The human brain is a complex system, whose activity exhibits flexible and continuous reorganization across space and time. The decomposition of whole-brain recordings into harmonic modes has revealed a repertoire of gradient-like activity patterns associated with distinct brain functions. However, the way these activity patterns are expressed over time with their changes in various brain states remains unclear. Here, we investigate healthy participants taking the serotonergic psychedelic -dimethyltryptamine (DMT) with the Harmonic Decomposition of Spacetime (HADES) framework that can characterize how different harmonic modes defined in space are expressed over time. HADES demonstrates significant decreases in contributions across most low-frequency harmonic modes in the DMT-induced brain state. When normalizing the contributions by condition (DMT and non-DMT), we detect a decrease specifically in the second functional harmonic, which represents the uni- to transmodal functional hierarchy of the brain, supporting the leading hypothesis that functional hierarchy is changed in psychedelics. Moreover, HADES' dynamic spacetime measures of fractional occupancy, life time and latent space provide a precise description of the significant changes of the spacetime hierarchical organization of brain activity in the psychedelic state.
人类大脑是一个复杂的系统,其活动在空间和时间上呈现出灵活且持续的重组。将全脑记录分解为谐波模式揭示了一系列与不同脑功能相关的梯度样活动模式。然而,这些活动模式在不同脑状态下随时间的表达方式及其变化仍不清楚。在此,我们使用时空谐波分解(HADES)框架对服用血清素能致幻剂——二甲基色胺(DMT)的健康参与者进行研究,该框架能够描述在空间中定义的不同谐波模式如何随时间表达。HADES表明,在DMT诱导的脑状态下,大多数低频谐波模式的贡献显著降低。当按条件(DMT和非DMT)对贡献进行归一化时,我们特别检测到第二功能谐波的降低,该谐波代表大脑从单模态到跨模态的功能层次结构,支持了致幻剂会改变功能层次结构这一主要假设。此外,HADES对分数占有率、寿命和潜在空间的动态时空测量,精确描述了致幻状态下脑活动时空层次组织的显著变化。
