EEG to Identify Attempted Movement in Unresponsive Wakefulness Syndrome
Clinical EEG and Neuroscience, 2020 Assessment of consciousness following severe brain-injury is challenging. Our hypothesis is that electroencephalography (EEG) can provide information on awareness, in terms of oscillatory activity and network task–related modifications, in people with disorders of consciousness.

Sleep/Wake Modulation of Polysomnographic Patterns has Prognostic Value in Pediatric Unresponsive Wakefulness Syndrome. [PDF]
J Clin Sleep Med, 2016 Sleep patterns of pediatric patients in unresponsive wakefulness syndrome (UWS) have been poorly investigated, and the prognostic potential of polysomnography (PSG) in these subjects is still uncertain. The goal of the study was to identify quantitative PSG indices to be applied as possible prognostic markers in pediatric UWS.We performed PSG in 27 ...

Learning implicit sentiments in Alzheimer's disease recognition with contextual attention features
Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2023 BackgroundAlzheimer's disease (AD) is difficult to diagnose on the basis of language because of the implicit emotion of transcripts, which is defined as a supervised fuzzy implicit emotion classification at the document level. Recent neural network-based

Predicting outcome from subacute unresponsive wakefulness syndrome or vegetative state. [PDF]
Crit Care, 2014 AbstractPredicting recovery of consciousness in patients who survive their coma but evolve to a vegetative state (recently coined unresponsive wakefulness syndrome) remains a challenge. Most previous prognostic studies have focused on the acute coma phase.

[The unresponsive wakefulness syndrome: Dutch perspectives]. [PDF]
Nederlands tijdschrift voor geneeskunde, 2016 The unresponsive wakefulness syndrome (UWS), formerly known as the vegetative state, is one of the most dramatic outcomes of acquired brain injury. Patients with UWS open their eyes spontaneously but demonstrate only reflexive behavior; there are no signs of consciousness.

The living dead? Perception of persons in the unresponsive wakefulness syndrome in Germany compared to the USA. [PDF]
BMC Psychol, 2018 The extent to which people ascribe mind to others has been shown to predict the extent to which human rights are conferred. Therefore, in the context of disorders of consciousness (DOC), mind ascription can influence end of life decisions. A previous US-American study indicated that participants ascribed even less mind to patients with unresponsive ...

Single unit activities recorded in the thalamus and the overlying parietal cortex of subjects affected by disorders of consciousness. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 The lack of direct neurophysiological recordings from the thalamus and the cortex hampers our understanding of vegetative state/unresponsive wakefulness syndrome and minimally conscious state in humans.
