ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Electrophysiology and plasma biomarkers are early and non-invasive candidates for Alzheimer's disease detection. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate changes in dynamic functional connectivity measured with magnetoencephalography, associated with the plasma pathology marker p-tau231 in unimpaired adults.METHODS:
73 individuals were included. Static and dynamic functional connectivity were calculated using leakage corrected amplitude envelope correlation. Each source's strength entropy across trials was calculated. A data-driven statistical analysis was performed to find the association between functional connectivity and plasma p-tau231 levels. Regression models were used to assess the influence of other variables over the clusters' connectivity.RESULTS:
Frontotemporal dynamic connectivity positively associated with p-tau231 levels. Linear regression models identified pathological, functional and structural factors that influence dynamic functional connectivity.DISCUSSION:
These results expand previous literature on dynamic functional connectivity in healthy individuals at risk of AD, highlighting its usefulness as an early, non-invasive and more sensitive biomarker.
