Functional connectivity in whole-brain and network analysis differentiates minimally conscious from unresponsive patients: a resting-state fNIRS study [PDF]

Journal of Translational Medicine
Background Accurately assessing and detecting residual awareness in patients with vegetative state/unresponsive wakefulness syndrome (VS/UWS) and minimally conscious state (MCS) remains significant challenges.

Sleep-like cortical OFF-periods disrupt causality and complexity in the brain of unresponsive wakefulness syndrome patients [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2018
Many brain-injured patients retain large cortical islands that are intact, active and reactive but blocked in a state of low complexity, leading to unconsciousness. Here, the authors show that this loss of complexity is due to the pathological engagement

Pupil constrictions to subjective brightness as a gateway to probe consciousness in non communicating patients [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Retinal illumination primarily determines pupil size, yet extra-retinal factors like subjective brightness also influence pupillary responses. Previous works reported that in healthy individuals, stimuli whose semantic content evokes brightness cause ...

Preserved somatosensory discrimination predicts consciousness recovery in unresponsive wakefulness syndrome

Clinical Neurophysiology, 2018
To assess somatosensory discrimination and command following using a vibrotactile P300-based Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) in Unresponsive Wakefulness Syndrome (UWS), and investigate the predictive role of this cognitive process on the clinical outcomes.Thirteen UWS patients and six healthy controls each participated in two experimental runs in which ...
