description | Background: The differences in the resting state spectral power and functional connectivity of the default mode network between people with migraine without aura (MwoA) and its subgroups differentiated by frequency (episodic migraine (EM) and chronic migraine (CM)) and healthy controls (HC) were investigated using magnetoencephalography. Methods: In the resting state, the topological spatial structure of the brain in 33 MwoA patients and 22 HC was first studied using magnetoencephalography, followed by probing the neuroelectrical activity of 17 CM and 16 EM patients, to identify damage to their default mode network (DMN). The techniques used to investigate both spectral power and functional connectivity were minimum-paradigm estimation combined with Welch’s technique and corrected amplitude envelope correlation. Results: The differences between MwoA and its subgroups (CM and EM) and HC based on spectral power were mainly in the delta, theta, and alpha bands, while the differences in functional connectivity were primarily in the delta, alpha, and beta bands. In the delta and theta bands, the spectral power of MwoA and its subgroups (CM and EM) was higher than in the HC group. The spectral power of MwoA and its subgroups (CM and EM) was lower in the alpha band. In terms of functional connectivity, the corrected amplitude envelope correlation of MwoA and its subgroups (CM and EM) was lower than the HC group in the bands with spectral differences. People with EM and CM differed in the spectral power in the left medial prefrontal cortex and the right lateral temporal cortex in the alpha band, where correlation analysis and logistic regression analysis showed that the intensity of the spectral power of the left medial prefrontal cortex was negatively correlated with headache frequency. Conclusions: The spectral power of the left medial prefrontal cortex in the alpha band may serve as a biomarker that is associated with the number of monthly headache attacks and may be a potential neuromodulatory target for controlling migraine chronicity. |
