癫痫患者中约20%~30%为难治性癫痫,手术是控制发作最有效的方法,常常可以改善患者的认知功能、行为学能力和生命质量。手术治疗的关键因素之一是准确定位致痫灶。目前有多种术前评估方法,这些方法分别从临床、神经电生理、影像学角度等提供致痫灶定位信息。目前定位致痫灶的金标准是颅内电极脑电图。建立多模式检测体系,最大程度综合各评估方法的优势,可提高致痫灶定位的准确性。近红外线波谱技术在癫痫中的应用以及致痫灶的生物标志物的研究将不断深入。  相似文献

Interictal spikes are a hallmark of cortical epileptogenicity; their spatial distribution in the cortex defines the so-called ‘irritative’ zone or spiking volume (SV). Delineating the SV precisely is a challenge during the presurgical evaluation of patients with epilepsy. Magnetoencephalography (MEG) recordings enable determination of the brain sources of epileptic spikes using source localization procedures. Most previous clinical MEG studies have relied on dipole modeling of epileptic spikes, which does not permit a volumetric estimation of the spiking cortex.In the present study, we propose a new source modeling procedure, Volumetric Imaging of Epileptic Spikes (VIES). In VIES, the SV is identified as the 3D region where sources of the high frequency activities (> 20 Hz) associated with epileptic spikes are distributed. We localized these sources using a beamforming approach (DICS, Dynamic Imaging of Coherent Neural Sources). To determine the optimal parameters and accuracy of the method, we compared the SV obtained by VIES with the SV defined by the invasive gold standard, intracranial stereotactic EEG recordings (SEEG), in 21 patients with focal epilepsy. Using rigorous validation criteria based on the exact anatomical location of SEEG contacts, we found that the overall sensitivity of VIES for detecting spiking SEEG contacts was 76% and its specificity for correctly identifying non-spiking SEEG contacts was 67%, indicating a good agreement between VIES and SEEG. Moreover, we found that classical dipole clustering was not informative in 9/21 patients, while VIES enable to delineate the SV in all patients. For the 12 patients having a SV delineated both with VIES and dipole clustering, VIES method had higher sensitivity and lower specificity. This proof-of-concept study shows that VIES is a promising approach to non-invasive estimation of the SV in focal epilepsy.  相似文献

To compare magnetoencephalography (MEG) with scalp electroencephalography (EEG) in the detection of interictal spikes in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), we simultaneously recorded MEG and scalp EEG with a whole-scalp neuromagnetometer in 46 TLE patients. We visually searched interictal spikes on MEG and EEG channels and classified them into three types according to their presentation on MEG alone (M-spikes), EEG alone (E-spikes), or concomitantly on both modalities (M/E-spikes). The M-spikes and M/E-spikes were localized with MEG equivalent current dipole modeling. We analyzed the relative contribution of MEG and EEG in the overall yield of spike detection and also compared M-spikes with M/E-spikes in terms of dipole locations and strengths. During the 30- to 40-min MEG recordings, interictal spikes were obtained in 36 (78.3%) of the 46 patients. Among the 36 patients, most spikes were M/E-spikes (68.3%), some were M-spikes (22.1%), and some were E-spikes (9.7%). In comparison with EEG, MEG gave better spike yield in patients with lateral TLE. Sources of M/E- and M-spikes were situated in the same anatomical regions, whereas the average dipole strength was larger for M/E- than M-spikes. In conclusion, some interictal spikes appeared selectively on either MEG or EEG channels in TLE patients although more spikes were simultaneously identified on both modalities. Thus, simultaneous MEG and EEG recordings help to enhance spike detection. Identification of M-spikes would offer important localization of irritative foci, especially in patients with lateral TLE.  相似文献

The present study was aimed at investigating the accuracy of electric source reconstruction in the presurgical evaluation of epilepsy patients. Spontaneous EEG activity of 14 patients with focal intracerebral epileptogenic lesions was analyzed by source reconstruction based on high-resolution EEG (64-channel system) and a boundary element method head model accounting for the individual head anatomy. Equivalent dipole modeling was applied to focal delta and interictal epileptiform activity. The localization results were validated quantitatively by comparison with the sites of the structural lesions. In 6 of 9 patients with focal delta activity, the maximum of dipole concentration was closer than 10 mm to the nearest lesion margin and mostly at the border or within pathologically altered cortical tissue. In all 11 patients showing interictal epileptiform activity, the localization results were found in the same lobe as the lesion. In almost half of them, they were closer than 10 mm to the lesion margin. Patients with larger distances (22-36 mm) mostly had hippocampal atrophy or sclerosis. Their dipole locations did not appear in the affected hippocampus, but in the adjacent temporal neocortex. In conclusion, electric source reconstruction applied to both abnormal slow and interictal epileptiform EEG activity seems to be a valuable additional noninvasive component in the multimodal presurgical evaluation of epilepsy patients.  相似文献

