological changes relate to meditation quality. One model characterizes meditation quality as five increasing levels of ‘depth’: hindrances, relaxation, concentration, transpersonal qualities and nonduality. We investigated the neural oscillatory (theta, alpha, beta and gamma) and physiological (respiration rate, heart rate and heart rate variability) correlates of the self-reported meditation depth in long-term meditators (LTMs) and meditation-naïve controls (CTLs). To determine the neural and physiological correlates of meditation depth, we modelled the change in the slope of the relationship between self-reported experiential degree at each of the five depth levels and the multiple neural and physiological measures. CTLs reported experiencing more ‘hindrances’ than LTMs, while LTMs reported more ‘transpersonal qualities’ and ‘nonduality’ compared to CTLs, confirming the experiential manipulation of meditation depth. We found that in both groups, theta (4–6 Hz) and alpha (7–13 Hz) oscillations were related to meditation depth in a precisely opposite manner. The theta amplitude positively correlated with ‘hindrances’ and increasingly negatively correlated with increasing meditation depth levels. Alpha amplitude negatively correlated with ‘hindrances’ and increasingly positively with increasing depth levels. The increase in the inverse association between theta and meditation depth occurred over different scalp locations in the two groups—frontal midline in LTMs and frontal lateral in CTLs—possibly reflecting the downregulation of two different aspects of executive processing—monitoring and attention regulation, respectively—during deep meditation. These results suggest a functional dissociation of the two classical neural signatures of meditation training, namely, alpha and theta oscillations. Moreover, while essential for overcoming ‘hindrances’, executive neural processing appears to be downregulated during deeper meditation experiences.

Abstract
Fatigability is related to several diseases as well as the autonomic nervous system. We investigated whether fatigability is associated with coordination between physical acceleration (PA) and parasympathetic nervous activity (PSNA) in women. Overall, 95 women were divided into non-old (n = 50; age: 22-59 years) and old (n = 45; age: ≥60 years) groups. PSNA and PA data were simultaneously obtained every minute for 24 h. We defined %lag0 as the percent ratio of lag = 0 min between PSNA and PA in 1 h. Cornell Medical Index was used to determine the degrees of physical and psychological symptoms. In the non-older group in the hour before sleep, the participants with high fatigability scores had significantly lower %lag0 than those with low fatigability (p < 0.05). Additionally, those with higher fatigability combined with exhaustion in the morning had significantly lower %lag0 than those without exhaustion in the hour before sleep (p < 0.05) but not in the hour after waking up. These results suggest that fatigability in non-older women was associated with loss of coordination between PSNA and PA in the hour before sleep. Additionally, exhaustion in the morning may be related to loss coordination of PSNA and PA during the previous night.

Abstract
Multiple types of sleep arousal account for a large proportion of the causes of sleep disorders. The detection of sleep arousals is very important for diagnosing sleep disorders and reducing the risk of further complications including heart disease and cognitive impairment. Sleep arousal scoring is manually completed by sleep experts by checking the recordings of several periods of sleep polysomnography (PSG), which is a time-consuming and tedious work. Therefore, the development of efficient, fast, and reliable automatic sleep arousal detection system from PSG may provide powerful help for clinicians. This paper reviews the automatic arousal detection methods in recent years, which are based on statistical rules and deep learning methods. For statistical detection methods, three important processes are typically involved, including preprocessing, feature extraction and classifier selection. For deep learning methods, different models are discussed by now, including convolution neural network (CNN), recurrent neural network (RNN), long-term and short-term memory neural network (LSTM), residual neural network (ResNet), and the combinations of these neural networks. The prediction results of these neural network models are close to the judgments of human experts, and these methods have shown robust generalization capabilities on different data sets. Therefore, we conclude that the deep neural network will be the main research method of automatic arousal detection in the future.

Abstract
Background: We compared the density and duration of sleep spindles topographically in stage 2 and 3 of non-rapid eye movement sleep (N2 and N3) among adults diagnosed with Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS) and healthy controls. Materials and Methods: Thirty-one individuals with OSAS (mean age: 48.50 years) and 23 healthy controls took part in the study. All participants underwent a whole night polysomnography. Additionally, those with OSAS were divided into mild, moderate and severe cases of OSAS. Results: For N2, sleep spindle density did not significantly differ between participants with and without OSAS, or among those with mild, moderate and severe OSAS. For N3, post-hoc analyses revealed significantly higher spindle densities in healthy controls and individuals with mild OSAS than in those with moderate or severe OSAS. Last, in N2 a higher AHI was associated with a shorter sleep spindle duration. Conclusion: OSAS is associated with a significantly lower spindle density in N3 and a shorter spindle duration in N2. Our results also revealed that, in contrast to moderate and severe OSAS, the sleep spindle characteristics of individuals with mild OSAS were very similar to those of healthy controls.

