Investigation of networks underlying hyperkinetic seizures utilizing ictal SPECT
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Objective To study neural networks involved in hyperkinetic seizures (HKS) using ictal SPECT. Methods We retrospectively identified 18 patients with HKS evaluated at the Cleveland Clinic between 2005 and 2015 with video-EEG monitoring and ictal SPECT. Semiology was confirmed by the consensus of 2 epileptologists9 independent reviews and classified as type 1, 2, or 3 HKS. SPECT data were analyzed by 2 independent physicians using a z score of 1.5. Ictal hyperperfusion patterns for each group were analyzed visually and with SPM. Spatial normalization to Montreal Neurological Institute space for each patient’s data was performed, followed by flipping of data from patients with left-sided ictal onset to the right side. Finally, an average z score map for each group was calculated. Results Visual analysis and SPM identified different patterns of ictal hyperperfusion in the 3 subtypes of HKS. Type 1 seizures showed hyperperfusion in a more anteriorly located network involving the anterior insula, orbitofrontal cortex, cingulate, and anterior perisylvian region and rostral midbrain. Type 2 seizures were associated with hyperperfusion in a more caudally located network involving the orbitofrontal cortex, cingulate (middle and posterior), basal ganglia, thalami, and cerebellum. Type 3 seizures showed a mixed pattern of SPECT hyperperfusion involving the temporal pole and anterior perisylvian region. Conclusions Each of the 3 different semiologic subtypes of HKS is associated with distinct patterns of hyperperfusion, providing further insight into the neural networks involved. This knowledge may inform placement of invasive EEG electrodes in patients with HKS semiology undergoing presurgical evaluation.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
