Abstract: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a dementia that affects a large contingent of the elderly population characterized by the presence of neurofibrillary tangles and senile plaques. Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a non-degenerative injury caused by an external mechanical force. One of the main causes of TBI is diffuse axonal injury (DAI), promoted by acceleration-deceleration mechanisms.ObjectiveTo understand the electroencephalographic differences in functional mechanisms between AD and DAI groups.MethodsThe study i… Show more

“…Nevertheless, this result should be interpreted with caution, as the detection of %PPI impairments on the same electrodes does not directly imply that deficits occur in the same brain structures for both patient groups. While EEG is recorded with high temporal resolution and can be considered a neuroimaging tool, and with some advanced techniques being even able to detecting source localization of brain signals [ 96 , 97 ], it still displays a lower spatial resolution than other techniques such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positrons emission tomography (PET).…”

“…The frontal lobe is compromised in the moderate stage of Alzheimer's disease. The occipital lobe is compromised during the acute stage of Alzheimer's disease [90]. The brain states that form during the transition from safe to AD have been studied using a variety of entropy approaches.…”
