This study aims to assess the prefrontal functional connectivity in elderly subjects with hypertension during the resting state using wavelet coherence analysis of changes in prefrontal tissue oxyhaemoglobin concentrations (Δ[HbO2]) signals measured by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). Continuous recordings of NIRS signals were obtained from the left and right prefrontal lobes in 24 elderly subjects with hypertension (age: 70.7 ± 8.

Continuous recordings of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and ABP signals were obtained from simultaneous measurements in 33 healthy elderly subjects (age: 70.7±7.

Methods: Continuous recordings of NIRS and arterial blood pressure (ABP) signals were obtained from simultaneous measurements in 20 healthy subjects (age: 70.8±5.
The study aims to assess the spontaneous oscillations in elderly subjects based on the wavelet transform of cerebral oxygenation (CO) and arterial blood pressure (ABP) signals. Continuous recordings of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and ABP signals were obtained from simultaneous measurements in 20 young subjects (age: 27.3 ± 7.