Abstract
PURPOSE Previous spectral analysis studies on obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) involved small samples, and the results were inconsistent. We performed a spectral analysis of sleep EEG based on different severities of OSA using the Sleep Heart Health Study data. This study aimed to determine the difference in EEG spectral power during sleep in the non-OSA group and with different severities of OSA in the general population. PATIENTS AND METHODS The participants (n = 5,804) underwent polysomnography, and they were classified into non-OSA, mild OSA, moderate OSA, and severe OSA groups. The fast Fourier transformation was used to compute the EEG power spectrum for total sleep duration within contiguous 30-second epochs of sleep. The EEG spectral powers of the groups were compared using 4,493 participants after adjusting potential confounding factors that could affect sleep EEG. RESULTS The power spectra differed significantly among the groups for all frequency bands (p corr < 0.001). We found that the quantitative EEG spectral powers in the beta and sigma bands of total sleep differed (p corr < 0.001) among the participants in the non-OSA group and with different severities of OSA, controlling for covariates. The beta power was higher and the sigma power was lower in the OSA groups than in the non-OSA group. The beta power decreased in the order of severe OSA, moderate OSA, mild OSA, and non-OSA. CONCLUSION This study suggests that there are differences between the microstructures of PSG-derived sleep EEG of non-OSA participants and those with different severities of OSA.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a heterogeneous and multifactorial sleep related breathing disorder with high prevalence, is a recognized risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Autonomic dysfunction leads to adverse cardiovascular outcomes in diverse pathways. Heart rate is a complex physiological process involving neurovisceral networks and relative regulatory mechanisms such as thermoregulation, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone mechanisms, and metabolic mechanisms. Heart rate variability (HRV) is considered as a reliable and non-invasive measure of autonomic modulation response and adaptation to endogenous and exogenous stimuli. HRV measures may add a new dimension to help understand the interplay between cardiac and nervous system involvement in OSA. The aim of this review is to introduce the various applications of HRV in different aspects of OSA to examine the impaired neuro-cardiac modulation. More specifically, the topics covered include: HRV time windows, sleep staging, arousal, sleepiness, hypoxia, mental illness, and mortality and morbidity. All of these aspects show pathways in the clinical implementation of HRV to screen, diagnose, classify, and predict patients as a reasonable and more convenient alternative to current measures.

Sleep EEG microstructure is associated with neurobehavioural impairment after extended wakefulness in obstructive sleep apnea. Sleep Breath 2020; 25:347-354. [PMID: 32772308 DOI: 10.1007/s11325-020-02066-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2019] [Revised: 02/07/2020] [Accepted: 03/17/2020] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Using quantitative EEG (qEEG) analysis, we investigated sleep EEG microstructure as correlates of neurobehavioural performance after 24 h of extended wakefulness in untreated OSA. METHODS Eight male OSA patients underwent overnight polysomnography (PSG) at baseline followed by 40 h awake with repeated performance testing (psychomotor vigilance task [PVT] and AusEd driving simulator). EEG slowing during REM and spindle density during NREM sleep were calculated using power spectral analysis and a spindle detection algorithm at frontal and central electrode sites. Correlations between sleep EEG microstructure measures and performance after 24-h awake were assessed. RESULTS Greater EEG slowing during REM sleep was associated with slower PVT reaction times (rho = - 0.79, p = 0.02), more PVT lapses (rho = 0.87, p = 0.005) and more AusEd crashes (rho = 0.73, p = 0.04). Decreased spindle density in NREM sleep was also associated with slower PVT reaction times (rho = 0.89, p = 0.007). Traditional PSG measures of disease severity were not consistent correlates of neurobehavioural performance in OSA. CONCLUSIONS Sleep EEG microstructure measures recorded during routine PSG are associated with impaired vigilance in OSA patients after sleep deprivation. SIGNIFICANCE Quantitative brain oscillatory (or EEG)-based measures of sleep may better reflect the deleterious effects of untreated OSA than traditional PSG metrics in at-risk individuals.

