Introduction Mindfulness and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) modulate brain networks implicated in psychopathology. This study investigated the synergistic effects of concurrent anodal tDCS over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and treadmill walking for Focused Mindfulness (TW-FM) on effective directional brain connectivity for focused mindfulness. Methods...
Entropy analysis of electroencephalographic (EEG) data provides insight into the complexity of neural activity. This study primarily examined whether cannabis use frequency is associated with alterations in multiscale entropy (MSE) in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) and mapped baseline MSE differences across cortical regions. Resting-state EEG was collected from 57 adults: non-users (n = 18),...
Highlights • RBD presents REM sleep without atonia, EEG slowing, impaired functional connectivity, microstructural sleep EEG changes, among others.• During sleep paralysis there is a REM-wake dissociation - an intermediate state between REM and wakefulness, REM sleep or EEG alpha frequencies.• Nightmare disorder shows reduced sleep, increased awakenings, reduced SWS, increased respiratory and...
Highlights • We aimed to detect EEG changes induced by meditative interventions in PTRD subjects.• PTRD subjects exhibited increased gamma activity in the IPL relative to controls.• Changes of delta activity in the precuneus correlated with changes of the QOL scale.
