Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims 1) To analyse differences in resting-state electroencephalogram (rs-EEG) spectral features of Parkinson's Disease (PD) and healthy subjects (non-PD) using Functional Data Analysis (FDA) and 2) To explore, in four independent cohorts, the external validity and reproducibility of the findings using both epoch-to-epoch FDA and averaged-epochs approach. METHODS We included 169 subjects (85 non-PD; 84 PD) from four centres. Rs-EEG signals were preprocessed with a combination of automated pipelines. Sensor-level relative power spectral density (PSD), dominant frequency (DF), and DF variability (DFV) features were extracted. Differences in each feature were compared between PD and non-PD on averaged epochs and using FDA to model the epoch-to-epoch change of each feature. RESULTS For averaged epochs, significantly higher theta relative PSD in PD was found across all datasets. Also, higher pre-alpha relative PSD was observed in three of four datasets in PD patients. For FDA, similar findings were achieved in theta, but all datasets showed consistently significant posterior pre-alpha differences across multiple epochs. CONCLUSIONS Increased generalised theta, with posterior pre-alpha relative PSD, was the most reproducible finding in PD. SIGNIFICANCE Rs-EEG theta and pre-alpha findings are generalisable in PD. FDA constitutes a reliable and powerful tool to analyse epoch-to-epoch the rs-EEG.

Abstract
Resting-state EEG (rs-EEG) has been demonstrated to aid in Parkinson's disease (PD) diagnosis. In particular, the power spectral density (PSD) of low-frequency bands (δ and θ) and high-frequency bands (α and β) has been shown to be significantly different in patients with PD as compared to subjects without PD (non-PD). However, rs-EEG feature extraction and the interpretation thereof can be time-intensive and prone to examiner variability. Machine learning (ML) has the potential to automatize the analysis of rs-EEG recordings and provides a supportive tool for clinicians to ease their workload. In this work, we use rs-EEG recordings of 84 PD and 85 non-PD subjects pooled from four datasets obtained at different centers. We propose an end-to-end pipeline consisting of preprocessing, extraction of PSD features from clinically-validated frequency bands, and feature selection. Following, we assess the classification ability of the features via ML algorithms to stratify between PD and non-PD subjects. Further, we evaluate the effect of feature harmonization, given the multi-center nature of the datasets. Our validation results show, on average, an improvement in PD detection ability (69.6% vs. 75.5% accuracy) by logistic regression when harmonizing the features and performing univariate feature selection (k = 202 features). Our final results show an average global accuracy of 72.2% with balanced accuracy results for all the centers included in the study: 60.6%, 68.7%, 77.7%, and 82.2%, respectively.Clinical relevance- We present an end-to-end pipeline to extract clinically relevant features from rs-EEG recordings that can facilitate the analysis and detection of PD. Further, we provide an ML system that shows a good performance in detecting PD, even in the presence of centers with different acquisition protocols. Our results show the relevance of harmonizing features and provide a good starting point for future studies focusing on rs-EEG analysis and multi-center data.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cognitive impairment is a persistent and increasingly reported symptom of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), significantly affecting daily functioning quality. This study aims to evaluate the functional connectivity of the brain network in patients with Parkinson's disease with various severities of cognitive decline using quantitative electroencephalography (EEG) analysis. METHODS Based on the EEG recorded in the resting state, the coherence and phase lag index were calculated to evaluate functional connectivity in 108 patients with Parkinson's disease divided into three groups according to their cognitive condition: dementia due to PD (PD-D), PD and mild cognitive impairment (PD-MCI) and cognitively normal patients (PD-CogN). RESULTS It was found that there were significantly different coherence values in the PD-D group compared to PD-CogN in different frequency bands. In most cases, there was a decrease in coherence in PD-D compared to PD-CogN. The most specific changes were revealed in the theta frequency band in the temporal right-frontal left and temporal right-frontal right regions. In the alpha frequency band, the most significant decreases were shown in the occipital right-frontal left and occipital left-frontal right areas. There were also statistically significant differences in phase lag index between many areas, especially in the theta frequency range. CONCLUSIONS These findings indicate that the functional connectivity patterns of coherence and phase lag index - found in a particular frequency band and region - could become a reliable biomarker for identifying cognitive impairment and differentiating its severity in PD patients.

