Abstract
- Purpose: This study aimed to examine whether interictal migraine shows neurophysiological patterns aligned with an external major depressive disorder (MDD) reference dataset, using quantitative electroencephalography (qEEG) indices that are less sensitive to absolute amplifier gain.
Methods Three datasets were analyzed: ds005385 (normative reference, n=608; age-matched subset, 45–70 years, n=309), TDBRAIN (MDD, n=120; insomnia, n=30; healthy controls, n=47), and 25 patients with interictal migraine (chronic migraine, n=7; episodic migraine, n=18; mean age, 60.0 years; female participants, n=17). Eight candidate qEEG indices were ranked by effect size in TDBRAIN. The aperiodic exponent and frontal-parietal low-beta asymmetry (FP_asym_LowBeta) showed the largest effects and were selected for analysis. Four arousal-state windows were evaluated: eyes-closed resting, hyperventilation, post-hyperventilation 120 seconds, and post-hyperventilation 300 seconds.
Results In TDBRAIN, patients with MDD showed a reduced aperiodic exponent (Cohen’s d=–0.63, p=0.001) and elevated FP_asym_LowBeta (Cohen’s d=+0.83, p<0.001) compared with healthy controls. In patients with migraine, FP_asym_LowBeta was significantly elevated relative to the age-matched normative reference after false discovery rate correction during hyperventilation (p=0.015), post-hyperventilation 120 seconds (p=0.004), and post-hyperventilation 300 seconds (p=0.003); the eyes-closed resting window showed a nonsignificant trend (p=0.058). Chronic migraine showed a consistent but exploratory trend toward a lower aperiodic exponent (Cohen’s d=–0.95 to –1.12), although no comparison survived false discovery rate correction. A linear mixed-effects model showed no significant main effect of migraine subtype (p=0.084).
Conclusion Elevated FP_asym_LowBeta during hyperventilation and post-hyperventilation windows, directionally similar to the pattern observed in the MDD reference dataset, and an exploratory trend toward a reduced aperiodic exponent in chronic migraine are preliminary findings that warrant validation in larger, age-matched, medication-controlled cohorts.
