[Outpatient long-term video EEG as new diagnostic approach in Germany: results of a feasibility study].

In Germany, long-term video EEG as the gold standard for the diagnostics of epilepsy and other seizure disorders, is currently only available for inpatient monitoring in a limited number of specialized centers. These limited monitoring capacities and the large amount of associated time and work resources lead to a significant waiting time for this important diagnostic procedure nationwide. New portable sensor technology and automated data analysis methods are creating opportunities for gold standard long-term video EEG assessments in outpatient settings, which may help to resolve this barrier.

Desynchronization Transitions in Adaptive Networks.

Adaptive networks change their connectivity with time, depending on their dynamical state. While synchronization in structurally static networks has been studied extensively, this problem is much more challenging for adaptive networks. In this Letter, we develop the master stability approach for a large class of adaptive networks.
