Human Computer Interface for Tracking Eye Movements Improves Assessment and Diagnosis of Patients With Acquired Brain Injuries

Frontiers in Neurology, 2019
One of the first clinical signs differentiating the minimally conscious state from the vegetative state is the presence of smooth pursuit eye movements occurring in direct response to moving salient stimuli.

Distinct interactions between fronto-parietal and default mode networks in impaired consciousness [PDF]

, 2016
Existing evidence suggests that the default-mode network (DMN) and fronto-pariatal network (FPN) play an important role in altered states of consciousness.

The Minimally Conscious State [PDF]

Archives of Neurology, 2007
Limited epidemiologic data undermine the identification of patients in a minimally conscious state (MCS) and needed health policy analysis. Based on the natural history of disorders of consciousness and the evolution of MCS, we propose 2 models to characterize MCS epidemiology: a severity model to integrate diagnostic and severity of injury codes, such

Subjectivity: A Case of Biological Individuation and an Adaptive Response to Informational Overflow [PDF]

, 2016
The article presents a perspective on the scientific explanation of the subjectivity of conscious experience. It proposes plausible answers for two empirically valid questions: the ‘how’ question concerning the developmental mechanisms of subjectivity ...

Caregiver reactions to neuroimaging evidence of covert consciousness in patients with severe brain injury: a qualitative interview study

BMC Medical Ethics, 2021
Background Severe brain injury is a leading cause of death and disability. Diagnosis and prognostication are difficult, and errors occur often. Novel neuroimaging methods can improve diagnostic and prognostic accuracy, especially in patients with ...

A Bayesian statistical analysis of behavioral facilitation associated with deep brain stimulation [PDF]

, 2009
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an established therapy for Parkinson's Disease and is being investigated as a treatment for chronic depression, obsessive compulsive disorder and for facilitating functional recovery of patients in minimally conscious ...

General anesthesia reduces complexity and temporal asymmetry of the informational structures derived from neural recordings in Drosophila

, 2020
We apply techniques from the field of computational mechanics to evaluate the statistical complexity of neural recording data from fruit flies. First, we connect statistical complexity to the flies' level of conscious arousal, which is manipulated by ...

Coma and vegetative states: state of the art and proposal of a novel approach combining existing coma scales

Annali dell'Istituto Superiore di Sanità, 2014
Brain damage of various aetiologies can lead to different disorders of consciousness (DOC), varying from coma to vegetative, to minimally conscious states.
