Objective Studies have demonstrated the utility of closed-loop neuromodulation in treating focal onset seizures. There is an utmost need of neurostimulation therapy for generalized tonic-clonic seizures. The study goals are to map the thalamocortical network dynamics during the generalized convulsive seizures and identify targets for reliable seizure detection. Methods Local field potentials ...

background and objective: some neurologic complications may be detected after renal transplantation in children including tremor, peripheral neuropathy, altered level of consciousness and seizure. the aim of our study was to detect the prevalence of seizure after renal transplantation and its risk factors in pediatric age groups. methods: in this descriptive study, 102 patients 5-14 year old in...

In the past decade, Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT), a powerful time-frequency tool, has been widely used in computer-aided signal analysis of epileptic electroencephalography (EEG), such as the detection of seizures. One of the important hurdles in the applications of DWT is the settings of DWT, which are chosen empirically or arbitrarily in previous works. The objective of this study aimed t...

Epileptic seizure detection in a large database of Electroencephalography (EEG) signals needs to be a time constrained process for real-time analysis. Epileptic seizure detection algorithms are designed to obtain and analyze a group of neural signals and recognize the presence of seizure occurrence. The computational cost of the algorithms should be minimized to reduce the processing time and m...

Background and Objective: Some neurologic complications may be detected after renal transplantation in children including tremor, peripheral neuropathy, altered level of consciousness and seizure. The aim of our study was to detect the prevalence of seizure after renal transplantation and its risk factors in pediatric age groups. Methods: In this descriptive study, 102 patients 5-14 yea...

Great effort has been made toward defining and characterizing the pre-ictal state. Many studies have pursued the idea that there are recognizable electrographic (EEG-based) features which occur before overt clinical seizure activity. However, development of reliable EEG-based seizure detection and prediction algorithms has been difficult. In this review, we discuss the concepts of seizure detec...

Objective(s): Pioglitazone (PGZ), a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ) agonist, has significant neuroprotective effects and has been reported to regulate inflammatory processes.Materials and Methods: We evaluated the effects of PGZ on febrile seizure (FS) in rat pups. Three groups of male rat pups received intraperitoneal (IP) injections of PGZ (5, 10, and 20 mg/kg). Lipo...
