Variations of Resting-State EEG-Based Functional Networks in Brain Maturation From Early Childhood to Adolescence.

ABSTRACT:

Background and purpose

Alterations in human brain functional networks with maturation have been explored extensively in numerous electroencephalography (EEG) and functional magnetic resonance imaging studies. It is known that the age-related changes in the functional networks occurring prior to adulthood deviate from ordinary trajectories of network-based brain maturation across the adult lifespan.

Methods

This study investigated the longitudinal evolution of resting-state EEG-based functional networks from early childhood to adolescence among 212 pediatric patients (age 12.2±3.5 years, range 4.4-17.9) in 6 frequency bands using 8 types of functional connectivity measures in the amplitude, frequency, and phase domains.
