Persistence of cortical sensory processing during absence seizures in human and an animal model: evidence from EEG and intracellular recordings.

Persistence of cortical sensory processing during absence seizures in human and an animal model: evidence from EEG and intracellular recordings.

Absence seizures are caused by brief periods of abnormal synchronized oscillations in the thalamocortical loops, resulting in widespread spike-and-wave discharges (SWDs) in the electroencephalogram (EEG). SWDs are concomitant with a complete or partial impairment of consciousness, notably expressed...
