Seizure Detection Algorithm Using Heart Rate Variability

Seizure Detection Algorithm Using Heart Rate Variability Overview This study aimed to validate a novel seizure detection algorithm, based on heart rate variability (HRV) and logistic regression machine learning (LRML), in a Brazilian patient cohort undergoing long-term video-electroencephalography (LTM) monitoring. The LRML algorithm had shown promise in a Danish patient cohort, and

First Seizure Effects on Cognition in Adults

First Seizure Effects on Cognition in Adults Overview   Investigating cognitive and psychological functioning in adults after their first seizure, prior to epilepsy diagnosis and treatment, is crucial for understanding the early manifestations of neuropsychological comorbidities associated with chronic epilepsy. In this study, conducted through a telehealth-based prospective design, cognition, mood, and anxiety

Seizure Therapy And White Matter Changes

Seizure Therapy And White Matter Changes Functional seizures (FS) are a type of functional neurological symptom disorder that mimics epileptic seizures but lacks epileptiform changes on electroencephalography. The neuropathophysiology involves various brain systems, such as sensorimotor, emotion regulation, cognitive control, and multimodal integration.  Neurobehavioral therapy (NBT) has emerged as a viable treatment
