Epilepsy as a Disorder of Cortical Network Organization

Open access
Kramer, Mark A., Cash, Sydney S.·2012·The Neuroscientist

Abstract

The brain is naturally considered as a network of interacting elements which, when functioning properly, produces an enormous range of dynamic, adaptable behavior. However, when elements of this network fail, pathological changes ensue, including epilepsy, one of the most common brain disorders. This review examines some aspects of cortical network organization that distinguish epileptic cortex from normal brain as well as the dynamics of network activity before and during seizures, focusing primarily on focal seizures. The review is organized around four phases of the seizure: the interictal period, onset, propagation, and termination. For each phase, the authors discuss the most common rhythmic characteristics of macroscopic brain voltage activity and outline the observed functional network features. Although the characteristics of functional networks that support the epileptic seizure remain an area of active research, the prevailing trends point to a complex set of network dynamics between, before, and during seizures.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
