Different Trajectories of Functional Connectivity Captured with Gamma-Event Coupling and Broadband Measures of Electroencephalographic in the Rat Fluid Percussion Injury Model by Rachel Fox, Cesar Santana-Gomez, Mohamad Shamas, Aarja Pavade, Richard Staba, Neil G. Harris

“…Functional connectivity (FC) after traumatic brain injury (TBI) is affected by an altered excitatory-inhibitory balance due to neuronal dysfunction, and the mechanistic changes observed could be reflected differently by contrasting methods. Local gamma event coupling FC (GEC-FC) is believed to represent multiunit fluctuations due to inhibitory dysfunction, and we hypothesized that FC derived from widespread, broadband amplitude signal (BBA-FC) would be different, reflecting broader mechanisms of functional disconnection. …”
