About this study

Official title: Electrophysiological and Bioenergetic Study of Variations in Cognitive and Physical Performance in Healthy Humans: EEG Monitoring for PERFormance Anticipation

Identify, characterize and then validate electrophysiological markers linking electrophysiological cerebral activity and performance in cognitive and physical fatigability in humans. To do this, noninvasive explorations of electroencephalography (EEG) and magnetoencephalography (MEG) will be carried out under two conditions of different experiments, the first one that induces a cognitive fatigability and the second one that induces physical fatigability.

Conditions
Healthy
Being tested
Electroencephalography (EEG) multi-sensor, Magnetoencephalography (MEG), Behavioral Measures, Reaction time measurement, Assessment of physical performance

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Electroencephalography (EEG) multi-sensorOther

    Electrophysiological measurements of cerebral activity will be performed by multi-sensor electroencephalography (EEG), which is a non-invasive method.

  • Magnetoencephalography (MEG)Other

    Electrophysiological measurements of brain activity will be performed by magnetoencephalography (MEG) which is a non-invasive method.

  • Behavioral MeasuresOther

    The evaluation of cognitive performance will be carried out by means of behavioral measures, push-button type, handling of a mouse or a joystick.

  • Reaction time measurementOther

    The assessment of cognitive performance will be carried out using standard behavioral measures, such as reaction time measurement.

  • Assessment of physical performanceOther

    The assessment of physical performance will be based both on bioenergetic measurements and on quantitative data collected in continuous and relative to the effort (eg instantaneous pedaling speed).

  • Electrooculogram (EOG)Other

    In order to extract artifacts and verify the physical performances of the subjects, under the conditions of physical fatigability, peripheral electrophysiological recordings will be necessary and complementary to meet the objectives set in this study.

  • Electromyogram (EMG)Other

    In order to extract artifacts and verify the physical performances of the subjects, under the conditions of physical fatigability, peripheral electrophysiological recordings will be necessary and complementary to meet the objectives set in this study.

  • Electrocardiogram with 3 leadsOther

    In order to extract artifacts and verify the physical performances of the subjects, under the conditions of physical fatigability, peripheral electrophysiological recordings will be necessary and complementary to meet the objectives set in this study.

  • Electrodermogram (EDG)Other

    In order to extract artifacts and verify the physical performances of the subjects, under the conditions of physical fatigability, peripheral electrophysiological recordings will be necessary and complementary to meet the objectives set in this study.

  • Consumption of O2 (VO2)Other

    In order to extract artifacts and verify the physical performances of the subjects, under the conditions of physical fatigability, peripheral electrophysiological recordings will be necessary and complementary to meet the objectives set in this study.

  • Production of CO2 (VCO2)Other

    In order to extract artifacts and verify the physical performances of the subjects, under the conditions of physical fatigability, peripheral electrophysiological recordings will be necessary and complementary to meet the objectives set in this study.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Identify electrophysiological markers in humans depending on whether the experimental conditions induce cognitive fatigability.

    The evaluation of cognitive performance will be carried out by means of conventional behavioral measures, of the press-button type, handling of a mouse or of a joystick and measurement of reaction time.

    Measured: 7 hours

  2. Identify electrophysiological markers in humans depending on whether the experimental conditions induce physical fatigability with EEG.

    Electrophysiological measurements of cerebral activity will be performed by multi-sensor electroencephalography (EEG).

    Measured: 7 hours

  3. Identify electrophysiological markers in humans depending on whether the experimental conditions induce physical fatigability with MEG.

    Electrophysiological measurements of cerebral activity will be carried out by magnetoencephalography (MEG)

    Measured: 7 hours

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Refine (locate at the level of the cortex), the origin of these physiological markers

    Several types of recordings, passive and non-invasive, will be realized:

    • Electrooculogram (EOG);
    • electromyography (EMG);
    • electrocardiogram (ECG); Systematically in "physical" experiments and for some "cognitive" experiments.

    Measured: 7 hours

  2. Distinguish between different time scales of performance

    Several types of recordings, passive and non-invasive, will be realized:

    • electrodermogram (EDG);
    • the consumption of O2 (VO2);
    • production of CO2 (VCO2). Only and systematically, in "physical" experiments.

    Measured: 7 hours

What does the primary outcome measure?

Identify electrophysiological markers in humans depending on whether the experimental conditions induce cognitive fatigability. (time frame: 7 hours). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03233282, which also lists 3 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