Abstract
Connectivity between physiological networks is an issue of particular importance for understanding the complex interaction brain-heart. In the present study, this interaction was analyzed in polysomnography recordings of 28 patients diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and compared with a group of 10 control subjects. Electroencephalography and electrocardiography signals from these polysomnography time series were characterized employing Granger causality computation to measure the directed connectivity among five brain waves and three spectral subbands of heart rate variability. Polysomnography data from OSA patients were recorded before and during a first session of continuous positive air pressure (CPAP) therapy in a split-night study. Results showed that CPAP therapy allowed the recovery of inner brain connectivities, mainly in subsystems involving the theta wave. In addition, differences between control and OSA patients were established in connections that involve lower frequency ranges of heart rate variability. This information can be potentially useful in the initial diagnosis of OSA, and determine the role of cardiac activity in sleep dynamics based on the use of three subbands of heart rate variability.

Abstract
Industry 4.0 leaders solve problems all of the time. Successful problem-solving behavioral pattern choice determines organizational and personal success, therefore a proper understanding of the problem-solving-related neurological dynamics is sure to help increase business performance. The purpose of this paper is two-fold: first, to discover relevant neurological characteristics of problem-solving behavioral patterns, and second, to conduct a characterization of two problem-solving behavioral patterns with the aid of deep-learning architectures. This is done by combining electroencephalographic non-invasive sensors that capture process owners' brain activity signals and a deep-learning soft sensor that performs an accurate characterization of such signals with an accuracy rate of over 99% in the presented case-study dataset. As a result, the deep-learning characterization of lean management (LM) problem-solving behavioral patterns is expected to help Industry 4.0 leaders in their choice of adequate manufacturing systems and their related problem-solving methods in their future pursuit of strategic organizational goals.

Abstract
AbstractStudy ObjectivesSleep disordered breathing (SDB) in children has significant effects on daytime functioning and cardiovascular control; attributed to sleep fragmentation and repetitive hypoxia. Associations between electroencephalograph (EEG) spectral power, autonomic cardiovascular control and cerebral oxygenation have been identified in adults with SDB. To date, there have been no studies in children. We aimed to assess associations between EEG spectral power and heart rate variability as a measure of autonomic control, with cerebral oxygenation in children with SDB.MethodsOne hundred sixteen children (3–12 years) with SDB and 42 controls underwent overnight polysomnography including measurement of cerebral oxygenation. Power spectral analysis of the EEG derived from C4-M1 and F4-M1, quantified delta, theta, alpha, and beta waveforms during sleep. Multiple regression tested whether age, SDB severity, heart rate (HR), HR variability (HRV), and cerebral oxygenation were determinants of EEG spectral power.ResultsThere were no differences in EEG spectral power derived from either central or frontal regions for any frequency between children with different severities of SDB so these were combined. Age, HR, and HRV low frequency power were significant determinants of EEG spectral power depending on brain region and sleep stage.ConclusionThe significant findings of this study were that age and autonomic control, rather than cerebral oxygenation and SDB severity, were predictive of EEG spectral power in children. Further research is needed to elucidate how the physiology that underlies the relationship between autonomic control and EEG impacts on the cardiovascular sequelae in children with SDB.

Abstract
AbstractStudy ObjectivesQuantitative electroencephalography (EEG) measures of sleep may identify vulnerability to obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) sequelae, however, small clinical studies of sleep microarchitecture in OSA show inconsistent alterations. We examined relationships between quantitative EEG measures during rapid eye movement (REM) and non-REM (NREM) sleep and OSA severity among a large population-based sample of men while accounting for insomnia.MethodsAll-night EEG (F4-M1) recordings from full in-home polysomnography (Embletta X100) in 664 men with no prior OSA diagnosis (age ≥ 40) were processed following exclusion of artifacts. Power spectral analysis included non-REM and REM sleep computed absolute EEG power for delta, theta, alpha, sigma, and beta frequency ranges, total power (0.5–32 Hz) and EEG slowing ratio.ResultsApnea–hypopnea index (AHI) ≥10/h was present in 51.2% (severe OSA [AHI ≥ 30/h] 11.6%). In mixed effects regressions, AHI was positively associated with EEG slowing ratio and EEG power across all frequency bands in REM sleep (all p < 0.05); and with beta power during NREM sleep (p = 0.06). Similar associations were observed with oxygen desaturation index (3%). Percentage total sleep time with oxygen saturation <90% was only significantly associated with increased delta, theta, and alpha EEG power in REM sleep. No associations with subjective sleepiness were observed.ConclusionsIn a large sample of community-dwelling men, OSA was significantly associated with increased EEG power and EEG slowing predominantly in REM sleep, independent of insomnia. Further study is required to assess if REM EEG slowing related to nocturnal hypoxemia is more sensitive than standard PSG indices or sleepiness in predicting cognitive decline.

