Distinguishing Parkinsonian Rest Tremor from Voluntary Hand Movements through Subthalamic and Cortical Activity

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder characterized mainly by resting tremor, bradykinesia, and rigidity. Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) has been widely used to treat the motor symptoms of PD (Krauss et al., 2021). However, DBS treatment also has significant side effects, most of which are caused by the extension of stimulat...

Early Prediction of Drug-Resistant Epilepsy Using Clinical and EEG Features Based on Convolutional Neural Network

Research Background and Purpose Epilepsy is a spontaneous and severe neurological disorder characterized by recurrent seizures, affecting approximately 50 million people worldwide [1]. Despite recent advances in anti-seizure medications (ASMs), drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) still affects 20% to 30% of epilepsy patients [1-3]. DRE patients face sign...

Single-Subject Cortical Morphological Brain Networks: Phenotypic Associations and Neurobiological Substrates

This paper is a study on the phenotypic associations and neurobiological bases of single-subject morphological brain networks. Combining multimodal and multiscale data, this study reveals the differences in morphological brain networks between genders, their potential as individual-specific markers, and their relationships with gene expression, lay...
