“…Left‐sided EDs from LTM (61%) and non‐LTM (62%) suggest little difference between groups, regardless of referral patterns. In our population, occurrence of EDs favoring the left hemisphere was both comparable to and lower than prior studies, two of which addressed referral bias (1–3).…”

“…It might be assumed that abnormal neurologic processes affect the two hemispheres with equal frequencies; however, past EEG‐based reports suggest that epileptiform discharges (EDs) favor the left hemisphere preferentially (1–3). In a study from our own institution, we found similar results, most notably in left‐handed patients undergoing long‐term monitoring (LTM) studies (4).…”

Summary:Purpose: Several EEG-based studies suggest that epileptiform activity originates from the left more than the right hemisphere. In contrast, other pathophysiologies such as stroke lateralize relatively symmetrically. Study of focal slowing and other EEG abnormalities allows assessment of favoring as well as referral and interpretation bias.Methods: The 1,331 consecutive adult EEG reports were reviewed for epileptiform discharges (EDs) and nonepileptiform focal slowing. Side of slowing or EDs, interpreting electoencephalographer, and whether the patient was undergoing long-term monitoring or routine EEG were tallied. Results were statistically analyzed.Results: Focal slowing occurred symmetrically; EDs favored the left hemisphere (p < 0.01).Conclusions: The left hemisphere may be more prone to epileptiform abnormalities in adults, but not to the nonspecific pathophysiologic processes that cause slowing. These findings suggest that potential interpretation bias does not influence left hemispheric favoring of EDs and instead may implicate a biologic etiology.

“…In this study, males tended to be significantly larger than females (Allen et al, 2002). As mentioned earlier, it was proposed that in humans, the laterality in the temporal lobe of the cerebral cortex may be related to laterality of the hippocampus (Rey et al, 1949;Flor-Henry, 1976). In animals, the male brain volumes in the lamb and bird were larger than those of the females (Sahin et al, 2001).…”

Previous studies have described paw preference and asymmetry in dog brains. Electrical activity of the dorsal hippocampus also indicated the existence of hippocampal asymmetry in dogs. In the present study, the possible paw and sex-related asymmetries and right-left differences in dog hippocampus were investigated. The hippocampus was dissected and weighed. Each hippocampus was cut into slices by the slicing apparatus placed horizontally on the tissues. The volumetric measurements were performed using the formula modified from the Cavalieri principle. The present study indicated the significant sex and paw differences and no right-left asymmetry in dog hippocampi. The morphological asymmetries in normal subjects might be related to functional hippocampal asymmetries in memory or in cognitive skills.

“…There is one particular group, likely at times to come to the notice of the law, in which clinical and electrical findings have been found in a correlation which might prove of particular value in this way (Rey, Pond 'and Evans, 1949). The clinical findings were not unlike those found in Eysenck's (1947) 'hysteria' factor, and Rey, Pond and Evans, in attributing this to a failure of maturation, also draw attention to Hill's observation in an earlier study, of a similarity to behaviour in children.…”
