Infraslow oscillations modulate excitability and interictal epileptic activity in the human cortex during sleep.
Human cortical activity has been intensively examined at frequencies ranging from 0.5 Hz to several hundred Hz. Recent studies have, however, reported also infraslow fluctuations in neuronal population activity, magnitude of electroencephalographic oscillations, discrete sleep events, as well as in the occurrence of interictal events. Here we use direct current electroencephalography to demonst...
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 کاملInterictal epileptiform discharges do not change before seizures during sleep.
PURPOSE Whether interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) increase, decrease, or are unchanged before epileptic seizures has implications for the pathophysiology of epilepsy. Prior studies relating IEDs and seizures have not demonstrated a change in IEDs before seizures. However, they have not controlled for changes in the depth of sleep. Our objective was to test the hypothesis that IEDs are r...
متن کاملHeterogeneous neuronal firing patterns during interictal epileptiform discharges in the human cortex.
Epileptic cortex is characterized by paroxysmal electrical discharges. Analysis of these interictal discharges typically manifests as spike-wave complexes on electroencephalography, and plays a critical role in diagnosing and treating epilepsy. Despite their fundamental importance, little is known about the neurophysiological mechanisms generating these events in human focal epilepsy. Using thr...
متن کاملThe stability of spike counts in children with interictal epileptiform activity
PURPOSE Little is known about the stability of serial measures of spike counts in children or whether spike counts are an inherently stable or unstable measure. We investigated the variation in first- and second-night spike counts in children undergoing 48-h ambulatory EEG recording. METHODS We analyzed 40 consecutive 48-h ambulatory EEGs performed at Boston Children's Hospital that manifeste...
