Effect of cortical cooling on interictal epileptiform activities
OBJECTIVE To determine if applying chilled solution to exposed cerebral cortex can reduce interictal epileptiform activities in patients during surgery. METHODS Electrocorticography was used to record the epileptiform activity of 12 patients (ages 18-53) undergoing cortical mapping and resection surgery. Interictal spikes were counted at baseline and compared with spikes after applying room t...
متن کاملNoninvasive cortical imaging of epileptiform activities from interictal spikes in pediatric patients
Improved non-invasive localization of the epileptogenic foci prior to epilepsy surgery would improve surgical outcome in patients with partial seizure disorders. A critical component for the identification of the epileptogenic brain is the analysis of electrophysiological data obtained during ictal activity from prolonged intracranial recordings. The development of a noninvasive means to identi...
متن کاملEffect of chronic vagal nerve stimulation on interictal epileptiform discharges
We evaluated the effect of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) on interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) in 32 epileptic patients (18 females; 14 males) with an average age of 42.2+/-11.4 years, all of whom had been suffering from epilepsy for an average of 29.2+/-14.5 years. All of the patients had received VNS for 5 years. The first EEG was performed prior to the initiation of stimulation; the s...
متن کاملInterictal Epileptiform Discharges
EEG remains the primary technique in the diagnosis, characterization, and localization of partial seizures. This review examines the significance and character of interictal epileptiform abnormailites, periodic lateralized epileptiform discharges, and ictal patterns in patients with partial epilepsy. Interictal epileptiform discharges are common and assist in the diagnosis and localization of p...
متن کاملthe effect of consciousness-raising activities on learning grammatical structures by iranian guidance school efl learners
abstract the first purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of consciousness-raising (c-r) activities on learning grammatical structures (simple present tense in this case) by iranian guidance school efl learners. the second one was to investigate the effect of gender on learning the simple present tense through c-r activities and tasks. finally, this study aimed to investigate the ...
