Variational autoencoder for interpretable seizure onset phases detection -
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that a VAE-based approach can produce a meaningful latent space from SEEG data to detect seizures and fast onset patterns, potentially helping clinicians reduce the workload of SEEG review.
Repeated traumatic brain injury in civilian emergency care: An exploration of potential risk factors -
Repeated traumatic brain injury (rTBI) is recognised as a contributor to long-term impairments in cognition, mental health and quality of life. Whilst most rTBI research has focused on sporting and military populations, rTBI presentations to civilian emergency departments (EDs) remain poorly characterised. For this systematic review, six electronic databases were searched for studies examining ...
Opportunities for the future of transcranial magnetic stimulation and epilepsy -
Drug-resistant epilepsy has traditionally been managed with medications or surgery aimed at removing or destroying epileptogenic tissue. In contrast, electrical brain stimulation seeks to alter dysfunctional neural circuits without tissue destruction. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a particularly attractive approach due to its favorable side-effect profile and robust diagnostic as w...
CT perfusion abnormalities in status epilepticus: associations with clinical characteristics, EEG, and outcome measures -
CONCLUSION: CTP may serve as a useful tool for early triage in centers with limited neurophysiological resources and may help suggest nonconvulsive SE in diagnostically unclear cases. Hyperperfusion on CTP appears to reflect disease severity and prolonged seizure activity rather than brain injury. Ictal EEG patterns can be associated with both hyperperfusion and hypoperfusion. CTP abnormalities...
Brain signal irregularity may provide clues to understanding epileptic process -
Researchers propose a new method to differentiate signals from the epileptic focus from those recorded in other parts of the brain without the presence of an epileptic seizure. This technique may help detect epilepsy-induced features from these signals much quicker than conventional analysis techniques.
Breakthrough tech enables seizure localization in minutes -
New research introduces a novel network analysis technology that uses minimally invasive resting state electrophysiological recordings to localize seizure onset brain regions and predict seizure outcomes in just 10 minutes.
