Spatio-temporal source modeling (STSM) of event-related potentials was used to estimate the loci and characteristics of cortical activity evoked by acoustic stimulation in normal hearing subjects and by electrical stimulation in cochlear implant (CI) subjects. In both groups of subjects, source solutions obtained for the N1/P2 complex were located in the superior half of the temporal lobe in the head model. Results indicate that it may be possible to determine whether stimulation of different implant channels activates different regions of cochleotopically organized auditory cortex. Auditory system activation can be assessed further by examining the characteristics of the source wave forms. For example, subjects whose cochlear implants provided auditory sensations and normal hearing subjects had similar source activity. In contrast, a subject in whom implant activation evoked eyelid movements exhibited different source wave forms. STSM analysis may provide an electrophysiological technique for guiding rehabilitation programs based on the capabilities of the individual implant user and for disentangling the complex response patterns to electrical stimulation of the brain. 相似文献

We studied the relationship between occipital P100 and frontal N100 in visual evoked potentials produced by pattern reversal in normal subjects and two groups of patients. Recording derivation was critical for interpretation since both Fz and Oz electrode sites are active. In 9 patients, but no normal subjects, P100 was absent. In these patients, use of a standard Oz-Fz montage resulted in the erroneous impression of a ‘normal’ P100 since a downward deflection was produced by the inverting effect of the amplifier on an intact N100 at Fz. When both P100 and N100 were present (at Oz and Fz respectively), their latencies were usually similar but not identical which contributed to apparent latency shifts or W-shaped wave forms in the Oz-Fz derivation. We conclude that use of a non-cephalic or relatively inactive scalp position (such as the mastoid) should be used as a reference site in addition to Fz to reduce interpretive errors. 相似文献

Spline generated surface Laplacian temporal wave forms are presented as a method to improve both spatial and temporal resolution of evoked EEG responses. Middle latency and the N1 components of the auditory evoked response were used to compare potential-based methods with surface Laplacian methods in the time domain. Results indicate that surface Laplacians provide better estimates of underlying cortical activity than do potential wave forms. Spatial discrimination among electrode sites was markedly better with surface Laplacian than with potential wave forms. Differences in the number and latencies of peaks, and their topographic distributions, were observed for surface Laplacian, particularly during the time period encompassing the middle latency responses. Focal activities were observed in surface Laplacian wave forms and topographic maps which were in agreement with previous findings from auditory evoked response studies. Methodological issues surrounding the application of spline methods to the time domain are also discussed. Surface Laplacian methods in the time domain appear to provide an improved way for studying evoked EEG responses by increasing temporal and spatial resolution of component characteristics. 相似文献

We have described a method for identifying component wave forms of evoked potentials by reference to a model of the dynamic behavior of neuronal systems. The method parsimoniously reproduces measured data and provides a means for utilizing a priori information from sets of experimental data to discriminate between experimental variables. The method appears successful in quantifying the physiologic variability in the amplitude, shape and latency of EP component wave forms. 相似文献

Brain-stem auditory evoked potentials (BAEPs) were recorded in 10 common marmosets (Callithrix jacchus) to investigate the effects of recording electrode configurations, stimulus rate, and stimulus frequency on BAEP wave forms and peak latencies. Tone burst stimulations were used to evaluate the effects of pure tone on BAEP wave forms. Five positive peaks superimposed on positive and negative slow potentials were identified in the BAEP recorded at the linkage between the vertex and the dorsal base of the ear ipsilateral to a monaural stimulus. When the reference electrode was placed at the ipsilateral mastoid or the neck, the amplitudes of positive and negative slow potentials and the incidence of wave I increased. There were no significant changes in peak latencies of BAEP waves with changes in stimulus rate from 5 to 20/s. It was possible to record the BAEPs in response to tone burst stimulations at frequencies extending from 0.5 to 99 kHz. Wave I appeared apparently at high stimulus frequencies; while waves III to V, at low frequencies. Wave II was recorded at frequencies ranging from 0.5 to 99 kHz and comprised a superposition of 2 or 3 potentials. 相似文献

