Dataset Information

Dataset of quantitative spectral EEG of different stages of kindling acquisition in rats.

ABSTRACT: The data represented here are in relation with the manuscript "Quantitative assessments of extracellular EEG to classify specific features of main phases of seizure acquisition based on kindling model in Rat" (Jalilifar et al., 2017) [1] which quantitatively classified different main stages of the kindling process based on their electrophysiological characteristics using EEG signal processing. The data in the graphical form reported the contribution of different sub bands of EEG in different stages of kindling- induced epileptogenesis. Only EEG signals related to stages 1-2 (initial seizure stages (ISSs)), 3 (localized seizure stage (LSS)), and 4-5 (generalized seizure stages (GSSs) were transferred into frequency function by Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) and their power spectrum and power of each sub bands including delta (1-4 Hz), Theta (4-8 Hz), alpha (8-12 Hz), beta (12-28 Hz), gamma (28-40 Hz) were calculated with MATLAB 2013b. Accordingly, all results were obtained quantitatively which can contribute to reduce the errors in the behavioral assessments.

Project description:ObjectiveThis study compares the complementary information from semi-quantitative EEG (sqEEG) and spectral quantitative EEG (spectral-qEEG) to detect the life-long effects of early childhood malnutrition on the brain.MethodsResting-state EEGs (N = 202) from the Barbados Nutrition Study (BNS) were used to examine the effects of protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) on childhood and middle adulthood outcomes. sqEEG analysis was performed on Grand Total EEG (GTE) protocol, and a single latent variable, the semi-quantitative Neurophysiological State (sqNPS) was extracted. A univariate linear mixed-effects (LME) model tested the dependence of sqNPS and nutritional group. sqEEG was compared with scores on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). Stable sparse classifiers (SSC) also measured the predictive power of sqEEG, spectral-qEEG, and a combination of both. Multivariate LME was applied to assess each EEG modality separately and combined under longitudinal settings.ResultsThe univariate LME showed highly significant differences between previously malnourished and control groups (p < 0.001); age (p = 0.01) was also significant, with no interaction between group and age detected. Childhood sqNPS (p = 0.02) and adulthood sqNPS (p = 0.003) predicted MoCA scores in adulthood. The SSC demonstrated that spectral-qEEG combined with sqEEG had the highest predictive power (mean AUC 0.92 ± 0.005). Finally, multivariate LME showed that the combined spectral-qEEG+sqEEG models had the highest log-likelihood (-479.7).ConclusionThis research has extended our prior work with spectral-qEEG and the long-term impact of early childhood malnutrition on the brain. Our findings showed that sqNPS was significantly linked to accelerated cognitive aging at 45-51 years of age. While sqNPS and spectral-qEEG produced comparable results, our study indicated that combining sqNPS and spectral-qEEG yielded better performance than either method alone, suggesting that a multimodal approach could be advantageous for future investigations.SignificanceBased on our findings, a semi-quantitative approach utilizing GTE could be a valuable diagnostic tool for detecting the lasting impacts of childhood malnutrition. Notably, sqEEG has not been previously explored or reported as a biomarker for assessing the longitudinal effects of malnutrition. Furthermore, our observations suggest that sqEEG offers unique features and information not captured by spectral quantitative EEG analysis and could lead to its improvement.
