Dynamics of parkinsonian oscillations mediated by transmission delays in a mean-field model of the basal ganglia by Atefeh Asadi, Mojtaba Madadi Asl, Mojtaba Madadi Asl, Alireza Valizadeh, Alireza Valizadeh, Matjaž Perc, Matjaž Perc, Matjaž Perc, Matjaž Perc, Matjaž Perc

“…In PD condition, however, transmission delays crucially contribute to the emergence of abnormal alpha (8–13 Hz) and beta band (13–30 Hz) oscillations, suggesting that delays play an important role in abnormal rhythmogenesis in the parkinsonian BG.DiscussionOur findings indicate that in addition to the strength of connections within and between the BG nuclei, oscillatory dynamics of the parkinsonian BG may also be influenced by inter-population transmission delays. …”

A theory of working memory without consciousness or sustained activity by Darinka Trübutschek, Sébastien Marti, Andrés Ojeda, Jean-Rémi King, Yuanyuan Mi, Misha Tsodyks, Stanislas Dehaene

“…Conscious perception and conscious working memory were characterized by similar signatures: a sustained desynchronization in the alpha/beta band over frontal cortex, and a decodable representation of target location in posterior sensors. …”

The Effects of Sensory Threshold Somatosensory Electrical Stimulation on Users With Different MI-BCI Performance by Long Chen, Lei Zhang, Zhongpeng Wang, Bin Gu, Xin Zhang, Dong Ming, Dong Ming

“…Moreover, we found that st-SES had an effect on the functional connectivity of the fronto-parietal network in the alpha band of Low Performers and the beta band of High Performers, respectively. Our results demonstrated that somatosensory input based on st-SES was only beneficial for sensorimotor cortical activation and MI-BCI performance in the Low Performers, but not in the High Performers. …”

Abnormal Brain Topological Structure of Mild Depression During Visual Search Processing Based on EEG Signals by Shuting Sun, Liangliang Liu, Xuexiao Shao, Chang Yan, Xiaowei Li, Bin Hu

“…Patients with MD showed significantly lower local efficiency and clustering coefficient, destroyed community structure of frontal lobe and parietal-occipital lobe, frontal asymmetry, especially in beta band. In addition, the average value of long-distance connections between left frontal and right parietal-occipital lobes presented significant correlation with depressive symptoms. …”

Intermuscular Coherence during Quiet Standing in Sub-Acute Patients after Stroke: An Exploratory Study by Eiji Yamanaka, Ryosuke Goto, Michiyuki Kawakami, Takaki Tateishi, Kunitsugu Kondo, Ippei Nojima

“…The unilateral synergistic SL–MG coherence in the beta band was significantly greater in the non-paretic limb than in the paretic limb (<i>p</i> = 0.017), while unilateral antagonist TA–MG coherence in the delta band was significantly greater in the paretic limb than in the non-paretic limb (<i>p</i> < 0.01). …”

The impact of internal-generated contextual clues on EFL vocabulary learning: insights from EEG by Weichen Zhou, Xia Wu

“…Furthermore, EEG data revealed that learners expended greater cognitive resources and mental effort in semantically integrating the meaning of words when they self-created contextual clues, as evidenced by stronger alpha and beta-band oscillations. Moreover, the stronger alpha-band oscillations and lower inter-subject correlation (ISC) among learners suggested that the generative task of creating context enhanced their top-down attentional control mechanisms and selective visual processing when learning vocabulary from videos. …”

Modulation of beta bursts in the subthalamic nucleus predicts motor performance by Torrecillos, F, Tinkhauser, G, Fischer, P, Green, A, Aziz, T, Foltynie, T, Limousin, P, Zrinzo, L, Ashkan, K, Brown, P, Tan, H

“…Considerable evidence suggests a role of beta-band oscillations in voluntary movements. However, most of the studies linking beta power to motor performance are based on data averaged across trials that ignore the fast dynamics of oscillatory activity and trial-to-trial variations in motor responses. …”

Spectral slowing in chronic stroke reflects abnormalities in both periodic and aperiodic neural dynamics by Phillip R. Johnston, Anthony R. McIntosh, Jed A. Meltzer

“…However, genuine oscillatory activity at higher frequencies was also found to be abnormal, with patients showing alpha slowing and diminished oscillatory activity in the beta band. These aperiodic and periodic abnormalities were found to covary, and could be detected even in the un-lesioned hemisphere, however they were most prominent in perilesional tissue, where their magnitude was predictive of cognitive impairment. …”
