We analyzed the impact of temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) with hippocampal sclerosis (HS) on functional connectivity (FC) between mesiotemporal structures. Functional connectivity modifications related to word retrieval were investigated.
High-density EEG of 21 patients with TLE with HS (12 left TLE and 9 right TLE) and 10 healthy controls (HCs) were recorded during a verbal subsequent memory paradigm. Electroencephalography data were reconstructed into the source space and FC was calculated from the source activity of regions of interest.
A significant decrease in FC between the right- and left-sided mesiotemporal structures in TLE was observed. The decrease was significant only with words that were correctly recognized. The decrease in interhemispheric FC between mesiotemporal structures was found in the 8- to 20-Hz frequency range in both left and right TLE.
The decreased FC between the mesiotemporal structures in TLE is a condition for successful performance of a memory retrieval task. The successful memory retrieval in TLE is related to functional segregation of lesional from nonlesional mesiotemporal structures. This decrease was absent in non-successful responses.
我们分析了伴有海马硬化的颞叶癫痫(TLE)对间脑结构之间功能连接(FC)的影响。研究了与单词检索相关的功能连接变化。
在一项口头后续记忆范式中,对 21 例伴有海马硬化的 TLE 患者(12 例左侧 TLE 和 9 例右侧 TLE)和 10 例健康对照(HCs)进行了高密度 EEG 记录。将脑电图数据重建到源空间,并从感兴趣区域的源活动中计算 FC。
在 TLE 中观察到右侧和左侧间脑结构之间 FC 的显著降低。仅在正确识别的单词中观察到这种降低。在左、右侧 TLE 中,在 8 至 20 Hz 的频率范围内,发现间脑结构之间的半球间 FC 降低。
TLE 中间脑结构之间 FC 的降低是成功完成记忆检索任务的条件。TLE 中的成功记忆检索与损伤和非损伤间脑结构的功能分离有关。在非成功反应中,这种降低并不存在。
