Estudo da coerência do eletrencefalograma na banda de frequência alfa em indivíduos adultos normais: resultados preliminares em 10 casos

Abstract: RESUMO -A coerência espectral inter-hemisférica do eletrencefalograma da região occipital do escalpo (eletrodos O1 e O2) foi estimada usando a transformada rápida de Fourier. As médias de coerências na banda de freqüência alfa (alfa 1 -8,0 a 10,0 Hz e alfa 2 -10,1 a 12,5 Hz) em indivíduos normais com mais de 50 anos foram comparadas com as obtidas em adultos jovens com idade inferior a 50 anos. Nossos resultados mostraram que não há diferença significativa dos níveis de coerência na banda alfa entre indivíduos… Show more

“…Concerning the inter-hemispheric coherence value found in the present study for each age bracket of the sample, no significant differences were observed between the 20-29 year, 30-39 year, and 40-49 year age groups. For the 20-50 year age group, EEG spectral characteristics tend to change little, in contrast to both younger (under 10 years) and elderly (over 60 years) groups, according to previous studies in our setting [17][18] . Marozi et al 19 , in an evolutive study, found increased coherence in the frontal region across all bands, except beta, in a population of 46 students followed for 3 years.…”

“…Variação na medida de coerência sugere uma evidência funcional da ocorrência de co-ativação entre duas áreas cort i c a i s 1 . Em especial, a diminuição da coerência seria um indicativo de especialização de d e t e rminadas regiões corticais, o que se traduz em a p re n d i z a g e m 2 .…”

“…Electroencephalographic variables have been analyzed regarding their strict relation with motor learning processes 10 . Coherence, defined as spectral power covariance among different brain areas, must receive attention, since it verifies the occurrence of co-activaion between two cortical areas 12 . In other words, coherence measures the correlation between pairs of signals as a frequency function [11][12][13] .…”
