The Neural Basis of the Effect of Transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation on Emotion Regulation Related Brain Regions: An rs-fMRI Study

The Neural Basis of the Effect of Transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation on Emotion Regulation Related Brain Regions: An rs-fMRI Study 150 150 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)
Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) is a promising neurostimulation approach for emotion regulation. This research aimed to clarify the underlying neural basis responsible for taVNS’s impact on emotional regulation… read more

Characterizing Autism Spectrum Disorder Through Fusion of Local Cortical Activation and Global Functional Connectivity Using Game-Based Stimuli and a Mobile EEG System

Characterizing Autism Spectrum Disorder Through Fusion of Local Cortical Activation and Global Functional Connectivity Using Game-Based Stimuli and a Mobile EEG System 150 150 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)

The deficit in social interaction skills among individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is strongly influenced by personal experiences and social environments. Neuroimaging studies have previously highlighted the link between…

EEG-Based Brain Functional Network Analysis for Differential Identification of Dementia-Related Disorders and Their Onset

EEG-Based Brain Functional Network Analysis for Differential Identification of Dementia-Related Disorders and Their Onset 150 150 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)
Diagnosing and treating dementia, including mild cognitive impairment (MCI), is challenging due to diverse disease types and overlapping symptoms. Early MCI detection is vital as it can precede dementia, yet… read more

Topological Network Analysis of Early Alzheimer’s Disease Based on Resting-State EEG

Author(s)3: Feng Duan, Zihao Huang, Zhe Sun, Yu Zhang, Qibin Zhao, Andrzej Cichocki, Zhenglu Yang, Jordi Solé-Casals
Topological Network Analysis of Early Alzheimer’s Disease Based on Resting-State EEG 1000 370 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)
Previous studies made progress in the early diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) using electroencephalography (EEG) without considering EEG connectivity. To fill this gap, we explored significant differences between early AD patients and controls based on frequency domain and spatial properties using functional connectivity in mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and mild AD datasets. read more
