objective: in this research, a new approach termed as “evolutionary-based brain map” is presented as a diagnostic tool to classify schizophrenic and control subjects by distinguishing their electroencephalogram (eeg) features. methods: particle swarm optimization (pso) is employed to find discriminative frequency bands from different eeg channels. by deploying the energy of those selected frequ...

introduction: transforming growth factor-beta 1 (tgf-β1) is a pleiotropic cytokine with potent anti-inflammatory property, which has been considered as an essential risk factor in the inflammatory process of ischemic stroke (is), by involving in the pathophysiological progression of hypertension, atherosclerosis, and lipid metabolisms. -509c/t tgf-β1 gene polymorphism has been found to be assoc...

Specific developmental and aging trajectories characterize sleep electroencephalogram (EEG) of typically developing (TD) subjects. Williams syndrome (WS) is marked by sleep alterations and accelerated aging of several anatomo-functional and cognitive measures. Here we test the hypothesis of a premature aging of sleep in WS. Age-related changes of home recorded sleep EEG of 42 subjects (21 WS, 2...

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common in patients with refractory epilepsy and may exacerbate seizures. In epileptic patients with OSA, seizures occur more frequently during sleep. Seizure frequency may be reduced by treating OSA and increase if the treatment is interrupted or neglected. It is not clear how OSA provokes seizures. Multiple seizureprovoking factors including cerebral hypoxemia,...

This paper reviews recent progress in the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) from electroencephalograms (EEG). Three major effects of AD on EEG have been observed: slowing of the EEG, reduced complexity of the EEG signals, and perturbations in EEG synchrony. In recent years, a variety of sophisticated computational approaches has been proposed to detect those subtle perturbations in the EEG ...

PURPOSE Changes in electroencephalography (EEG) patterns may offer a clue to the cause of altered mental status and suggest the prognoses of patients with such mental status. We aimed to identify the EEG patterns in patients with altered mental status and to correlate EEG findings with clinical prognoses. MATERIALS AND METHODS We included 105 patients with altered mental status who underwent ...

Combined EEG/fMRI recording has been used to localize the generators of EEG events and to identify subject state in cognitive studies and is of increasing interest. However, the large EEG artifacts induced during fMRI have precluded simultaneous EEG and fMRI recording, restricting study design. Removing this artifact is difficult, as it normally exceeds EEG significantly and contains components...