For clinical purposes the VEP is generally recorded from the mid-occipital region referenced to the vertex or mid-frontal region. This may lead to interpretive errors that can be avoided if a relatively inactive reference point, such as linked mastoids, is used simultaneously. The additional recording derivation may also be helpful in clarifying aberrant or ambiguous wave forms. The diagnostic yield from the two montages is similar, although the linked-mastoid reference provides a greater number of technically inadequate recordings due to smaller size of P100 and increased contamination by muscle artifact. 相似文献

In 25 healthy volunteers the supraorbital nerve was stimulated and evoked potentials were recorded. Leads were placed on the scalp and along the ipsilateral eyebrow-mastoid line and were either referred to a non-cephalic reference (on the neck, or Cv7) or linked to form bipolar derivations. As template wave form was chosen the one obtained from derivation Cz-Cv7, which had an initial triphasic component with negative (SW1a), positive (SW1b), negative (SW1c) polarity (mean latencies 0.63, 0.95 and 1.43 msec), followed by 2 negative waves (SW2 and SW3, mean latencies of 2.20 and 2.89 msec). A final positive wave could be observed in most cases (SP4, mean latency of 4.08 msec). The records collected from the various derivations showed that each component (SW1, SW2, SW3 and SP4) had a different behaviour, thus suggesting separate origins. SW1 would originate from a volley travelling from the point of stimulation towards the mastoid, probably across the ophthalmic branch of the trigeminal nerve. The subsequent components would be generated by deeply situated structures: double pulse stimulation suggests that SW1, SW2 and SW3 are generated before the first synapse, whereas SP4 is a postsynaptic event. A strong similarity exists between the components evoked by stimulation of the supraorbital and the infraorbital nerves. Local anaesthetic block of the frontal nerve on the stimulated side and monitoring of the EMG activity of m. orbicularis oculi and m. frontalis ruled out any muscle contamination of the responses described in this paper. 相似文献

Dynamic time warping is a procedure whereby portions of a temporal sequence of values are stretched or shrunk to make it similar to another sequence. This procedure can be used to align the brain-stem auditory evoked potentials recorded from different subjects prior to averaging. The resultant warp-average more closely resembles the wave form of a typical subject than the conventional average. Dynamic time warping can also be used to compare one brain-stem auditory evoked potential to another. This comparison can show the differences that result from changes in a stimulus parameter such as intensity or repetition rate. When a patient's wave form is compared to a normal template, warping can identify the peaks in the patient's wave form that correspond most closely to the peaks in the normal template. Compared to an experienced human interpreter, warping is very accurate in identifying the waves of normal brain-stem auditory evoked potentials (error rate between 0 and 4%) and reasonably accurate in identifying the peaks in abnormal wave forms (error rate between 3 and 18%). 相似文献

Scalp recording of electrical events allows evaluation of human cerebral function, but contributions of the specific brain structures generating the recorded activity are ambiguous. This problem is ill-posed and cannot be solved without auxiliary physiological knowledge about the spatio-temporal characteristics of the generators' activity. In our source localization by model-based wavelet-type decomposition, scalp recorded signals are decomposed into a combination of wavelets, each of which may describe the coherent activity of a population of neurons. We chose the Hermite functions (derived from the Gaussian function to form mono-, bi- and triphasic wave forms) as the mathematical model to describe the temporal pattern of mass neural activity.For each wavelet we solve the inverse problem for two symmetrically positioned and oriented dipoles, one of which attains zero magnitude when a single source is more suitable. We use the wavelet to model the temporal activity pattern of the symmetrical dipoles. By this we reduce the dimension of inverse problem and find a plausible solution. Once the number and the initial parameters of the sources are given, we can apply multiple source localization to correct the solution for generators with overlapping activities.Application of the procedure to subcortical and cortical components of somatosensory evoked potentials demonstrates its feasibility. 相似文献

