Description

Method for regulating cognitive ability through real-time nerve feedback based on fNIRS
Technical Field
The invention relates to a method for regulating cognitive ability based on fNIRS real-time neural feedback.
Background
At present, countries around the world face a global problem of obesity, which is the third major factor after cardiovascular disease and cancer that poses the most threat to human health. The united kingdom famous medical journal "lancet" in 2016 published a report of a global adult human recall: the obese population of adults has exceeded the normal body weight population worldwide, with 9000 million obese populations (4320 million men and 4649 ten thousand women) in china exceeding 8700 million in the united states, and becoming the country with the largest obese population worldwide. Therefore, our country is very serious in the situation of obesity.
Obesity not only causes various metabolic diseases (type II diabetes and the like), but also causes various complications, such as coronary heart disease, hypertension, liver and gall disease, lung dysfunction, joint disease and the like. In addition, obesity seriously affects the quality of life of people, reduces social acceptance, reduces income, increases psychological burden, and increases the burden on public health systems; the cost due to obesity accounts for about 2% -10% of the total medical cost. Clinical treatment for obesity showed: the medicine has unsatisfactory weight-losing effect and is accompanied by side effects; while surgical bariatric surgery (gastric band bariatric surgery (AGB), cuffled gastric bariatric surgery (LSG), and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery (RYGB)) has long-term and effective effects on the treatment of obesity, the surgery is expensive and there is a risk of obesity recurrence after the surgery.
Studies have shown that obesity is caused by many reasons, but the main factor is obesity caused by excessive intake of high calorie food due to the inability of obese patients to suppress their desire for high calorie food. Existing studies have shown that the brain reward circuit of obese patients has a higher response to food picture stimuli, while the brain area responsible for cognitive decision making and control execution is not responsive enough, resulting in the inability of obese patients to control their own eating behavior. Therefore, the invention starts from the brain center, designs a set of method for regulating and controlling the cognitive ability based on the real-time neural feedback of fNIRS (functional-isolated spectroscopy, namely a near infrared brain imaging system), so as to improve the cognitive decision and the execution control function of the obese patient on food, and further improve the eating behavior.

Fourthly, cognitive testing and behavior measuring stage
We have conducted confirmatory experiments on the cognitive ability regulation of obese patients in the face of food inhibition control, impulsivity, decision making, short-term working memory, and the like, using the above invention contents. Before and after the start and end of treatment, we performed behavioral scale measurements and cognitive performance tests on the subjects, respectively.
The behavior scale contents include the following:
1, height, weight, BMI, waist circumference, etc.;
dietary behavior scales including the three-factor diet scale, the netherlands diet scale, the yale food addiction scale;
mental state scales including the hamilton anxiety scale, hamilton depression scale;
4, Pittsburgh sleep index scale for measuring the sleep condition of the tested subject;
the cognitive tests mainly comprise the following 4 tests:
1, the food willingness payment test measures the cognitive decision-making ability of a subject when confronted with the stimulation of food pictures by presenting the subject with high-calorie and low-calorie food pictures continuously and asking the subject to answer the question of how much you are willing to pay to buy the food by pressing a button after each picture;
2, the reaction inhibition test randomly presents target letters and non-target letters to a tested object, when the target letters appear, the tested object is required to press a reaction key as soon as possible, otherwise, the reaction inhibition capability of the tested object is measured in a non-reaction mode;
and 3, continuously presenting a group of pictures to the tested person through a short-time working memory test, requiring the tested person to compare the currently presented picture with the picture at the position spaced from the currently presented picture, and requiring the tested person to immediately press a response key if the pictures are the same, or not responding if the pictures are different. This test primarily measures the short-term working memory of the subject.
4, delayed discount test by having the subject answer a series of "give you 10 yuan immediately or 100 yuan after a week, please choose? The method solves the problem of combining different money rewards and delay time, finds out the equivalent time point of the tested preference to the instant smaller reward and the preference to the delayed larger reward, thereby calculating the tested delay discount rate which reflects the impulsivity of the tested.
Behavioral scale measurements show: the reward, food addiction value and anxiety level of obese patients for high calorie food (HC) are significantly reduced, as shown in figures 3B-3D; a reduced degree of non-suppression of food in the three-factor diet scale, as shown in figure 3E; the pittsburgh sleep scale score decreased significantly, indicating a significant improvement in the quality of the tested sleep, as shown in figure 3F; in addition, the weight of the test body is reduced by 2.58Kg on average, as shown in FIG. 3A.
The short-term working memory test results are shown in fig. 4A and 4B, the correct response rate of the tested object after training is increased, and the response time is decreased, which indicates that the short-term memory and response capability of the tested object are improved; the willingness to Pay for food (willingness to Pay for food) test shows that the result is shown in fig. 4C, the willingness to Pay for high-calorie food of the subject after training is reduced, and the cognitive decision-making ability of the subject is improved when the subject is confronted with food stimulation; the reaction inhibition test results are shown in fig. 4D and 4E, and the accuracy of the reaction of the test subject after training is increased, which indicates that the inhibition control capability of the test subject is improved to a certain extent; the delay discount (delay counting) test result is shown in fig. 4F, and the delay discount rate of the tested object after training is reduced, which indicates that the impulsivity of the tested object is reduced. The results show that the 12 real-time neural feedback regulation training effectively improves the cognitive decision-making ability of the obese patient when the obese patient faces food stimulation, improves the reaction inhibition and short-time working memory ability of the obese patient, and reduces the impulsivity.
The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail. However, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge of those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
