Infantile Spasms: An Update on Pre-Clinical Models and EEG Mechanisms

open access: yesChildren, 2020
Infantile spasms (IS) is an epileptic encephalopathy with unique clinical and electrographic features, which affects children in the middle of the first year of life. The pathophysiology of IS remains incompletely understood, despite the heterogeneity of

Connectivity Analysis of Hypsarrhythmia-EEG for Infants With West Syndrome

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering
Detection of hypsarrhythmia electroencephalography (EEG) in infants with West syndrome (WS) is currently performed by manual inspection of long-term video/EEG recording, producing low inter-rater reliability.
