Regional Slow Waves and Spindles in Human Sleep
Yuval Nir,Richard J. Staba,Thomas Andrillon,Thomas Andrillon,Vladyslav V. Vyazovskiy,Chiara Cirelli,Itzhak Fried,Itzhak Fried,Giulio Tononi +8 more
TL;DR: It is found that most sleep slow waves and the underlying active and inactive neuronal states occur locally, especially in late sleep, and that slow waves can propagate, usually from medial prefrontal cortex to the medial temporal lobe and hippocampus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative analysis of high-frequency oscillations (80-500 Hz) recorded in human epileptic hippocampus and entorhinal cortex.
TL;DR: The strong association between FR and regions of seizure initiation supports the view that FR reflects pathological hypersynchronous events crucially associated with seizure genesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-frequency oscillations : What is normal and what is not?
TL;DR: Investigation into the fundamental neuronal processes responsible for pHFOs could provide insights into basic mechanisms of epilepsy, and the potential for pH FOs to act as biomarkers for epileptogenesis and epileptogenicity is also discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sleep Spindles in Humans: Insights from Intracranial EEG and Unit Recordings
Thomas Andrillon,Yuval Nir,Richard J. Staba,Fabio Ferrarelli,Chiara Cirelli,Giulio Tononi,Itzhak Fried,Itzhak Fried +7 more
TL;DR: It is found that spindles occur across multiple neocortical regions, and less frequently also in the parahippocampal gyrus and hippocampus, and that deeper NREM sleep is associated with a reduction in spindle occurrence and spindle frequency.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-frequency oscillations (HFOs) in clinical epilepsy.
Julia Jacobs,Richard J. Staba,Eishi Asano,Hiroshi Otsubo,Joyce Y. Wu,Maeike Zijlmans,Ismail S. Mohamed,Philippe Kahane,François Dubeau,Vincent Navarro,Jean Gotman +10 more
TL;DR: Even if HFOs are promising biomarkers of epileptic tissue, there are still uncertainties about mechanisms of generation, methods of analysis, and clinical applicability, and large multicenter prospective studies are needed prior to widespread clinical application.
