Deep learning uncovers histological patterns of YAP1/TEAD activity related to disease aggressiveness in cancer patients.

Over the last decade, Hippo signaling has emerged as a major tumor-suppressing pathway. Its dysregulation is associated with abnormal expression of and -family genes. Recent works have highlighted the role of YAP1/TEAD activity in several cancers and its potential therapeutic implications.

Interictal epileptiform discharges show distinct spatiotemporal and morphological patterns across wake and sleep.

Presurgical evaluation of mesial temporal and neocortical focal pharmacoresistant epilepsy patients using intracranial EEG recordings has led to the generation of extensive data on interictal epileptiform discharges, located within or remotely from seizure onset zones. In this study, we used this data to investigate how interictal epileptiform discharges are modulated and how their spatial distribution changes during wake and sleep and analysed the relationship between these discharge events and seizure onset zones. Preoperative evaluation data from 11 adult patients with focal pharmacoresistant epilepsy were extracted from the Epilepsiae database.

Zero-crossing patterns reveal subtle epileptiform discharges in the scalp EEG.

Clinical diagnosis of epilepsy depends heavily on the detection of interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) from scalp electroencephalographic (EEG) signals, which by purely visual means is far from straightforward. Here, we introduce a simple signal analysis procedure based on scalp EEG zero-crossing patterns which can extract the spatiotemporal structure of scalp voltage fluctuations. We analyzed simultaneous scalp and intracranial EEG recordings from patients with pharmacoresistant temporal lobe epilepsy.
