Measuring transient functional connectivity is an important challenge in electroencephalogram (EEG) research. Here, the rich potential for insightful, discriminative information of brain activity offered by high-temporal resolution is confounded by the inherent noise of the medium and the spurious nature of correlations computed over short temporal windows. We propose a methodology to overcome these problems called filter average short-term (FAST) functional connectivity.

Objective: This systematic review aims to comprehensively capture, analyse, and evaluate the body of evidence that has investigated associations between brain regions/networks and psychotic symptoms in AD.
Methods: The protocol, created according to the PRISMA guidelines, was pre-registered on OSF (https://osf.
Aim: The aim of the study was to investigate the factors that underpin neuropsychiatric symptoms and how they might evolve over time in people with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) dementia.
Background: Neuropsychiatric symptoms are psychiatric and behavioural manifestations that occur in people with AD. These are highly prevalent along the continuum of the disease, including at the stage of MCI, as well as before cognitive decline.
