AI Article Synopsis
- The paper explores how stimulating various acupoints with pulse signals of different frequencies affects brain activity.
- It identifies a method for optimizing acupoint input through experimental setup and analyzes the relationship between meridian points and brain signals.
- Results indicate that 30 Hz intermittent pulse stimulation yields the strongest correlation with the alpha brain wave, suggesting it may lead to positive effects on brain function.
Article Abstract
In this paper, different acupoints are stimulated by using pulse stimulating signals with different frequency. The correlation between input signal from acupoints and output signal from brain band is studied. A method to optimize input of acupoints is obtained by an experiment system. And the dynamic connection between meridian and brain band is identified. Experiment has shown that there exists maximal correlation between the signal of 30 Hz intermittent pulse stimulation and the induced cerebral alpha band. And the 30 Hz intermittent pulse stimulation can induce more beneficial cerebral a band.

Recordings from Parkinson's disease (PD) patients typically show strong beta-band oscillations (13-35Hz), which can be modulated by deep brain stimulation (DBS). While high-frequency DBS (>100Hz) ameliorates motor symptoms and reduces beta activity in basal ganglia and motor cortex, the effects of low-frequency DBS (<30Hz) are less clear. Clarifying these effects is relevant for the debate about the role of beta oscillations in motor slowing, which might be causal or epiphenomenal.

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder with an unclear pathogenesis to date. Neurofeedback (NFB) had shown therapeutic effects in patients with ASD. In this study,we analyzed the brain functional networks of children with ASD and investigated the impact of NFB targeting the beta rhythm training on these networks.

Background: The detection of abnormal brain activity plays an important role in the early diagnosis and treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD). Recent studies have shown that the decomposition of the electroencephalography (EEG) spectrum into periodic and aperiodic components is useful for identifying the drivers of electrophysiologic abnormalities and avoiding individual differences.
Methods: This study aimed to elucidate the pathologic changes in individualized periodic and aperiodic activities and their relationships with the symptoms of MDD.

Introduction: Despite the widespread use of the Movement Assessment Battery for Children, 2nd edition (MABC-2), little is known about the sensitivity or specificity of the individual items to detect probable Developmental Coordination Disorder (p-DCD). This study examined which specific MABC-2 items were most sensitive to identify children with p-DCD and which items would predict p-DCD.
Methods: Based on a large dataset including European and African children aged 3-16 years (n = 4916, typically developing (TD, 49.

Objectives: Our study aimed to compare signal characteristics of subdural electrodes (SDE) and depth stereo EEG placed within a 5-mm vicinity in patients with drug-resistant epilepsy. We report how electrode design and placement collectively affect signal content from a shared source between these electrode types.
Methods: In subjects undergoing invasive intracranial EEG evaluation at a surgical epilepsy center from 2012 to 2018, stereo EEG and SDE electrode contacts placed within a 5-mm vicinity were identified.
