It plays a very important role in diagnosis of disorders related to epilepsy and development of new interaction techniques between machines and human beings,namely,brain-computer interface (BCI). The purpose of this review is to illustrate the recent researches in EEG processing and EEG-based BCI. First,we outline several methods in removing artifacts from EEGs,and classical algorithms for fatigue detection are discussed. Then,two BCI paradigms including motor imagery and steady-state motion visual evoked potentials (SSMVEP) produced by oscillating Newton's rings are introduced. Finally,BCI systems including wheelchair controlling and electronic car navigation are elaborated. As a new technique to control equipments,BCI has promising potential in rehabilitation of disorders in central nervous system,such as stroke and spinal cord injury,treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children and development of novel games such as brain-controlled auto racings.展开更多

Methods: We performed meta-analysis by systematically searching PubMed, EMBASE, OVID, ScienceDirect, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang Data, and CQVIP databases to retrieve RCTs in any languages. We used Review Manager to perform meta-analysis. Odds ratios (ORs) or weighted mean differences (WMDs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated in analyses. Results: Twenty-six RCTs with a total of 3,759 participants were included in this meta-analysis. In-hospital mortality showed significant dissimilarity between TGC and CGC groups with OR of 0.76 (95%CI 0.58, 0.99). However, in terms of overall mortality and long-term neurological severity outcome, it didn't show differences with ORs of 0.93 (95%CI 0.79, 1.10) and 1.15 (95%CI 0.96, 1.37). There were also discrepancies in infection rate and ICU length of stay with OR of 0.51 (95%CI 0.42, 0.62) and WMD of -2.37 (95%CI -2.99, -1.74). Significances were observed in hypoglycemia events with ORs of 6.24 (95%CI 4.83, 8.07) and 2.73 (95%CI 2.56, 2.91) using two methods. Conclusion: In critically ill brain injury, TGC did not show beneficial effects on reducing overall mortality and long term neurological outcome, but it increased the risk of hypoglycemia.展开更多

Beyond the ambitious aims of these projects, a fundamental challenge is the need for an efficient, robust, reliable and easy-to-use pipeline to mine such large neuroscience datasets. Here, we introduce a computational pipeline--namely the Connectome Compu- tation System (CCS)-for discovery science of human brain connectomes at the macroscale with multimodal magnetic resonance imaging technologies. The CCS is designed with a three-level hierarchical structure that includes data cleaning and preprocessing, individual connectome mapping andconnectome mining, and knowledge discovery. Several functional modules are embedded into this hierarchy to implement quality control procedures, reliability analysis and connectome visualization. We demonstrate the utility of the CCS based upon a publicly available dataset, the NKI- Rockland Sample, to delineate the normative trajectories of well-known large-scale neural networks across the natural life span (6-85 years of age). The CCS has been made freely available to the public via GitHub (https://github.com/ zuoxinian/CCS) and our laboratory's Web site (http://lfcd. psych.ac.cn/ccs.html) to facilitate progress in discovery science in the field of human brain connectomics.展开更多
