Connectomic Profiling Identifies Responders to Vagus Nerve Stimulation.

Annals of neurology
OBJECTIVE: Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is a common treatment for medically intractable epilepsy, but response rates are highly variable, with no preoperative means of identifying good candidates. This study aimed to predict VNS response using struc...

Accuracy of robot-assisted versus optical frameless navigated stereoelectroencephalography electrode placement in children.

Journal of neurosurgery. Pediatrics
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to compare the accuracy of optical frameless neuronavigation (ON) and robot-assisted (RA) stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) electrode placement in children, and to identify factors that might increase the risk of...

Frameless robot-assisted stereoelectroencephalography for refractory epilepsy in pediatric patients: accuracy, usefulness, and technical issues.

Acta neurochirurgica
BACKGROUND: Stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) is an effective technique to help to locate and to delimit the epileptogenic area and/or to define relationships with functional cortical areas. We intend to describe the surgical technique and verify t...

Predicting drug-resistant epilepsy - A machine learning approach based on administrative claims data.

Epilepsy & behavior : E&B
Patients with drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) are at high risk of morbidity and mortality, yet their referral to specialist care is frequently delayed. The ability to identify patients at high risk of DRE at the time of treatment initiation, and to sub...

Seizure forecasting using single robust linear feature as correlation vector of seizure-like events in brain slices preparation in vitro.

Neurological research
Epilepsy is a neurological disorder affecting 50 million individuals globally. Modern research has inspected the likelihood of forecasting epileptic seizures. Algorithmic investigations are giving promising results for seizure prediction. Though most...

Postoperative seizure outcome-guided machine learning for interictal electrocorticography in neocortical epilepsy.

Journal of neurophysiology
The objective of this study was to introduce a new machine learning guided by outcome of resective epilepsy surgery defined as the presence/absence of seizures to improve data mining for interictal pathological activities in neocortical epilepsy. Ele...

Recurring Functional Interactions Predict Network Architecture of Interictal and Ictal States in Neocortical Epilepsy.

eNeuro
Human epilepsy patients suffer from spontaneous seizures, which originate in brain regions that also subserve normal function. Prior studies demonstrate focal, neocortical epilepsy is associated with dysfunction, several hours before seizures. How do...

Probabilistic machine learning for the evaluation of presurgical language dominance.

Journal of neurosurgery
OBJECTIVE Providing a reliable assessment of language lateralization is an important task to be performed prior to neurosurgery in patients with epilepsy. Over the last decade, functional MRI (fMRI) has emerged as a useful noninvasive tool for langua...

Decoding intracranial EEG data with multiple kernel learning method.

Journal of neuroscience methods
BACKGROUND: Machine learning models have been successfully applied to neuroimaging data to make predictions about behavioral and cognitive states of interest. While these multivariate methods have greatly advanced the field of neuroimaging, their app...
