Presurgical accuracy of dipole clustering in MRI-negative pediatric patients with epilepsy: Validation against intracranial EEG and resection
(2022)Objective: To assess the utility of interictal magnetic and electric source imaging (MSI and ESI) using dipole clustering in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-negative patients with drug resistant epilepsy (DRE). Methods: ... -
Functional connectivity discriminates epileptogenic states and predicts surgical outcome in children with drug resistant epilepsy
(2023)Normal brain functioning emerges from a complex interplay among regions forming networks. In epilepsy, these networks are disrupted causing seizures. Highly connected nodes in these networks are epilepsy surgery targets. ... -
Non-invasive mapping of epileptogenic networks predicts surgical outcome
(2023)Epilepsy is increasingly considered a disorder of brain networks. Studying these networks with functional connectivity can help identify hubs that facilitate the spread of epileptiform activity. Surgical resection of these ... -
Spike propagation mapping reveals effective connectivity and predicts surgical outcome in epilepsy
(2023)Neurosurgical intervention is the best available treatment for selected patients with drug resistant epilepsy. For these patients, surgical planning requires biomarkers that delineate the epileptogenic zone, the brain area ... -
Comparison of Commercial Negotiated Price and Cash Price between Physician-Owned Hospitals and Other Hospitals in the Same Hospital Referral Region

Is It All About the Form? Norm-vs Criterion-Referenced Ratings and Faculty Inter-Rater Reliability
(2023)Background: Little research to date has examined the quality of data obtained from resident performance evaluations. This study sought to address this need and compared inter-rater reliability obtained from norm-referenced ... -
New approaches to screening and management of neonatal hypoglycemia based on improved understanding of the molecular mechanism of hypoglycemia
(2023)For the past 70 years, controversy about hypoglycemia in newborn infants has focused on a numerical "definition of neonatal hypoglycemia", without regard to its mechanism. This ignores the purpose of screening newborns for ... -
Epidemiology of shoulder dislocations presenting to United States emergency departments: An updated ten-year study
(2023)Background Glenohumeral dislocation is a common injury that may predispose patients to chronic pain and instability. However, there is a paucity of current data available regarding the epidemiological trends of this injury. ... -
