Abnormal cortical sources of resting state electroencephalographic rhythms in single treatment-naïve HIV individuals: A statistical z-score index

Bibliometric Analysis of Quantitative Electroencephalogram Research in Neuropsychiatric Disorders From 2000 to 2021

“…In the study of pathological mechanisms underlying AD, cluster 8 “schizophrenia” showed that there were similar QEEG characteristics between AD and schizophrenia ( 40 – 42 ) and that schizophrenia was associated with an elevated risk of developing AD ( 43 ), which suggested that the pathological mechanisms of these two diseases may be related. The co-cited references of cluster 10 “human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)” indicated that cortical source mapping by low-resolution brain electromagnetic source tomography (LORETA) of resting state EEG rhythms could characterize neurodegenerative disorders-induced cognitive impairment, such as Parkinson's disease related dementia (PDD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) ( 44 , 45 ), while the citing documents in this cluster showed that HIV research also applied LORETA in evaluating the cognitive functions in patients with HIV ( 46 , 47 ). In the study of AD diagnosis, cluster 9 “Alzheimer's disease” indicated that QEEG can accurately differentiate the stage of AD ( 48 – 51 ).…”

The Intra and Extra Cranial Veins in Relationship with Chronic Migraine: Electroencephalogram Modifications Induced by Balloon Venoplasty

“…In this research, we use the electroencephalogram as a bíomarker of brain function in people with CM. A previous research has used this non-invasive method to define the concept of brain health (Babiloni C, 2016) [25].…”

EEG event related potentials in sustained, focused and divided attention tasks: Potential biomarkers for cognitive impairment in HIV patients

“… Fernández-Cruz and Fellows (2017) summarized a systematic review of such studies published between 1996 and 2016. Across studies, EEG/ERP measures were associated with cognitive test scores, and several longitudinal studies ( Babiloni et al, 2015 , 2016a , 2016b ) suggested that after successful treatment, EEG metrics shifted toward values typically observed in healthy participants. Two primary findings were consistent across all reviewed studies: First, a significant reduction in EEG alpha power was observed for HIV groups recorded during resting state under both eyes open and eyes closed condition ( Babiloni et al, 2014 , 2015 , 2016a , 2016b ), and during auditory oddball task ( Polich et al 2000 ).…”

Second, HIV groups exhibited decreased amplitude and increased latency of the P300 and the Late Positive Potential (LPP) components ( Polich et al, 2000 ; Polich and Basho, 2002 ; Chao et al, 2004 ; Bauer, 2011 ; Olichney et al, 2011 ; Papaliagkas et al, 2011 ).…”

“…Since EEG reflects postsynaptic currents directly, EEG-based measures such as event related potentials (ERPs) show promise in helping track subtle neuropathological changes associated with cognitive decline. These measures can be used to assess the efficacy of novel interventions and benefit the overall clinical management of HIV patients ( Picton et al, 2000 ; Clifford, 2008 ; Babiloni et al, 2016b , 2016a ). For example, studies suggest that ERPs could reveal early functional abnormalities in HIV patients before they become apparent in clinical assessments or structural MRI ( Comi et al, 1996 ; Polich et al, 2000 ; Fernández-Cruz and Fellows, 2017 ).…”