Abstract
Neurovascular coupling, cerebrovascular remodeling and hemodynamic changes are critical to brain function, and dysregulated in neuropathologies such as brain tumors. Interrogating these phenomena in freely behaving animals requires a portable microscope with multiple optical contrast mechanisms. Therefore, we developed a miniaturized microscope with: a fluorescence (FL) channel for imaging neural activity (e.g., GCaMP) or fluorescent cancer cells (e.g., 9L-GFP); an intrinsic optical signal (IOS) channel for imaging hemoglobin absorption (i.e., cerebral blood volume); and a laser speckle contrast (LSC) channel for imaging perfusion (i.e., cerebral blood flow). Following extensive validation, we demonstrate the microscope’s capabilities via experiments in unanesthetized murine brains that include: (i) multi-contrast imaging of neurovascular changes following auditory stimulation; (ii) wide-area tonotopic mapping; (iii) EEG-synchronized imaging during anesthesia recovery; and (iv) microvascular connectivity mapping over the life-cycle of a brain tumor. This affordable, flexible, plug-and-play microscope heralds a new era in functional imaging of freely behaving animals. Measuring multiple neurophysiologic variables usually requires bulky benchtop optical systems and working with anesthetized animals. Here the authors present a miniature portable microscope for neurovascular imaging in awake rodents, combining fluorescence, intrinsic optical signals and laser speckle contrast.

Abstract
Sleep is characterized by coordinated cortical and cardiac oscillations reflecting communication between the central (CNS) and autonomic (ANS) nervous systems. Here, we review fluctuations in ANS activity in association with CNS-defined sleep stages and cycles, and with phasic cortical events during sleep (e.g., arousals, K-complexes). Recent novel analytic methods reveal a dynamic organization of integrated physiological networks during sleep and indicate how multiple factors (e.g., sleep structure, age, sleep disorders) affect "CNS-ANS coupling". However, these data are mostly correlational and there is a lack of clarity of the underlying physiology, making it challenging to interpret causality and direction of coupling. Experimental manipulations (e.g., evoking K-complexes or arousals) provide information on the precise temporal sequence of cortical-cardiac activity, and are useful for investigating physiological pathways underlying CNS-ANS coupling. With the emergence of new analytical approaches and a renewed interest in ANS and CNS communication during sleep, future work may reveal novel insights into sleep and cardiovascular interactions during health and disease, in which coupling could be adversely impacted.

Abstract
Childhood trauma is known to be related to emotional problems, quantitative electroencephalography (EEG) indices, and heart rate variability (HRV) indices in adulthood, whereas directions among these factors have not been reported yet. This study aimed to evaluate pathway models in young and healthy adults: (1) one with physiological factors first and emotional problems later in adulthood as results of childhood trauma and (2) one with emotional problems first and physiological factors later. A total of 103 non-clinical volunteers were included. Self-reported psychological scales, including the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ), State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, Beck Depression Inventory, and Affective Lability Scale were administered. For physiological evaluation, EEG record was performed during resting eyes closed condition in addition to the resting-state HRV, and the quantitative power analyses of eight EEG bands and three HRV components were calculated in the frequency domain. After a normality test, Pearson's correlation analysis to make path models and path analyses to examine them were conducted. The CTQ score was significantly correlated with depression, state and trait anxiety, affective lability, and HRV low-frequency (LF) power. LF power was associated with beta2 (18-22 Hz) power that was related to affective lability. Affective lability was associated with state anxiety, trait anxiety, and depression. Based on the correlation and the hypothesis, two models were composed: a model with pathways from CTQ score to affective lability, and a model with pathways from CTQ score to LF power. The second model showed significantly better fit than the first model (AICmodel1 = 63.403 > AICmodel2 = 46.003), which revealed that child trauma could affect emotion, and then physiology. The specific directions of relationships among emotions, the EEG, and HRV in adulthood after childhood trauma was discussed.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) results in significantly impaired cognitive functioning and increased daytime sleepiness in some patients leading to increased risk of motor vehicle and workplace accidents and reduced productivity. Clinicians often face difficulty in identifying which patients are at risk of neurobehavioural dysfunction due to wide inter-individual variability, and disparity between symptoms and conventional metrics of disease severity such as the apnea hypopnea index. Quantitative electroencephalogram (EEG) measures are determinants of awake neurobehavioural function in healthy subjects. However, the potential value of quantitative EEG (qEEG) measurements as biomarkers of neurobehavioural function in patients with OSA has not been examined. This review summarises the existing literature examining qEEG in OSA patients including changes in brain activity during wake and sleep states, in relation to daytime sleepiness, cognitive impairment and OSA treatment. It will speculate on the mechanisms which may underlie changes in EEG activity and discuss the potential utility of qEEG as a clinically useful predictor of neurobehavioural function in OSA.

