Respiratory modulations of cortical excitability and interictal spike timing in focal epilepsy: a case report

Abstract Background Brain activity in focal epilepsy is marked by a pronounced excitation-inhibition (E:I) imbalance and interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) observed in periods between recurrent seizures. As a marker of E:I balance, aperiodic neural activity and its underlying 1/f characterist...
