[HTML][HTML] Electrical stimulation in animal models of epilepsy: A review on cellular and electrophysiological aspects

F da Silva Fiorin, MA e Silva, AC Rodrigues - Life Sciences, 2021 - Elsevier
Epilepsy is a debilitating condition, primarily refractory individuals, leading to the search for
new efficient therapies. Electrical stimulation is an important method used for years to treat …

Phase-lag synchronization analysis in complex systems with directed inter-relations

VSG Martins, AC Rodrigues, HA Cerdeira… - The European Physical …, 2016 - Springer
In this work, we proposed a novel way to estimate phase-lag synchronization in coupled
systems. This approach was applied into two systems: a directed-coupled Rössler-Lorenz …

How important are hubs for the generation of extreme events in networks of excitable units?

T Rings, G Ansmann, K Lehnertz - The European Physical Journal Special …, 2017 - Springer
We study scale-free networks of FitzHugh-Nagumo units whose collective dynamics exhibits
rare and recurrent events of high amplitude (extreme events). We investigate which units …

The influence of hubs in the structure of a neuronal network during an epileptic seizure

AC Rodrigues, HA Cerdeira, BS Machado - The European Physical …, 2016 - Springer
In this work, we propose changes in the structure of a neuronal network with the intention to
provoke strong synchronization to simulate episodes of epileptic seizure. Starting with a …

Classification and detection of Critical Transitions: from theory to data

D Proverbio - 2022 - orbilu.uni.lu
From population collapses to cell-fate decision, critical phenomena are abundant in complex
real-world systems. Among modelling theories to address them, the critical transitions …

Measures for brain connectivity analysis: nodes centrality and their invariant patterns

LMU da Silva, CA Baltazar, CA Silva… - The European Physical …, 2017 - Springer
The high dynamical complexity of the brain is related to its small-world topology, which
enable both segregated and integrated information processing capabilities. Several …

Analyzing epileptic network dynamics via time-variant partial directed coherence

BW Liu, JW Mao, YJ Shi, QC Lu… - 2016 IEEE …, 2016 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Epilepsy is growingly considered as a brain network disorder. In this study, epileptiform
discharges were induced by low-Mg 2+ in mouse entorhinal cortex-hippocampal slices, and …

Variability of complex networks parameters on effective connectivity analysis: an absence epilepsy case

VSGM Tenório, RCS Freire… - 2021 5th International …, 2021 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In recent years, some studies brought the complex networks theory into neuroscience.
Connectivity patterns are widely studied and vary from the data acquisition method: fMRI …

Synchronization structure of evolving epileptic networks using cross-entropy

AC Rodrigues, LOS Ferreira Caboclo… - The European Physical …, 2018 - Springer
In this paper we present connectivity patterns of evolving large scale epileptic networks. We
employed a cross-entropy measure in the frequency domain on EEG signals to infer the …

Dynamics in the neural network of an in vitro epilepsy model

BW Liu, JW Mao, YJ Shi, QC Lu… - … Journal of Data …, 2017 - inderscienceonline.com
Epilepsy is growingly considered as a brain network disorder. In this study, epileptiform
discharges induced by low-Mg2+ were recorded with a microelectrode array. Dynamic …
