Electroacupuncture Alters BCI-Based Brain Network in Stroke Patients.

ABSTRACT: Goal. Stroke patients are usually accompanied by motor dysfunction, which greatly affects daily life. Electroacupuncture is a kind of nondrug therapy that can effectively improve motor function. However, the effect of electroacupuncture is hard to be measured immediately in clinic. This paper is aimed to reveal the instant changes in brain activity of three groups of stroke patients before, during, and after the electroacupuncture treatment by the EEG analysis in the alpha band and beta band. Methods. Seven different functional connectivity indicators including Pearson correlation coefficient, spectral coherence, mutual information, phase locking value, phase lag index, partial directed coherence, and directed transfer function were used to build the BCI-based brain network i
