Abstract Introduction Dynamic functional connectivity (DFC) analysis of resting-state fMRI data has been successfully used to track fluctuations in arousal in the human brain. Changes in DFC have also been reported with acute sleep deprivation. Here, we demonstrate that dynamic connectivity states (DCS) previously related to arousal are reproducible, and are associated with individual differences in sustained attention declines after one night of total sleep deprivation. Methods 32 participants underwent two counterbalanced resting-state fMRI scans: during rested wakefulness (RW) and following total sleep deprivation (SD). They also completed the Psychomotor Vigilance Test (PVT), a sustained attention task that is highly sensitive to the effects of sleep loss. SD vulnerability was computed as the decrease in response speed (∆RS) and increase in lapses (∆lapse) in SD compared with RW. Dynamic functional connectivity analysis was conducted on rs-fMRI data. Connectivity matrices were clustered to obtain 5 prototypical DCS. We calculated the proportion of time participants spent in each of these DCS, as well as how often participants transitioned between DCSs. Relationships between SD vulnerability and connectivity metrics were then correlated. Results We recovered two DCS that were highly similar (ρ = .89-.91) to arousal-related DCS observed in previous work (high arousal state (HAS); low arousal state (LAS)). After sleep deprivation, the proportion of time spent in the LAS increased significantly (t29=3.16, p=.0039), while there was no significant change in HAS (t29=-1.43, p=.16). We observed significantly more state transitions in RW compared with SD. Change in LAS and HAS across sleep conditions correlated significantly with SD vulnerability (ΔLASxΔRS: r=-0.64, p<.0001; ΔLASxΔlapse: r=0.43, p=.018; ΔHASxΔRS; r=0.43, p=.019; ΔHASxΔlapse; r=-0.39, p=.033). Finally, Δ%transitions was correlated with ΔRS but not Δlapse. Conclusion This study adds to the evidence that two specific reproducible DCS are robust markers of arousal and attention, and may be useful indicators of SD vulnerability.

Abstract BackgroundCognitive abilities are impaired by sleep deprivation and can be recovered when sufficient sleep is obtained. Changes in alpha-band oscillations are considered to be highly related to sleep deprivation. The effect of sleep deprivation on brain activation and functional connectivity in the resting-state alpha band remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate how sleep deprivation and recovery sleep could change resting-state alpha-band neural oscillations.MethodsIn this study, thirty young, healthy participants obtained approximately 8 h of normal sleep, followed by 36 h of sleep deprivation. On the following recovery night, subjects underwent recovery sleep. Resting-state EEG after normal sleep, sleep deprivation and recovery sleep was recorded. Power spectrum, source localization and functional connectivity analyses were used to investigate the changes in resting-state alpha-band activity after normal sleep, sleep deprivation and recovery sleep.ResultsThe results showed that the global alpha power spectrum decreased and source activation was notably reduced in the precuneus, posterior cingulate cortex, cingulate gyrus, and paracentral lobule after sleep deprivation. Functional connectivity analysis after sleep deprivation showed a weakened functional connectivity pattern in a widespread network with the precuneus and posterior cingulate cortex as the key nodes. Furthermore, the changes caused by sleep deprivation were reversed to a certain extent but not significantly after one night of sleep recovery, which may be due to inadequate time for recovery sleep.ConclusionsIn conclusion, large-scale resting-state alpha-band activation and functional connectivity were weakened after sleep deprivation, and the inhibition of default mode network function with the precuneus and posterior cingulate cortex as the pivotal nodes may be an important cause of cognitive impairment. These findings provide new insight into the physiological response of sleep deprivation and determine how sleep deprivation disrupts brain alpha-band oscillations.

AbstractCognitive abilities are impaired by sleep deprivation and can be recovered when sufficient sleep is obtained. Changes in alpha-band oscillations are considered to be closely related to sleep deprivation. In this study, power spectrum, source localization and functional connectivity analyses were used to investigate the changes in resting-state alpha-band activity after normal sleep, sleep deprivation and recovery sleep. The results showed that the global alpha power spectrum decreased and source activation was notably reduced in the precuneus, posterior cingulate cortex, cingulate gyrus, and paracentral lobule after sleep deprivation.

Purpose: The cognitive effects of total sleep deprivation (TSD) on the brain remain poorly understood. Electroencephalography (EEG) is a very useful tool for detecting spontaneous brain activity in the resting state. Quasi-stable electrical distributions, known as microstates, carry useful information about the dynamics of large-scale brain networks. In this study, microstate analysis was used to study changes in brain activity after 24 h of total sleep deprivation.Participants and Methods: Twenty-seven healthy volunteers were recruited and underwent EEG scans before and after 24 h of TSD. Microstate analysis was applied, and six microstate classes (A–F) were identified. Topographies and temporal parameters of the microstates were compared between the rested wakefulness (RW) and TSD conditions.Results: Microstate class A (a right-anterior to left-posterior orientation of the mapped field) showed lower global explained variance (GEV), frequency of occurrence, and time coverage in TSD than RW, whereas microstate class D (a fronto-central extreme location of the mapped field) displayed higher GEV, frequency of occurrence, and time coverage in TSD compared to RW. Moreover, subjective sleepiness was significantly negatively correlated with the microstate parameters of class A and positively correlated with the microstate parameters of class D. Transition analysis revealed that class B exhibited a higher probability of transition than did classes D and F in TSD compared to RW.Conclusion: The observation suggests alterations of the dynamic brain-state properties of TSD in healthy young male subjects, which may serve as system-level neural underpinnings for cognitive declines in sleep-deprived subjects.
