Greedy Randomized Adaptive Search and Variable Neighbourhood Search for the minimum labelling spanning tree problem [PDF]

, 2009
This paper studies heuristics for the minimum labelling spanning tree (MLST) problem. The purpose is to find a spanning tree using edges that are as similar as possible.

Transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation does not affect verbal memory performance in healthy volunteers [PDF]

, 2020
Introduction: Invasive vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) improves word recognition memory in patients with epilepsy. Recent studies with transcutaneous VNS (tVNS) have also shown positive effects on various subdomains of cognitive functioning in healthy ...

Effectiveness of neuromodulation in patients with drug-resistant epilepsy after failed surgical treatment

Эпилепсия и пароксизмальные состояния
Background. In case of ineffective conservative antiepileptic therapy, surgical treatment aimed at removing the epileptogenic focus may be applied. Resection procedures allow to eliminate seizures in most patients, but in 20–30% cases they persist or ...

Does enternal nutrition affect clinical outcome? A systematic review of the randomized trials [PDF]

, 2007
Background: Both parenteral nutrition (PN) and enteral nutrition (EN) are widely advocated as adjunctive care in patients with various diseases. A systematic review of 82 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of PN published in 2001 found little, if any ...

Possible relationship between vagus nerve stimulation and ictal discharges revealed by long-term electroencephalographic and electrocorticographic monitoring in a non-responsive patient

Interdisciplinary Neurosurgery, 2021
Background: Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is a well-known palliative therapy for refractory epilepsy. However, some non-responsive patients experience persistent epileptic seizures after VNS.
