Sleep pattern disruption of flight attendants operating on the Asia–Pacific route [PDF]

, 2011
Jet lag is a common issue with flight attendants in international flights, as they have to cross several time zones back and forth, while their sleep patterns get disrupted by the legally required rest times between flights, which are normally carried

Epilepsy syndromes classification

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy syndromes are distinct electroclinical entities which have been recently defined by the International League Against Epilepsy Nosology and Definitions Task Force. Each syndrome is associated with “a characteristic cluster of clinical and EEG features, often supported by specific etiologic findings”.

Absence seizures: Update on signaling mechanisms and networks

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Absence seizures (AS) are a hallmark of genetic generalized epilepsies (GGE), characterized by brief episodes of impaired consciousness accompanied by electroencephalographic spike‐and‐wave discharges (SWDs). Traditionally attributed to cortico‐thalamo‐cortical (CTC) dysrhythmia, emerging evidence suggests a more intricate pathophysiological ...

Does the 1/f frequency-scaling of brain signals reflect self-organized critical states?

, 2006
Many complex systems display self-organized critical states characterized by 1/f frequency scaling of power spectra. Global variables such as the electroencephalogram, scale as 1/f, which could be the sign of self-organized critical states in neuronal ...

Artificial intelligence in preclinical epilepsy research: Current state, potential, and challenges

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Preclinical translational epilepsy research uses animal models to better understand the mechanisms underlying epilepsy and its comorbidities, as well as to analyze and develop potential treatments that may mitigate this neurological disorder and its associated conditions. Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative tool across

Driving after vagus nerve stimulation therapy: Is it possible?

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Driving is consistently reported as an important goal for people with epilepsy. We sought to determine the proportion of people with drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) who became medically fit to drive after treatment with vagus nerve stimulation (VNS).

Trace amine-associated receptors (TAARs)2-9 knockout mice exhibit reduced wakefulness and disrupted REM sleep

Frontiers in Psychiatry
IntroductionThis study aimed to investigate the role of TAAR2-9 in sleep/wake regulation, given TAAR1's known involvement in modulating neurotransmitter release and sleep patterns.MethodsMale TAAR2-9 knockout (KO) and wild-type (WT) mice were compared ...

The efficacy of transcranial current stimulation techniques to modulate resting-state EEG, to affect vigilance and to promote sleepiness [PDF]

, 2018
Transcranial Current Stimulations (tCSs) are non-invasive brain stimulation techniques which modulate cortical excitability and spontaneous brain activity by the application of weak electric currents through the scalp, in a safe, economic, and well ...

Progressive clonic slowing predicts severity of respiratory dysfunction and prolonged postictal immobility in tonic–clonic seizures

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Progressive clonic slowing is a common electroclinical phenomenon observed during the clonic phase of bilateral tonic–clonic seizures (BTCS) and reflects an inhibitory phenomenon. We aimed to explore the relationship between progressive clonic slowing and biomarkers implicated in the pathophysiology of sudden unexpected death in ...
