Objective:To compare the difference of epileptiform discharges detection in patients with epilepsy between the 25 electrodes electroencephalogram (EEG) system proposed by the International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology in 2017 and the previous 19 electrodes EEG system.Methods:Patients suspected of epilepsy or with confirmed epilepsy who need a follow-up EEG were collected in Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University from March 2018 to November 2019, and conventional video-EEG recording was performed on all patients for two hours with the standard 25 electrodes EEG system. Two neurophysiologists reviewed the recordings blindly using the 19 electrodes system and the 25 electrodes system, marking the epileptiform discharges and their amplitudes. Finally, the data were statistically analyzed.Results:A total of 403 patients were included in the study, in which 263 cases were diagnosed as epilepsy, including 129 cases of generalized epilepsy, 115 cases of temporal lobe epilepsy, 13 cases of frontal lobe epilepsy, two cases of parietal lobe epilepsy and four cases of occipital lobe epilepsy. In 115 temporal lobe epilepsy patients, 76 (66.09%) and 100 (86.96%) records were detected epileptiform discharges by the 19 or 25 electrodes EEG system respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=13.939, P<0.001). While in patients with non-temporal lobe epilepsy, there was not statistically significant difference between the two systems. In 76 patients whose temporal epileptiform discharges were detected by the two systems, the amplitudes of epileptiform discharges in the newly-added inferior temporal electrodes (F9/F10, T9/T10, P9/P10) and the original temporal electrodes (F7/F8, T7/T8, P7/P8) were (61.53±22.64) μV and (48.25±20.90) μV, respectively, with statistically significant difference between the two groups ( t=5.486, P<0.001). In patients with abnormal [79.59% (39/49) vs 61.22% (30/49), χ2=3.967, P=0.046] and normal [95.45% (42/44) vs 70.45% (31/44), χ2=9.724, P=0.003] imaging, the ability of the 25 electrodes EEG system to detect epileptiform discharges was higher than that of the 19 electrodes EEG system. Conclusion:The 25 electrodes EEG system can significantly improve the detection ability of temporal epileptiform discharges in patients with epilepsy, which is recommended for regular use to increase the detection ability of temporal area abnormal wave and assist the diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy.

Abstract: Objective To investigate the clinical outcomes and influencing factors of mild therapeutic hypothermia for influenza-associated encephalopathy/encephalitis (IAE) in children with different center temperatures, and to provide ideas and references for new mild therapeutic hypothermia scheme. Methods A total of 115 hospitalized children with IAE who were scheduled to receive mild therapeutic hypothermia in Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Xiamen University from January 2019 to February 2022 were collected as subjects. They were randomly divided into two groups, namely, the 33 ℃ group (n=60) and the 35 ℃ group (n=55). The clinical features and clinical outcomes of the two groups were analyzed. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed for 6-month to investigate the factors affecting neurological disability. Results The baseline indicators after treatment, such as Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score, cerebrospinal fluid total protein (CSF-TP), CSF lactate dehydrogenase (CSF-LDH), lymphocyte (Lym), creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB), LDH, and neuron-specific enolase (NSE), revealed no significant differences between the two groups before treatment or after treatment (P>0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups after treatment in the clinical outcomes including GCS score D-value, time of hospitalization, 6-month neurological disability rate and mRS score, CSF-TP D-value, CSF-LDH D-value, Lym D-value, CK-MB D-value, LDH D-value, NSE D-value, improvement rate of EEG and MRI (P>0.05). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses [OR=1.185, 95%CI (1.026~1.369), P=0.021] indicated that the delay of the onset of mild therapeutic hypothermia treatment was an independent risk factor for neurological disability in children with IAE after mild therapeutic hypothermia treatment of 6 months. Conclusion There was no significant difference in the clinical outcomes between 33 ℃ and 35 ℃ mild therapeutic hypothermia for children with IAE. Therefore, mild therapeutic hypothermia for children with IAE may not require a strict requirement. Timely receipt of mild therapeutic hypothermia is a key measrue to reduce the risk of neurological disability in children with IAE.
