Treatment of patients suffering from severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) commonly involves sedation and mechanical ventilation during prolonged stay in the intensive care unit. Continuous EEG is often monitored in these patients to detect epileptic seizures. It has also been suggested that EEG has prognostic value regarding the outcome of the treatment. In this study the ability of 186 qEEG features to predict the outcome of the treatment of TBI patients is assessed. The features are based on the power spectrum of the EEG. The data underlying the study contains long term (over 24 h) recordings from 20 patients treated in the postoperative intensive care unit of the North Estonian Medical Center. 12 qEEG features were found to have predictive value when evaluated by calculating the area under the receiver operating curve constructed from feature probabilities.

Complex childhood trauma (CCT) involves prolonged exposure to severe interpersonal stressors, leading to deficits in executive functioning and self-regulation during adolescence, a critical period for neurodevelopment. While qEEG parameters, particularly alpha oscillations, have been proposed as potential biomarkers for trauma, empirical documentation in developmental samples is limited. .

The diagnostic and prognostic value of quantitative electroencephalogram (qEEG) in the the onset of postoperative delirium (POD) remains an area of inquiry. We aim to determine whether qEEG could assist in the diagnosis of early POD in cardiac surgery patients. We prospectively studied a cohort of cardiac surgery patients undergoing qEEG for evaluation of altered mental status.

Persistent motor deficits are highly prevalent among post-stroke survivors, contributing significantly to disability. Despite the prevalence of these deficits, the precise mechanisms underlying motor recovery after stroke remain largely elusive. The exploration of motor system reorganization using functional neuroimaging techniques represents a compelling yet challenging avenue of research.

Purpose: This study aims to investigate using eyes-open (EO) and eyes-closed (EC) resting-state EEG data to diagnose cognitive impairment using machine learning methods, enhancing timely intervention and cost-effectiveness in dementia research.
Participants And Methods: A total of 890 participants aged 40-90 were included in the study, comprising 269 healthy controls (HC), 356 individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and 265 with Alzheimer's disease (AD) from a cohort study. Resting-state EEG (rEEG) signals were recorded and transformed into relative power spectral density (PSD) data for analysis.