Abstract
This work introduces a framework to study the network formed by the autonomic component of heart rate variability (cardiac processη) and the amplitude of the different electroencephalographic waves (brain processes δ, θ, α, σ, β) during sleep. The framework exploits multivariate linear models to decompose the predictability of any given target process into measures of self-, causal and interaction predictability reflecting respectively the information retained in the process and related to its physiological complexity, the information transferred from the other source processes, and the information modified during the transfer according to redundant or synergistic interaction between the sources. The framework is here applied to theη,δ,θ,α,σ,βtime series measured from the sleep recordings of eight severe sleep apnoea-hypopnoea syndrome (SAHS) patients studied before and after long-term treatment with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy, and 14 healthy controls. Results show that the full and self-predictability of η, δ and θ decreased significantly in SAHS compared with controls, and were restored with CPAP forδandθbut not forη The causal predictability of η and δ occurred through significantly redundant source interaction during healthy sleep, which was lost in SAHS and recovered after CPAP. These results indicate that predictability analysis is a viable tool to assess the modifications of complexity and causality of the cerebral and cardiac processes induced by sleep disorders, and to monitor the restoration of the neuroautonomic control of these processes during long-term treatment.

Abstract
Measurement of sleep microarchitecture and neural oscillations is an increasingly popular technique for quantifying EEG sleep activity. Many studies have examined sleep spindle oscillations in sleep-disordered adults; however reviews of this literature are scarce. As such, our overarching aim was to critically review experimental studies examining sleep spindle activity between adults with and without different sleep disorders. Articles were obtained using a systematic methodology with a priori criteria. Thirty-seven studies meeting final inclusion criteria were reviewed, with studies grouped across three categories: insomnia, hypersomnias, and sleep-related movement disorders (including parasomnias). Studies of patients with insomnia and sleep-disordered breathing were more abundant relative to other diagnoses. All studies were cross-sectional. Studies were largely inconsistent regarding spindle activity differences between clinical and nonclinical groups, with some reporting greater or less activity, while many others reported no group differences. Stark inconsistencies in sample characteristics (e.g., age range and diagnostic criteria) and methods of analysis (e.g., spindle bandwidth selection, visual detection versus digital filtering, absolute versus relative spectral power, and NREM2 versus NREM3) suggest a need for greater use of event-based detection methods and increased research standardization. Hypotheses regarding the clinical and empirical implications of these findings, and suggestions for potential future studies, are also discussed.

Abstract
Sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) is prevalent in individuals and recently, there are many studies focus on using simple and efficient methods for SAS detection instead of polysomnography. However, not much work has been done on using nonlinear behavior of the electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. The purpose of this study is to find a novel and simpler method for detecting apnea patients and to quantify nonlinear characteristics of the sleep apnea. 30 min EEG scaling exponents that quantify power-law correlations were computed using detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA) and compared between six SAS and six healthy subjects during sleep. The mean scaling exponents were calculated every 30 s and 360 control values and 360 apnea values were obtained. These values were compared between the two groups and support vector machine (SVM) was used to classify apnea patients. Significant difference was found between EEG scaling exponents of the two groups (p < 0.001). SVM was used and obtained high and consistent recognition rate: average classification accuracy reached 95.1% corresponding to the sensitivity 93.2% and specificity 98.6%. DFA of EEG is an efficient and practicable method and is helpful clinically in diagnosis of sleep apnea.

