Heart Rate Variability Response to Therapist‐Selected Music as a Diagnostic Biomarker for Disorders of Consciousness

Sensory Neuroscience, Volume 1, Issue 3, December 2025.
Music modulates autonomic pathways to alter heart rate variability (HRV), with therapist‐selected music (TSM) showing the strongest association with consciousness levels in patients with disorders of consciousness (DOC). ABSTRACT Music, as an auditory stimulus, has long been recognized for its ability to evoke heart rate variability (HRV) responses. In

General Anesthesia and Altered States of Arousal: A Systems Neuroscience Analysis [PDF]

, 2011
Placing a patient in a state of general anesthesia is crucial for safely and humanely performing most surgical and many nonsurgical procedures. How anesthetic drugs create the state of general anesthesia is considered a major mystery of modern medicine ...

Distinct spike‐and‐wave EEG profiles reveal susceptibility to fleeting/almost loss of consciousness (so‐called blips) in generalized epilepsy

Epilepsia, Volume 66, Issue 11, Page 4465-4475, November 2025.
Abstract Objective To characterize electroencephalographic (EEG) profiles of short spike‐and‐wave bursts (SWBs) in patients with idiopathic generalized epilepsy reporting sensations of fleeting/almost loss of consciousness, described as “a blip on the screen”—a phenomenon first termed “blips” by J.W. Lance.

Automated MRI Segmentation of Brainstem Nuclei Critical to Consciousness

Human Brain Mapping, Volume 46, Issue 14, 01 October 2025.
To advance coma and consciousness research, we developed a method for segmenting brainstem ascending arousal network nuclei from MRI scans. We validated automated segmentations of these nuclei in normative brain scans from multiple MRI modalities, as well as in patients with Alzheimer's disease and traumatic brain injury.

Developing a data visualization tool for adults with disorders of consciousness: Qualitative analysis of user perspectives

Learning Health Systems, Volume 9, Issue 4, October 2025.
Abstract Introduction We report on the process of using a learning health systems (LHS) approach to design a data visualization dashboard to monitor the rehabilitation progress of patients with disorders of consciousness (DoC) after severe brain injury. Methods Our team conducted a qualitative study using informational interviews with key informants to

The Diagnostic Value of Visual Evoked Potentials in Chronic Disorders of Consciousness

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 12, Issue 9, Page 1875-1885, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Objective In chronic disorders of consciousness (DOCs), the distinction between vegetative state/unresponsive wakefulness syndrome (VS/UWS) and minimally conscious state (MCS) is as crucial as it is challenging. Evoked potentials (EPs) and event‐related potentials (ERPs) are helpful, but some limitations prevent their consistent use in the ...