位于青藏高原腹地的黄河源地区生态环境脆弱,面临生物多样性锐减、生态系统退化等问题,黄河源区生态系统保护及其高质量发展已成为国家的重点战略之一。土地利用与植被覆盖是影响生境质量的重要因素,定量化土地利用方式、强度及格局和植被覆盖格局对生态质量影响的研究越来越受到关注,但其对黄河源区生态质量的耦合效应尚不明确。基于2000年和2015年黄河源区土地利用类型及生长季归一化植被指数(NDVI),采用InVEST模型探究了不同时期黄河源区生境质量时空变化,并采用地理加权回归(GWR)模型揭示了生境质量对土地利用和植被覆盖变化的空间响应特征。结果表明,2000年与2015年土地利用类型变化主要为未利用土地向草地的转移。植被覆盖变化方面,源区生长季NDVI整体上升。从生境质量的空间分布来看,黄河源区生境质量总体呈现南高北低的空间格局,高值分布在南部及中部地区,低值分布在北部布青山、东北部高海拔区及黄河乡的黄河沿岸。相较于2000年,2015年黄河源区生境质量平均提高11.47%。草地面积和NDVI与生境质量均呈显著正相关关系,其中NDVI是提高黄河源区生境质量的重要驱动因子。研究结果突出了NDVI对提高黄河源区生境质量的主导作用,可为未来源区生态保护提供借鉴。 相似文献

Spontaneous and evoked activity of caudate nucleus neurons was recorded extracellularly in acute experiments on cats. Different forms of potentials were found by analysis of the results. The potentials recorded belong to three types: ordinary action potentials; prepotentials or incomplete spikes differing from ordinary action potentials in their lower amplitude and slower decline, and complex discharges in which a spike of somewhat reduced amplitude is followed by a slow positive-negative wave. In the spontaneous activity prepotentials were observed both in complete action potentials and in isolation. The frequency of the complex discharges was 0.5–1 per second. The slow wave of these discharges blocked prepotential and action potential formation. The origin of these forms of potentials in neurons of the caudate nucleus is discussed and they are compared with analogous forms of potentials described for the Purkinje cells of the cerebellum.A.

The neuromagnetic source localizations of the auditory M100 and the mismatch field (MMF) were studied using a large-array biomagnetometer. Standard tones of 1000 Hz and deviant tones of 1050 Hz were delivered with 90% and 10% probability, respectively. Wave forms of the derived MMF were computed by examining difference wave forms between the responses to the deviants and the responses to the standards preceding (D-P) and following (D-F) the deviants as well as to all remaining standards (D-A). The subset of standards preceding the deviants was used for a more realistic comparison with the set of deviants (having the same number of epochs and a similar signal-to-noise ratio). while the subset of standards following the deviants served to answer the question whether those standards also elicit an MMF. The MMF deflections were compared with each other, with the “native” MMF occurring in response to the deviants, and with wave M100. (The MMF as it appears in the unprocessed response to the deviants was termed “native” for an easy distinction from the “derived” MMF).Our results demonstrate a distinct MMF deflection, corresponding in latency to the simultaneously recorded fronto-central electrical MMN. Source analysis, using a single moving dipole model, showed the same spatial localization for the native MMF and for the different derived MMFs. The MMF source location turned out to be significantly anterior, medial and inferior relative to the sources of the M100. The present data also demonstrate that a minor frequency deviation may not activate measurably different M100 generators, yet be sufficient to trigger the nearby but spatially distinct mismatch generator. 相似文献

Painful stimulation of tooth pulp and of the maxillary gingiva was undertaken in 16 volunteers. Short-latency evoked potentials (15–20 msec) were recorded over 800 trials in each case at F3-P3 of F4-P4, and the resultant averaged wave forms were compared. The gingival wave was distinct in all subjects and could be averaged across subjects while the dental waves were either noise or very inconsistent over subjects. Averaging of the dental wave forms across subjects yielded an uninterpretable result. It was clear that dental evoked potentials could not be recorded at these sites. These findings could be explained by either or both of two hypotheses: (1) dental afferents are predominantly small fiber, nociceptive end organs that conduct more slowly than soft tissue afferents whereas gingival stimulation activates both large and small fiber populations; and (2) dental representation in somatosensory cortex is different and phylogenetically more primitive than that of neighboring soft tissue. Therefore, the location of the generator sites in cortex and the orientation of the dipole may be different for dental than for gingival wave forms. 相似文献