Abstract
This article reports on a comparative study to identify electroencephalography (EEG) signals during motor imagery (MI) for motor area EEG and all-channels EEG in the brain–computer interface (BCI) application. In this paper, we present two algorithms: CC-LS-SVM and CC-LR for MI tasks classification. The CC-LS-SVM algorithm combines the cross-correlation (CC) technique and the least square support vector machine (LS-SVM). The CC-LR algorithm assembles the CC technique and binary logistic regression (LR) model. These two algorithms are implemented on the motor area EEG and the all-channels EEG to investigate how well they perform and also to test which area EEG is better for the MI classification. These two algorithms are also compared with some existing methods which reveal their competitive performance during classification. Results on both datasets, IVa and IVb from BCI Competition III, show that the CC-LS-SVM algorithm performs better than the CC-LR algorithm on both the motor area EEG and the all-channels EEG. The results also demonstrate that the CC-LS-SVM algorithm performs much better for the all-channels EEG than for the motor area EEG. Furthermore, the LS-SVM-based approach can correctly identify the discriminative MI tasks, demonstrating the algorithm's superiority in classification performance over some existing methods.

Abstract
Motor imagery (MI) tasks classification provides an important basis for designing brain-computer interface (BCI) systems. If the MI tasks are reliably distinguished through identifying typical patterns in electroencephalography (EEG) data, a motor disabled people could communicate with a device by composing sequences of these mental states. In our earlier study, we developed a cross-correlation based logistic regression (CC-LR) algorithm for the classification of MI tasks for BCI applications, but its performance was not satisfactory. This study develops a modified version of the CC-LR algorithm exploring a suitable feature set that can improve the performance. The modified CC-LR algorithm uses the C3 electrode channel (in the international 10-20 system) as a reference channel for the cross-correlation (CC) technique and applies three diverse feature sets separately, as the input to the logistic regression (LR) classifier. The present algorithm investigates which feature set is the best to characterize the distribution of MI tasks based EEG data. This study also provides an insight into how to select a reference channel for the CC technique with EEG signals considering the anatomical structure of the human brain. The proposed algorithm is compared with eight of the most recently reported well-known methods including the BCI III Winner algorithm. The findings of this study indicate that the modified CC-LR algorithm has potential to improve the identification performance of MI tasks in BCI systems. The results demonstrate that the proposed technique provides a classification improvement over the existing methods tested.

Abstract
Sleep apnea–hypopnea syndrome (SAHS) is a serious sleep disorder, and snoring is one of its earliest and most consistent symptoms. We propose a new methodology for identifying two distinct types of snores: the so-called non-regular and regular snores. Respiratory sound signals from 34 subjects with different ranges of Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI = 3.7–109.9 h−1) were acquired. A total number of 74,439 snores were examined. The time interval between regular snores in short segments of the all night recordings was analyzed. Severe SAHS subjects show a shorter time interval between regular snores (p = 0.0036, AHI cp: 30 h−1) and less dispersion on the time interval features during all sleep. Conversely, lower intra-segment variability (p = 0.006, AHI cp: 30 h−1) is seen for less severe SAHS subjects. Features derived from the analysis of time interval between regular snores achieved classification accuracies of 88.2 % (with 90 % sensitivity, 75 % specificity) and 94.1 % (with 94.4 % sensitivity, 93.8 % specificity) for AHI cut-points of severity of 5 and 30 h−1, respectively. The features proved to be reliable predictors of the subjects’ SAHS severity. Our proposed method, the analysis of time interval between snores, provides promising results and puts forward a valuable aid for the early screening of subjects suspected of having SAHS.

Abstract
The diagnosis of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) usually relies on the analysis of complex polysomnographic measurements performed in specialized sleep centers. Automatic signal analysis is a promising approach to reduce the diagnostic effort. This paper addresses SDB and sleep assessment solely based on the analysis of a single-channel ECG recorded overnight by a set of signal analysis modules. The methodology of QRS detection, SDB analysis, calculation of ECG-derived respiration curves, and estimation of a sleep pattern is described in detail. SDB analysis detects specific cyclical variations of the heart rate by correlation analysis of a signal pattern and the heart rate curve. It was tested with 35 SDB-annotated ECGs from the Apnea-ECG Database, and achieved a diagnostic accuracy of 80.5%. To estimate sleep pattern, spectral parameters of the heart rate are used as stage classifiers. The reliability of the algorithm was tested with 18 ECGs extracted from visually scored polysomnographies of the SIESTA database; 57.7% of all 30 s epochs were correctly assigned by the algorithm. Although promising, these results underline the need for further testing in larger patient groups with different underlying diseases.
