Abstract

The case of a girl carrier of the Rett syndrome is presented. During the first year of life general growth and psychomotor development were normal. Afterwards progressive neurological and mental impairment, loss of ability for the intentional use of hands together with stereotyped movements were seen. At the same time autistic behaviour, progressively abnormal EEG and microcephalia as well as bruxism were evident. Clinical diagnosis was done according to internationally accepted criteria.

A Kalman filter based methodology for EEG spike enhancement.

In this work, we present a methodology for spike enhancement in electroencephalographic (EEG) recordings. Our approach takes advantage of the non-stationarity nature of the EEG signal using a time-varying autoregressive model. The time-varying coefficients of autoregressive model are estimated using the Kalman filter. The results show considerable improvement in signal-to-noise ratio and significant reduction of the number of false positives.

Visual evoked potential in the newborn: does it have predictive value?

We reviewed studies on the predictive value of visual evoked potentials (VEPs) in the newborn. VEPs demonstrated a good correlation with neurodevelopmental outcome in full-term infants with birth asphyxia. However, their prognostic value in preterm infants is controversial. In preterm infants, most studies showed high specificities for neurodevelopmental outcome, but some studies demonstrated lower sensitivities.
