However, the impact of multimodal diversity (geographical, socioeconomic, sociodemographic, sex, neurodegeneration) on the brain age gap (BAG) is unknown. Here, we analyzed datasets from 5,306 participants across 15 countries (7 Latin American countries -LAC, 8 non-LAC). Based on higher-order interactions in brain signals, we developed a BAG deep learning architecture for functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI=2,953) and electroencephalography (EEG=2,353). The datasets comprised healthy controls, and individuals with mild cognitive impairment, Alzheimer’s disease, and behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia. LAC models evidenced older brain ages (fMRI: MDE=5.60, RMSE=11.91; EEG: MDE=5.34, RMSE=9.82) compared to non-LAC, associated with frontoposterior networks. Structural socioeconomic inequality and other disparity-related factors (pollution, health disparities) were influential predictors of increased brain age gaps, especially in LAC (R²=0.37, F²=0.59, RMSE=6.9). A gradient of increasing BAG from controls to mild cognitive impairment to Alzheimer’s disease was found. In LAC, we observed larger BAGs in females in control and Alzheimer’s disease groups compared to respective males. Results were not explained by variations in signal quality, demographics, or acquisition methods. Findings provide a quantitative framework capturing the multimodal diversity of accelerated brain aging.

Line thickness represents the number of participants with fMRI (yellow lines) and EEG (blue lines) per country. The raw fMRI and EEG signals were preprocessed by filtering and artifact removal and the EEG signals were normalized to project them into source space. A parcellation using the automated anatomical labeling (AAL) atlas for both the fMRI and EEG signals was performed to build the nodes from which we calculated the high-order interactions using the Ω-information metric. A connectivity matrix was obtained for both modalities, which was later represented by graphs. Data augmentation was performed only in the testing dataset. The graphs were used as input for a graph convolutional deep learning network (architecture shown in the last row), with separate models for EEG and fMRI.

However, the impact of multimodal diversity (geographical, socioeconomic, sociodemographic, sex, neurodegeneration) on the brain age gap (BAG) is unknown. Here, we analyzed datasets from 5,306 participants across 15 countries (7 Latin American countries -LAC, 8 non-LAC). Based on higher-order interactions in brain signals, we developed a BAG deep learning architecture for functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI=2,953) and electroencephalography (EEG=2,353). The datasets comprised healthy controls, and individuals with mild cognitive impairment, Alzheimer’s disease, and behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia. LAC models evidenced older brain ages (fMRI: MDE=5.60, RMSE=11.91; EEG: MDE=5.34, RMSE=9.82) compared to non-LAC, associated with frontoposterior networks. Structural socioeconomic inequality and other disparity-related factors (pollution, health disparities) were influential predictors of increased brain age gaps, especially in LAC (R²=0.37, F²=0.59, RMSE=6.9). A gradient of increasing BAG from controls to mild cognitive impairment to Alzheimer’s disease was found. In LAC, we observed larger BAGs in females in control and Alzheimer’s disease groups compared to respective males. Results were not explained by variations in signal quality, demographics, or acquisition methods. Findings provide a quantitative framework capturing the multimodal diversity of accelerated brain aging.\u003c/p\u003e","manuscriptTitle":"Brain clocks capture diversity and disparity in aging and dementia","msid":"","msnumber":"","nonDraftVersions":[{"code":1,"date":"2024-06-25 14:08:07","doi":"10.21203/rs.3.rs-4150225/v1","editorialEvents":[],"status":"published","journal":{"display":true,"email":"
