Geo-clustered chronic affinity: pathways from socio-economic disadvantages to health disparities [PDF]
JAMIA Open, Volume 2, Issue 3, October 2019, Pages 317-322, 2019 Our objective was to develop and test a new concept (affinity) analogous to multimorbidity of chronic conditions for individuals at census tract level in Memphis, TN. The use of affinity will improve the surveillance of multiple chronic conditions and facilitate the design of effective interventions.

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.Abstract Objective (1) To compare use, benefits, and complications of stereo‐EEG (SEEG) and subdural EEG (SD) in presurgical epilepsy candidates. (2) To evaluate the effectiveness of both methods in delineation of the epileptogenic zone (EZ) and guiding tailored resective surgery. Methods We included patients with SEEG or SD evaluations in children and

Single versus double drainage in chronic subdural hematomas treated with burr-holes
Revista Cubana de Medicina Militar, 2023 Introduction: Chronic subdural hematoma is a frequent type of intracranial hemorrhage. Treatment for symptomatic cases is generally surgical. Burr-hole completion is the method of choice.

TBI Contusion Segmentation from MRI using Convolutional Neural Networks [PDF]
, 2018 Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is caused by a sudden trauma to the head that may result in hematomas and contusions and can lead to stroke or chronic disability. An accurate quantification of the lesion volumes and their locations is essential to understand the pathophysiology of TBI and its progression.

A Surgical Platform for Intracerebral Hemorrhage Robotic Evacuation (ASPIHRE): A Non-metallic MR-guided Concentric Tube Robot [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is the deadliest stroke sub-type, with a one-month mortality rate as high as 52%. Due to the potential cortical disruption caused by craniotomy, conservative management (watchful waiting) has historically been a common method of treatment.

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Clonic seizures are characterized by twitching movements at a frequency of 0.2–5 Hz. The clonic “twitch” is produced by a brief synchronized contraction of agonist and antagonist muscles, followed by a synchronized silent period.

Chronic Subdural Hematoma Associated with External Decompression for Acute Traumatic Intracranial Hematoma: report of two cases [PDF]
, 1986 A report is presented on two cases of chronic subdural hematoma which occurred after craniotomy, removal of the hematoma and external decompression for traumatic intracranial hematoma.

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.

A Generic Trauma Severity Computer Method Applied to Pedestrian Collisions [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 In the real world, the severity of traumatic injuries are measured using the Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS). However the AIS scale cannot currently be computed by using finite element human computer models, which calculate a maximum principal strains (MPS). Further, MPS only establishes a threshold above which a serious or fatal injury occurs. In order