Scalp topography of somatosensory evoked potentials following mechanical (SEPs(M)) and electrical (SEPs(E)) stimulation of the left middle finger was investigated with linked ear reference in 21 normal young adults. A small plastic ball (touch) or needle (pain) was used for the mechanical stimulation. With mechanical stimulation, at least 3 positive and 3 negative potentials (P19(M), N24(M), P29(M), N36(M), P49(M) and N61(M)) were found in the post-rolandic area contralateral to the stimulation. The wave form in SEPs(M) was similar to those in SEPs(E), but the peak latency of each component in SEPs(M) was 1–4 msec longer than that in SEPs(E). Earlier components such as P19(M), N24(M) and P29(M) were not as clearly recognized as corresponding components in SEPs(E). However, the wave form recorded on the hemisphere ipsilateral to the stimulation or in the frontal area contralateral to the stimulation showed a greater difference from subject to subject. P19(M), N24(M) and P29(M) correlated positively both with arm length and height of the subject. There was no significant difference of the wave form between the linked ear reference and the bipolar (C4-Fz) derivation. Wave form of SEPs(M) by needle stimulation did not significantly differ from that by plastic ball stimulation. 相似文献

Intracellular recording techniques were used to study electrical activity in bipolar sensory cells associated with crayfish tactile receptors. Several lines of evidence indicate that spikes evoked by natural stimulation of the receptor originate at a dendritic locus. Although overshooting spikes are recorded in the soma in response to both natural and antidromic stimulation receptor potentials are observed only rarely, and, when present, their amplitude is less than 5 mv. Impulses propagating centrifugally into the soma following antidromic stimulation always exhibit an inflection in the rising phase of the spike; however, orthodromic spikes are usually uninflected. Occasionally, orthodromic responses (in the soma) exhibit rather unusual wave forms. Such spikes evoked by natural stimuli are indistinguishable from those elicited electrically in the dendrite, but they do not resemble antidromic impulses. Because the axonal and dendritic boundaries of the soma have a low safety factor for spike transmission, at high frequencies invasion of the soma by dendritic spikes is impeded and often blocked. The soma region can thus act as a low-pass filter. The significance of this self-limiting mechanism for the behavior of the animal is not known; it is suggested, however, that this impediment is a potentially critical one, and may, in other situations, have encouraged the evolution of alternative arrangements. 相似文献

This study is carried out on single (not averaged) recordings combining the spontaneous activity preceding the stimulus onset and the EP recorded upon acoustical stimulation. These recordings, which we call EEG-EPograms, are measured simultaneously from different subdural structures, such as the auditory cortex, medial geniculate nucleus, inferior colliculus, reticular formation and the hippocampus of the cat brain during the slow wave sleep stage. Using a combined analysis procedure (C.A.P.), the relevant frequency components of spontaneous EEG and EPs, recorded simultaneously from these brain nuclei, are analyzed according to the consistent selectivity bands depicted by the determined amplitude-frequency characteristics for the SWS-stage. In parallel with the results which we obtained for the waking stage, these analyses provide also the following information: (1) there is an important congruency in the time courses of simultaneous response components in common frequency bands, especially in the alpha and beta frequency ranges; (2) there exist significant coupling and synchrony between the evoked amplitude enhancements in the simultaneously recorded single response components; (3) the inter-nuclei coherency in the brain's electrical activity is enormously increased upon stimulation; (4) the evoked response magnitude can be predicted, with reasonable accuracy, from the spontaneous activity preceding the stimulus. All these findings are discussed with reference to those obtained for the waking stage.This study is supported by the Grant TAG-364 of the Scientific and Technical Research Council of Turkey 相似文献
