PLEDs have been described mainly in adults, and are defined as repetitive periodic, focal or hemispheric epileptiform discharges (spikes, spike-and-wave discharges, polyspikes or sharp waves ...

Ictal EEG features are numerous, and they include 3 Hz spike-and-wave discharges, as well as rhythmical slowing, spike-and-slow waves, polyspikes and diffuse background slowing (Figure 1).

The human electroencephalogram (EEG) was discovered by the German psychiatrist, Hans Berger, in 1929. Its potential applications in epilepsy rapidly became clear, when Gibbs and colleagues in Boston ...

Workers are struggling to cope with a “seemingly infinite workday,” involving an increasing load of meetings scheduled at 8 p.m. or later and a near-constant stream of interruptions ...

By adjusting these internal conductances, neurons can shift their resonance preferences between theta and gamma waves, and between burst and single-spike firing.

The signals or brain waves that connect Baxter and the EEG-cap-wearing researcher are called error-related-potentials or “ErrP” and occur naturally in the brain when we make a mistake. The ...

Extreme heat doesn't just take its toll on our bodies: it also silently affects our mental health. A recent study shows that temperature spikes could trigger or worsen certain mental disorders, a ...
