Vztah elektrofyziologické aktivity a dynamické funkční konektivity rozsáhlých mozkových sítí ve fMRI datech / Relationship between Electrophysiological Activity and Dynamic Functional Connectivity of Large-scale Brain Networks in fMRI Data

Functional brain connectivity is a marker of the brain state. Growing interest in the examination of large-scale brain network functional connectivity dynamics is accompanied by an effort to find the electrophysiological correlates. The commonly used constraints applied to spatial and spectral domains during EEG data analysis may leave part of the neural activity unrecognized. A proposed approach blindly reveals multimodal EEG spectral patterns that are related to the dynamics of the BOLD functional network connectivity. The blind decomposition of EEG spectrogram by Parallel Factor Analysis has been shown to be a useful technique for uncovering patterns of neural activity where each pattern contains three signatures (spatial, temporal, and spectral). The decomposition takes into account the trilinear structure of EEG data, as compared to the standard approaches of electrode averaging, electrode subset selection or using standard frequency bands. The simultaneously acquired BOLD fMRI data were decomposed by Independent Component Analysis. Dynamic functional connectivity was computed on the component’s time series using a sliding window correlation, and functional connectivity network states were then defined based on the values of the correlation coefficients. ANOVA tests were performed to assess the relationships between the dynamics of functional connectivity network states and the fluctuations of EEG spectral patterns. Three patterns related to the dynamics of functional connectivity network states were found. Previous findings revealed a relationship between EEG spectral pattern fluctuations and the hemodynamics of large-scale brain networks. This work suggests that the relationship also exists at the level of functional connectivity dynamics among large-scale brain networks when no standard spatial and spectral constraints are applied on the EEG data.
