The article reports data concerning 260 patients with epilepsy who were treated by different variants of operations on the open brain. The duration of the catamnesis ranged from 3 to 17 years. It is shown that the results of the treatment are determined by some initial data, in particular, the features of the psychopathological and neuropsychological disorders and their degree. Criteria of the selection of patients with epilepsy and mental disorders for surgical management are formulated.

Emotion processing is an integral part of everyone's life. The basic neural circuits involved in emotion perception are becoming clear, though the emotion's cognitive processing remains under investigation. Utilizing the stereo-electroencephalograph with high temporal-spatial resolution, this study aims to decipher the neural pathway responsible for discriminating low-arousal and high-arousal emotions.

Significance: Despite the availability of various anti-seizure medications, nearly 1/3 of epilepsy patients experience drug-resistant seizures. These patients are left with invasive surgical options that do not guarantee seizure remission. The development of novel treatment options depends on elucidating the complex biology of seizures and brain networks.

Department of Clinical Sciences, Lund University, Malmö, Sweden.
Background: Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is an important differential diagnosis in unexplained syncope. Neurogenic OH (nOH) has been postulated to differ from non-neurogenic OH (non-nOH), yet pathophysiological differences are largely unexplored. We aimed to investigate etiology and tilt table test (TTT)-induced hemodynamic responses in symptomatic OH patients.
