EEGLAB: an open source toolbox for analysis of single-trial EEG dynamics including independent component analysis.

THE DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF EXPERIMENTS. By Oscar Kempthorne. New York, John Wiley and Sons, Inc., 1952. 631 pp. $8.50. This book by a teacher of statistics (as well as a consultant for \"experimenters\") is a comprehensive study of the philosophical background for the statistical design of experiment. It is necessary to have some facility with algebraic notation and manipulation to be able to use the volume intelligently. The problems are presented from the theoretical point of view, without such practical examples as would be helpful for those not acquainted with mathematics. The mathematical justification for the techniques is given. As a somewhat advanced treatment of the design and analysis of experiments, this volume will be interesting and helpful for many who approach statistics theoretically as well as practically. With emphasis on the \"why,\" and with description given broadly, the author relates the subject matter to the general theory of statistics and to the general problem of experimental inference.

The Design and Analysis of Experiments

Co-Planar Stereotaxic Atlas of the Human Brain—3-Dimensional Proportional System: An Approach to Cerebral Imaging, J. Talairach, P. Tournoux. Georg Thieme Verlag, New York (1988), 122 pp., 130 figs. DM 268

I have developed "tennis elbow" from lugging this book around the past four weeks, but it is worth the pain, the effort, and the aspirin. It is also worth the (relatively speaking) bargain price. Including appendixes, this book contains 894 pages of text. The entire panorama of the neural sciences is surveyed and examined, and it is comprehensive in its scope, from genomes to social behaviors. The editors explicitly state that the book is designed as "an introductory text for students of biology, behavior, and medicine," but it is hard to imagine any audience, interested in any fragment of neuroscience at any level of sophistication, that would not enjoy this book. The editors have done a masterful job of weaving together the biologic, the behavioral, and the clinical sciences into a single tapestry in which everyone from the molecular biologist to the practicing psychiatrist can find and appreciate his or

Figure 1: Sleep analysis using AAR parameters (healthy subject). On top, the hypnogram scored by an expert is shown. Below, the classification with AAR parameters using channels C3-M2 and C4-M1 is given for deep sleep (green line), REM (red line) and awake (blue line) – the highest curve indicates the appropriate sleep stage. The bottom plot shows the variance of the inverse filtered process (logarithmic scale). Spikes indicate artefacts and transient events. EEG processing The EEG of polygraphic recordings (SIESTA database)3 from eight European sleep labs was analysed; ECG artefacts and line interference were minimised with regression analysis and 50Hz notch filtering. The data were downsampled to 100Hz. Next, the AAR parameters were estimated with Kalman filtering assuming a multivariate random walk of AAR parameters2,4.

Die Effekte von Isofluran auf zerebrale und kardiovaskuläre Parameter wurden an 9 neurologisch unauffälligen Patienten untersucht. Im speziellen wurden dabei 2 Kanäle EEG-Leistungsspektren, akustisch evozierte Hirnstammpotentiale (BAEP), zervikale und kortikale somatosensorisch evozierte Potentiale (SEP), Herzrate (HR) , Herzratenvariabilität (HRV) und nicht-invasiv ermittelter Blutdruck (BP) unter folgenden Bedingungen untersucht: Isofluran mit N2O (1:1) bei 0,4; 0,6; 1,0 und 1,3 MAC sowie unter der Gabe von 100 % O2 und bei Spontanatmung.

Monitoring of brainstem auditory evoked potentials in all-night polysomnographic recordings

ZusammenfassungZiel dieser Arbeit war es, bei einem Patienten mit kompletter C5-Tetraplegie die Greiffunktion mittels funktioneller Elektrostimulation (FES) wiederherzustellen. Mit 3 Paar Oberflächenelektroden und einer orthetischen Handgelenkstabilisierung konnte ein einfacher Spitzgriff realisiert werden.Die FES wurde entweder mit einem Schalter am Rollstuhl oder erstmalig mit einem EEG-basierten Brain-Computer-Interface (BCI) gesteuert. Mit dem Einsatz dieses Stimulationsystems war es unserem Patienten zum 1. Mal nach dem Unfall möglich, selbständig und ohne fremde Hilfe aus einem Glas zu trinken.AbstractThe aim of this study was to restore the grasp function of a tetraplegic patient with a C5 spinal cord injury (SCI) by means of functional electrical stimulation (FES). Using three pairs of surface electrodes and orthotic wrist stabilisation a simple palmar grasp was realised.The FES was controlled with a switch mounted on a wheelchair or—for the first time—with an EEG-based brain-computer interface (BCI). Application of this stimulation system enabled the patient to drink for the first time after the accident from a glass without any additional help.
