چکیده

The interhemispheric coherence of electroencephalogram was studied in a group of healthy individuals in the age range of 20-50 years. The results showed higher coherence for all bands in parietal regions (P3-P4). It was observed that individuals with high values of coherence for a certain frequency band in a pair of electrodes also showed high values of coherence for other bands across other pairs of electrodes. No significant influence on interhemispheric coherence was found for age, gender or hand dominance.

Do Horizontal Saccadic Eye Movements Increase Interhemispheric Coherence? Investigation of a Hypothesized Neural Mechanism Underlying EMDR

Series of horizontal saccadic eye movements (EMs) are known to improve episodic memory retrieval in healthy adults and to facilitate the processing of traumatic memories in eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy. Several authors have proposed that EMs achieve these effects by increasing the functional connectivity of the two brain hemispheres, but direct evidence for this ...

Reduced interhemispheric coherence in dyslexic adults.

INTRODUCTION Developmental dyslexia has been associated with reduced interhemispheric neural connectivity in children. The present study investigated functional interhemispheric connectivity in male dyslexic adults. METHODS A group of 19 dyslexic men were compared to a group of 15 controls on interhemispheric coherence of the dominant frequency in the power spectrum during a visuo-spatial att...

Regional networks underlying interhemispheric connectivity: an EEG and DTI study in healthy ageing and amnestic mild cognitive impairment.

Interhemispheric coherence derived from electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings is a measure of functional interhemispheric connectivity. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) determines the integrity of subcortical fiber tracts. We studied the pattern of subcortical fiber tracts underlying interhemispheric coherence and its alteration in 16 subjects with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (MCI), an at ...

Electrophysiological correlates of vigilance during a continuous performance test in healthy adults.

The present study evaluated patterns of electrophysiological activity associated with sustained vigilance in healthy adults. Quantitative electroencephalographs (QEEG) were recorded during the performance of a Continuous Performance Test (CPT). Participants were divided into low and high vigilance groups based upon their reaction time changes between the early and late portions of the CPT. Cohe...
