Analysis of magnetoencephalography recordings from Alzheimer's disease patients using embedding entropies

Abstract: The aim of this study was to examine the magnetoencephalography (MEG) background activity in Alzheimer's disease (AD) using three embedding entropies: approximate entropy (ApEn), sample entropy (SampEn), and fuzzy entropy (FuzzyEn). These three methods measure the time series regularity. Five minutes of recording were acquired with a 148-channel whole-head magnetometer from 36 AD patients and 24 elderly control subjects. Our results showed that MEG activity was more regular in AD patients than in controls. Add… Show more

“…Gómez et al [ 108 , 109 ] analyzed MEG complexity based on cross-approximate entropy, which revealed decreases that indicated better synchronization in AD and MCI patients than in NC subjects. Using the ApEn, SampEn, and FuzzyEn methods to analyze MEG signals at 148 locations, it was found that the entropy in AD patients was lower than that in controls, suggesting that this neurological disorder may be accompanied by a regular increase in MEG activity.…”

“…Compared to EEG, MEG is less distorted by the resistive properties of the skull, skin, and cerebral fluid, which act as a low pass filter. Several studies have been performed on AD and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) using MEG [ 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 ].…”
