Detection of focal impaired awareness seizures using a biometric shirt
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Objective In recent years, seizure detection using wearable technology has gained significant attention in research. Most studies, however, have focused on detecting generalized or focal to bilateral tonic–clonic seizures. This study evaluates the feasibility of using a biometric shirt to detect focal impaired awareness seizures (FIAS) by ...

Epilepsy surgery: From bench to the clinics
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Recent advances in epilepsy surgery in patients with intractable epilepsy make it possible to study the mechanism of epilepsy in human brains. However, the true extent and propagation of each epileptogenic area from the epileptogenic focus in each patient is still difficult to perform “epilepsy cure” by surgery.

Botulinum toxin injections as a method for chemically denervating skeletal muscle to test functional hypotheses: a pilot study in Lepomis cyanellus [PDF]
, 2007 In this study, we demonstrate that botulinum toxin can be used to chemically denervate muscles to test functional hypotheses. We injected research-grade type A botulinum toxin complex into pectoral fin abductors (abductor superficialis) of green sunfish (
