Clinicians use electroencephalography (EEG) to assess brain activity in epilepsy and sleep pathologies, and this powerful tool has shown promise for other conditions. Emerging evidence suggests that ...

What the study found: EEG recordings showed that individuals with borderline traits had difficulty ignoring angry faces during mentally demanding tasks. Why it matters: Identifying early neural ...

A trial involving comatose survivors of cardiac arrest tested whether aggressively treating rhythmic and periodic EEG activity would improve neurologic outcomes. Despite suppression of abnormal EEG ...

While nitrous oxide gas has been used recreationally and medically for more than 200 years - originally for its euphoric and then for its pain relieving and anesthetic properties - the mechanism ...

Two abstracts presented at the 2023 International Epilepsy Congress evaluated early electroencephalography (EEG) monitoring in children with seizures and encephalopathy. At the 35th International ...

A new automated computer algorithm for the diagnosis of epilepsy from electroencephalogram (EEG) readings ― developed by analyzing multiple expert opinions on thousands of such readings ― has shown ...

Using Neuropixels probes, the scientists mapped the sequential approach by which interictal epileptiform discharges occur in ...

Epilepsy is a neurological condition characterised by recurrent episodes of seizures. Most cases of epilepsy do not have a clear cause. The primary pathogenesis of many forms of epilepsy is an ...