Interictal spikes in patients with epilepsy may be detected by either electroencephalography (EEG) (E-spikes) or magnetoencephalography (MEG) (M-spikes), or both MEG and EEG (E/M-spikes). Localization and amplitude were compared between E/M-spikes and M-spikes in 7 adult patients with extratemporal epilepsy to evaluate the clinical significance of MEG spikes. MEG and EEG were simultaneously measured using a helmet-shaped MEG system with planar-type gradiometers and scalp electrodes of the international 10-20 system. Sources of E/M-spikes and M-spikes were estimated by an equivalent current dipole (ECD) model for MEG at peak latency. Each subject showed 9 to 20 (mean 13.4) E/M-spikes and 9 to 31 (mean 16.3) M-spikes. No subjects showed significant differences in the ECD locations between E/M- and M-spikes. ECD moments of the E/M-spikes were significantly larger in 2 patients and not significantly different in the other 5 patients. The similar localizations of E/M-spikes and M-spikes suggest that combination of MEG and EEG is useful to detect more interictal spikes in patients with extratemporal epilepsy. The smaller tendency of ECD amplitude of the M-spikes than E/M-spikes suggests that scalp EEG may overlook small tangential spikes due to background brain noise. Localization value of M-spikes is clinically equivalent to that of E/M-spikes.  相似文献

Migraine-like features sometimes characterize the headache that follows epileptic seizure (postictal headache, PIH). We compared patients with different types of epilepsy to investigate the association between migraine-like PIH and seizure type. Subjects comprised 364 patients with partial epilepsy. Epilepsy types were temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE, n = 177), frontal lobe epilepsy (FLE, n = 116), and occipital lobe epilepsy (OLE, n = 71). Patients participated in a structured interview pertaining to PIH as well as interictal headache and family history of migraine. Headaches were classified according to the International Headache Society criteria, which was modified for this study. Forty percent had PIH and 26% of these patients had migraine-like PIH. Migraine-like PIH occurred significantly more often in cases of TLE and OLE than in cases of FLE. In addition, the incidence of interictal migraine headache was significantly higher in patients with migraine-like PIH. These results suggest that migraine-like PIH is related to particular regions of epileptogenic focus and that susceptibility to migraine headache predisposes to migraine-like PIH.  相似文献

EEG-fMRI is a non-invasive technique that allows the investigation of epileptogenic networks in patients with epilepsy. Lately, BOLD changes occurring before the spike were found in patients with generalized epilepsy. The study of metabolic changes preceding spikes might improve our knowledge of spike generation. We tested this hypothesis in patients with idiopathic and symptomatic focal epilepsy.Eleven consecutive patients were recorded at 3 T: five with idiopathic focal and 6 with symptomatic focal epilepsy. Thirteen spike types were analyzed separately. Statistical analysis was performed using the timing of spikes as events, modeled with HRFs peaking between − 9 s and + 9 s around the spike. HRFs were calculated the most focal BOLD response. Eleven of the thirteen studies showed prespike BOLD responses. Prespike responses were more focal than postspike responses. Three studies showed early positive followed by later negative BOLD responses in the spike field. Three had early positive BOLD responses in the spike field, which remained visible in the later maps. Three others had positive BOLD responses in the spike field, later propagating to surrounding areas. HRFs peaked between − 5 and + 6 s around the spike timing. No significant EEG changes could be identified prior to the spike.BOLD changes prior to the spike frequently occur in focal epilepsies. They are more focal than later BOLD changes and strongly related to the spike field. Early changes may result from increased neuronal activity in the spike field prior to the EEG spike and reflect an event more localized than the spike itself.  相似文献

