We studied whether electroencephalography (EEG)-derived measures of brain oscillatory activity are related to clinical progression in nondemented, amyloid positive subjects. We included 205 nondemented amyloid positive subjects (63 subjective cognitive decline [SCD]; 142 mild cognitive impairment [MCI]) with a baseline resting-state EEG data and ≥1-year follow-up. Peak frequency and relative power of 4 frequency bands were calculated. Relationships between normalized EEG measures and time to clinical progression (conversion from SCD to MCI/dementia or from MCI to dementia) were analyzed using Cox proportional hazard models. One hundred eight (53%) subjects clinically progressed after 2.1 (IQR 1.3-3.0) years. In the total sample, none of the EEG spectral measures were significant predictors. Stratified for baseline diagnosis, we found that in SCD patients higher delta and theta power (HR [95% CI] = 1.7 [1.0-2.7] resp. 2.3 [1.2-4.4]), and lower alpha power and peak frequency (HR [95% CI] = 0.5 [0.3-1.0] resp. 0.6 [0.4-1.0]) were associated with clinical progression over time. In amyloid positive subjects with normal cognition, slowing of oscillatory brain activity is related to clinical progression.
我们研究了源自脑电图(EEG)的脑振荡活动测量指标是否与非痴呆、淀粉样蛋白阳性受试者的临床进展相关。我们纳入了205名非痴呆淀粉样蛋白阳性受试者(63名主观认知下降[SCD];142名轻度认知障碍[MCI]),他们有基线静息态EEG数据且随访时间≥1年。计算了4个频段的峰值频率和相对功率。使用Cox比例风险模型分析了标准化EEG测量指标与临床进展时间(从SCD转换为MCI/痴呆或从MCI转换为痴呆)之间的关系。108名(53%)受试者在2.1(四分位间距1.3 - 3.0)年后出现临床进展。在总样本中,没有EEG频谱测量指标是显著的预测因素。按基线诊断分层后,我们发现,在SCD患者中,较高的δ波和θ波功率(风险比[95%置信区间]分别为1.7[1.0 - 2.7]和2.3[1.2 - 4.4]),以及较低的α波功率和峰值频率(风险比[95%置信区间]分别为0.5[0.3 - 1.0]和0.6[0.4 - 1.0])与随时间的临床进展相关。在认知正常的淀粉样蛋白阳性受试者中,脑振荡活动减慢与临床进展相关。
