Article Synopsis
  • There is a known imbalance between excitatory and inhibitory signals in the brains of individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), but past research has shown varied results about the nature of this imbalance and how it connects to ASD symptoms.
  • This study aims to examine this E/I imbalance over time in children with ASD, using a large sample and multiple methods (like electrophysiology and MRI) to assess both brain function and behavioral symptoms.
  • By analyzing the relationship between E/I ratios and changes in symptom severity, the research seeks to better understand individual variability in ASD and could potentially lead to improved interventions.

Introduction: Continuous spikes and waves during slow sleep (CSWS) is an EEG pattern that appears during childhood, and is often associated with cognitive impairment. It can appear in the course of epileptic syndromes, as well as in benign epilepsy. The aim of this study is to analyse epidemiological and clinical characteristic of patients with CSWS, in order to describe possible predictive factors in their outcome.
