Structural Eigenmodes of the Brain to Improve the Source Localization of EEG: Application to Epileptiform Activity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Geometry and connectivity are complementary structures, which have demonstrated their ability to represent the brain's functional activity. This study evaluates geometric and connectome eigenmodes as biologically informed constraints for EEG source localization.

Management and outcomes among older adults with generalized epilepsy in routine clinical practice

Epilepsia Open
Generalized epilepsy is classically thought of as a disease of the young and adolescent, with rarely reported cases among older adults. We aimed to analyze management and outcomes in a population sparsely described in the literature through a ...

Asynchronous suppression of visual cortex during absence seizures in stargazer mice

Nature Communications, 2018
Absence epilepsy is associated with frequent generalized spike-wave seizures and loss of awareness. Here the authors use 2-photon calcium imaging of primary visual cortex in a genetic mouse model of absence epilepsy and find that cortical neurons are ...

Importance of Genetic Testing in Children With Generalized Epilepsy

Cureus
Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterized by the predisposition for recurrent unprovoked seizures. It can broadly be classified as focal, generalized, unclassified, and unknown in its onset. Focal epilepsy originates in and involves networks localized to one region of the brain. Generalized epilepsy engages broader, more diffuse networks.

Distinct Biotypes of Visual Perception in Major Depressive Disorder

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In a discover dataset (272 acute MDD patients), this work identifies a novel depression biotype characterized by impaired visual motion perception, using machine learning clustering. An independent dataset confirms the robustness of this biotype through cross‐validation and demonstrates its generalizability.
