Quantification of seizure termination patterns reveals limited pathways to seizure end

Abstract: Seizures result from a variety of pathologies and exhibit great diversity in their dynamics. Although many studies have examined the dynamics of seizure initiation, few have investigated the mechanisms leading to seizure termination. We examined intracranial recordings from patients with intractable focal epilepsy to differentiate seizure termination patterns and investigate whether these termination patterns are indicative of different underlying mechanisms. Seizures (n=710) were recorded intracranially from… Show more

“…One promising avenue to understanding seizure pathways and their durations is developing computational models that capture not only specific stages of a seizure, but also neural dynamics throughout the seizure’s evolution. Many studies have focused on computationally analyzing 8 , 9 , 59–62 or modelling 5 , 13 , 63 , 64 variability in seizure onset and termination dynamics. For example, Jirsa et al 13 characterized seizures by the types of dynamic transitions that occurred at seizure start and end.…”

“…One promising avenue to understanding seizure pathways and their durations is developing computational models that capture not only specific stages of a seizure, but also neural dynamics throughout the seizure's evolution. Many studies have focused on computationally analysing (Afra et al, 2015;Alarcon et al, 1995;JimĂ©nez-JimĂ©nez et al, 2015;Lagarde et al, 2019;Salami et al, 2020Salami et al, , 2021 or modelling (Jirsa et al, 2014;Proix et al, 2018;Saggio et al, 2020;Wang et al, 2017) 2020) also developed a model that explains relationships between dynamotypes as well as more complex seizure dynamics such as status epilepticus. Such models can therefore also capture the seizure's full evolution, or dynamical pathway (Karoly et al, 2018;Wendling et al, 2002).…”

“…Many health conditions are challenging to treat due to changes in symptoms and disease severity over time (Barends et al, 2020;Fava et al, 2003;Frey et al, 2011). Recent research has emphasised that temporal fluctuations are also an important consideration in focal epilepsy, as seizures can change over time within the same patient (Cook et al, 2016;Karoly et al, 2018;Saggio et al, 2020;Salami et al, 2020Salami et al, , 2021Schroeder et al, 2020). Specifically, a patient's spatiotemporal seizure dynamics can vary in two main ways.…”

“…Single unit sorting was performed using Kilosort 3.0 17 (https://github.com/MouseLand/Kilosort) as well as Phy (https://github.com/cortex-lab/phy) Custom Matlab code (version R2020a) and python code in combination with open source code from the Fieldtrip toolbox (http://www.fieldtriptoolbox.org/) was used for the majority of the analyses with some code involving manual alignment available on Github (https://github.com/Center-For-Neurotechnology/CorticalNeuropixelProcessingPipeline). The burst suppression ratio (BSR) was computed using an automated method 26,27 (https://github.com/drasros/bs_detector_icueeg). Reconstruction of electrode locations and the manual tracing was done using the open source, free software Blender (https://www.blender.org/).…”