This preliminary study sought to localize epileptogenic regions in patients with partial epilepsy by analysis of interictal EEG activity utilizing variable resolution electromagnetic tomography (VARETA), a three-dimensional quantitative electroencephalographic (QEEG) frequency-domain distributed source modeling technique. The very narrow band (VNB) spectra spanned the frequency range 0.39 Hz to 19.1 Hz, in 0.39 Hz steps. These VNB spectra were compared to normative data and transformed to provide Z-scores for every scalp derivation, and the spatial distributions of the probable EEG generators of the most abnormal values were displayed on slices from a probabilistic MRI atlas. Each voxel was color-coded to represent the significance of the deviation relative to age appropriate normative values. We compared the resulting three-dimensional images to the localization of epileptogenic regions based on invasive intracranial EEG recordings of seizure onsets. The VARETA image indicated abnormal interictal spectral power values in regions of seizure onset identified by invasive monitoring, mainly in delta and theta range (1.5 to 8.0 Hz). The VARETA localization of the most abnormal voxel was congruent with the epileptogenic regions identified by intracranial recordings with regard to hemisphere in all 6 cases, and with regard to lobe in 5 cases. In contrast, abnormal findings with routine EEG agreed with invasive monitoring with regard to hemisphere in 3 cases and with regard to lobe in 2 cases. These results suggest that analysis of background interictal EEG utilizing distributed source models should be investigated further in clinical epilepsy.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo estimate anti-seizure medication (ASM) treatment burden and its effects on health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in new-onset childhood epilepsy with centrotemporal spikes (CECTS) using different treatment approaches in Kazakhstan.MethodsForty-three patients were followed prospectively during 2015 to 2020 for at least 2 years. Patients were divided into three groups: (1) history of ≤3 seizures (n = 32); (2) ≥4 seizures (n = 6); (3) cerebral palsy coexisting with CECTS (n = 5). The first group was subdivided into treated (n = 8) and observed (n = 24) subgroups. The shortened Quality of Life in Childhood Epilepsy Questionnaire (QOLCE-55) was completed by parents after 6 months of follow-up.ResultsAt the end of the study, all children had a sustained remission from seizures for at least 2 years. Differences were identified in emotional, social, and physical subscales between patients in the low seizure frequency group. Signs of low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, limited social interaction owing to pharmacotherapy, painful medical procedures, and stigma were reasons for decreased HRQOL in the treated subgroup. Overall HRQOL in treated (89.2 ± 5.2) patients was significantly decreased compared with observed children with low seizure frequency (98.0 ± 3.0).ConclusionASM therapy does not necessarily improve and may decrease HRQOL in children with low seizure frequency CECTS.  相似文献

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study is to evaluate endothelial function in migraineurs subjects during the asymptomatic period. BACKGROUND: Migraine has been proposed as a risk factor for cerebrovascular events. The underlying mechanisms that relate these 2 pathologies are unknown. Nitric oxide (NO) has been proposed as the final causative molecule of migraine. Increased NO metabolites concentrations have been reported in migraineurs subjects during acute migraine attacks, but there is no evidence indicating alterations in endothelial NO release during the symptom free period in theses subjects. DESIGN AND METHODS: Fifty migraineurs subjects and 25 healthy subjects matched by gender and age were included. Every subject underwent a complete examination that included medical history, physical examination, resting electrocardiogram, forearm flow-mediated vasodilation (FMD), blood determinations of fasting nitrates and nitrites (NO(2) (-)+ NO(3) (-)), glucose, lipid profile, creatinine, C-reactive protein, and blood cell count. RESULTS: No differences in FMD or NO(2) (-)+ NO(3) (-) were detected among groups. The only difference between migraineurs and control subjects was a higher mean blood pressure 92.1 (8.8) mmHg versus 86.7 (8.2) mmHg P= .01. CONCLUSION: The endothelial function is not altered during the interictal period in migraineurs subjects.  相似文献

BACKGROUNDEpilepsy is a syndrome characterized by transient, rigid, paroxysmal, and repetitive central nervous system dysfunction. Prevention, control, and improvement of cognitive and behavioral dysfunction are of great significance for improving the patients’ intellectual development and quality of life. Electroencephalograms (EEG) can predict an accelerated decline in cognitive function.AIMTo determine the clinical and EEG characteristics and treatment results of benign epilepsy in spiking children.METHODSA total of 106 cases of benign epilepsy in children with myocardial spines treated at our hospital from January 2017 to January 2020 were selected. Differences in clinical data and EGG characteristics between treatment-effective/-ineffective patients were analyzed, and children’s intellectual development before and after treatment evaluated using the Gesell Development Diagnostic Scale.RESULTSEEG showed that the discharge proportion in the awake and sleep periods was 66.04%, and the peak/peak discharge was mainly single-sided, accounting for 81.13%, while the discharge generalization accounted for 31.13%. There was no significant difference in any of these variables between sexes and ages (P > 0.05). The proportion of patients with early onset (< 5 years old) and seizure frequency > 3 times/half a year was 40.00% and 60.00%, respectively; the incidence rate and seizure frequency in the younger age group (< 5 years old) were significantly higher than those in the treatment-effective group (P < 0.05), while the discharge index was significantly lower than that in the treatment-effective group (P < 0.05). The discharge index was negatively correlated with fine motor skill and language development (r = -0.274 and -0.247, respectively; P < 0.05), but not with the rest (P > 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that low age onset (< 5 years old) and seizure frequency were the factors affecting ineffective-treatment of benign epilepsy in children (odds ratio = 11.304 and 5.784, respectively; P < 0.05). The discharge index of the responsive group after treatment was significantly lower than that of the unresponsive group (P < 0.05). However, there was no significant difference between groups after treatment in gross and fine motor skills, adaptability, language, and personal social development (P > 0.05).CONCLUSIONThe EEG of children with benign epilepsy due to spinal wave in central time zone has characteristic changes, and the therapeutic effect is influenced by age of onset and attack frequency.  相似文献
