Sleep enhances gamma oscillations in the seizure onset zone and broadband activity in the irritative zone of focal cortical dysplasia

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) is a leading cause of drug‐resistant epilepsy and is associated with sleep‐related seizures, yet the underlying electrophysiological mechanisms during different brain states remain poorly understood. We investigated whether fast oscillations (FOs) within the seizure onset zone (SOZ) and irritative zone (

Spatiotemporal Encoding With Nonlinear Gradient Hardware Using Pulseq: From Principles to Practical Demonstration

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
Purpose Provide the theoretical foundation and the first practical demonstration of spatiotemporal encoding (SPEN) using additional nonlinear gradient hardware. Methods The quadratic phase profile can be generated either by a chirped‐RF pulse combined with a constant gradient or, directly, by a quadratic gradient pulse.

Differences and Commonalities of Electrical Stimulation Paradigms After Central Paralysis and Amputation

open access: yesArtificial Organs, Volume 49, Issue 12, Page 1723-1732, December 2025.
Invasive and non‐invasive functional electrical stimulation (FES) is a well‐established method to partially restore function after paralysis and deliver sensory feedback after amputation. This work summarizes the current state‐of‐the‐art of FES for restoring function, supporting rehabilitation therapy, and assistive devices.

The impact of EEG preprocessing parameters on ultra‐low‐power seizure detection

open access: yesEpilepsia, Volume 66, Issue 10, Page 3895-3906, October 2025.
Abstract Objective Closed‐loop neurostimulation is a promising treatment for drug‐resistant focal epilepsy. A major challenge is fast and reliable seizure detection via electroencephalography (EEG). Although many approaches have been published, they often lack statistical power and practical utility.

Fabrication of a Stable, Low‐Cost, Patient‐Specific, Brain Phantom with Ventricles for Ultrasound Imaging

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 27, Issue 18, September 2025.
Patient‐specific brain phantoms can replace animal trials, aid presurgical training, and enable in silico disease research on cerebrospinal fluid and ventricles. This study presents a method to create ventricular brain phantoms from three‐dimensional magnetic resonance images brain scans, resulting in durable, tunable, reproducible models that mimic ...

Covalent Binding of Dexamethasone to Polyimide Improves Biocompatibility of Neural Implantable Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 14, Issue 21, August 19, 2025.
The covalent binding of dexamethasone to the surface of polyimide represents the electrically inert part of implantable intraneural devices. This ensures a sustained release of the drug for 9 weeks. In vitro and in vivo tests confirm the reduction of the foreign body reactions and the improved biocompatibility of dexamethasone functionalized polyimide.

Dysregulation of Myelination in Focal Cortical Dysplasia Type II of the Human Frontal Lobe

open access: yesGlia, Volume 73, Issue 5, Page 928-947, May 2025.
Main Points FCD IIa shows a normal radial myelin fiber pattern, thinner myelin sheaths and reduced myelin synthesis. FCD IIb has disorganized myelinated fibers, thicker myelin sheaths, more oligodendrocytes, and an increased transcription rate of myelin genes.