Abstract
Changes of brain network dynamics reveal variations in macroscopic neural activity patterns in behavioral and cognitive aspects. Quantification and application of changed dynamics in brain functional connectivity networks may contribute to a better understanding of brain diseases, and ultimately provide better prognostic indicators or auxiliary diagnostic tools. At present, most studies are focused on the properties of brain functional connectivity network constructed by sliding window method. However, few studies have explored evidence-based brain network construction algorithms that reflect disease specificity. In this work, we first proposed a novel approach to characterize the spatiotemporal variability of dynamic functional connectivity networks based on electroencephalography (EEG) microstate, and then developed a classification framework for integrating spatiotemporal variability of brain networks to improve early Parkinson's disease (PD) diagnostic performance. The experimental results indicated that compared with the brain network construction method based on conventional sliding window, the proposed method significantly improved the performance of early PD recognition, demonstrating that the dynamic spatiotemporal variability of microstate-based brain networks can reflect the pathological changes in the early PD brain. Furthermore, we observed that the spatiotemporal variability of early PD brain network has a specific distribution pattern in brain regions, which can be quantified as the degree of motor and cognitive impairment, respectively. Our work offers innovative methodological support for future research on brain network, and provides deeper insights into the spatiotemporal interaction patterns of brain activity and their variabilities in early PD.

Abstract
To explore the abnormal brain activity of early Parkinson's disease with mild cognitive impairment (ePD-MCI) patients, the study analyzed the dynamic fluctuation of electroencephalogram (EEG) signals and the dynamic change of information communication between EEG signals of ePD-MCI patients. In this study, we recorded resting-state EEG signals of 30 ePD-MCI patients and 37 early Parkinson's disease without mild cognitive impairment (ePD-nMCI) patients. First, we analyzed the difference of the complexity of EEG signals between the two groups. And we found that the complexity in the ePD-MCI group was significantly higher than that in the ePD-nMCI group. Then, by analyzing the dynamic functional network (DFN) topology based on the optimal sliding-window, we found that the temporal correlation coefficients of ePD-MCI patients were lower in the delta and theta bands than those in the ePD-nMCI patients. The temporal characteristic path length of ePD-MCI patients in the alpha band was higher than that of ePD-nMCI patients. In the theta and alpha bands, the temporal small world degrees of ePD-MCI patients were lower than that of patients with ePD-nMCI. In addition, the functional connectivity strength of ePD-MCI patients affected by cognitive impairment was weaker than that of ePD-nMCI patients, and the stability of dynamic functional connectivity network was decreased. This finding may serve as a biomarker to identify ePD-MCI and contribute to the early intervention treatment of ePD-MCI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine possible associations of hemispheric-regional alpha/theta ratio (α/θ) with neuropsychological test performance in Parkinson's Disease (PD) non-demented patients. METHODS 36 PD were matched to 36 Healthy Controls (HC). The α/θ in eight hemispheric regions was computed from the relative power spectral density of the resting-state quantitative electroencephalogram (qEEG). Correlations between α/θ and performance in several neuropsychological tests were conducted, significant findings were included in a moderation analysis. RESULTS The α/θ in all regions was lower in PD than in HC, with larger effect sizes in the posterior regions. Right parietal, and right and left occipital α/θ had significant positive correlations with performance in Judgement of Line Orientation Test (JLOT) in PD. Adjusted moderation analysis indicated that right, but not left, occipital α/θ influenced the JLOT performance related to PD. CONCLUSIONS Reduction of the occipital α/θ, in particular on the right side, was associated with visuospatial performance impairment in PD. SIGNIFICANCE Visuospatial impairment in PD, which is highly correlated with the subsequent development of dementia, is reflected in α/θ in the right posterior regions. The right occipital α/θ may represent a useful qEEG marker for evaluating the presence of early signs of cognitive decline in PD and the subsequent risk of dementia.

Abstract
Background: Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a stage between expected age-related cognitive decline and dementia. Dementias have been associated with changes in neural oscillations across the frequency spectrum, including the alpha range. Alpha is the most prominent rhythm in human EEG and is best detected during awake resting state (RS). Though several studies measured alpha power and synchronization in MCI, findings have not yet been integrated. Objective: To consolidate findings on power and synchronization of alpha oscillations across stages of cognitive decline. Methods: We included studies published until January 2020 that compared power or functional connectivity between 1) people with MCI and cognitively healthy older adults (OA) or people with a neurodegenerative dementia, and 2) people with progressive and stable MCI. Random-effects meta-analyses were performed when enough data was available. Results: Sixty-eight studies were included in the review. Global RS alpha power was lower in AD than in MCI (ES = –0.30; 95% CI = –0.51, –0.10; k = 6), and in MCI than in OA (ES = –1.49; 95% CI = –2.69, –0.29; k = 5). However, the latter meta-analysis should be interpreted cautiously due to high heterogeneity. The review showed lower RS alpha power in progressive than in stable MCI, and lower task-related alpha reactivity in MCI than in OA. People with MCI had both lower and higher functional connectivity than OA. Publications lacked consistency in MCI diagnosis and EEG measures. Conclusion: Research indicates that RS alpha power decreases with increasing impairment, and could—combined with measures from other frequency bands—become a biomarker of early cognitive decline.
