Abstract

Objective: To investigate the changes of phase average wavelength of alpha rhythm in different brain regions of patients with Parkinson’s Disease (PD) during awake period with eyes closed. Methods: This study included 54 patients with PD and 30 normal controls. The PD patients were divided into a PD-cognitive normal group (PD-NC) and a PD-cognitive impairment group (PD-CI) based on Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) scores. The electroencephalography signals were decomposed at different scales using the Gauss continuous wavelet transform method. The phase average wavelength of the ninth scale (corresponding to the alpha rhythm) was extracted using the conditional sampling and phase averaging method. The alpha-band wavelengths of the background rhythm of different leads were compared between groups. Additionally, the correlation between the wavelength of the ninth scale and MMSE and Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) scores in PD patients was analyzed. Results: There were significant differences in phase average wavelength at scale nine in each lead among the three groups (P
