conclusions these open-label data show trends toward normalization of eeg and concomitant clinical improvement using magnetic stimulation for ptsd. results of the 21 patients who initiated therapy, 16 completed treatment. clinical improvements on the pcl-m were seen in these 16 patients, with an average pre-treatment score of 54.9 and post-treatment score of 31.8 (p < 0.001). in addition, relat...

objective: electroencephalogram is a reliable reflection of many physiological factors modulating the brain. the bispectrum is very useful for analyzing non-gaussian signals such as eeg, and detecting the quadratic phase coupling between distinct frequency components in eeg signals.the main aim of this study was to test the existence of nonlinear phase coupling within the eeg signals in a certa...

Continuous four hours EEG (electroencephalogram) recordings and its power spectrum analysis using fast fourier transform (FFT) in urethane anesthetized male Charles Foster rats were performed in two groups: open brain injury and p-CPA (para-Chlorophenylalanine) pretreated before brain injury, respectively, and compared with the EEG power spectrum of control rats. The EEG power spectrum analysis...

  The present study was carried out to explore the possible involvement of the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus in the inhibitory descending pain control system associated with the tail flick test and EEG recordings. Adult male (NMRI) albino rats weighing 200 ± 20 g were used. Rats were divided into three groups: experimental, sham and control. The arcuate nucleus was destroyed unilaterally ...
