    Abstract: The cortical representation of emotions is complex, and cortical mapping of emotional experience is incomplete. We aimed to contribute to cortical mapping of emotional experience. Methods Clinical data from 400 patients with medically refractory epilepsy who underwent stereo‐electroencephalography implantation for localization of the epileptogenic zone at the Beijing Institute of Functional Neurosurgery between October 2015 and June 2021 were collected retrospectively. Furthermore, we reviewed studies that described cortical mapping of emotional experience through electrical cortical stimulation (ECS). Affective responses similar to ictal aura and electrode contacts located in the SOZ were excluded to investigate emotional experiences in normal brain regions. Results Emotional experiences were evoked by stimulation at 10 electrode contacts in the seven patients, including five contacts that evoked mirth and excitement, one contact that evoked calmness, three contacts that evoked fear, and one contact that evoked sadness. In addition, 21 studies that evaluated emotional experiences in response to cortical electrical stimulation were reviewed. Emotions were distributed in the amygdala, hippocampus, temporal lobe, frontal lobe, insula, frontal operculum, parietal operculum, and cingulate cortex. Significance We provided additional evidence that brain regions including the amygdala, hippocampus, temporal lobe, frontal lobe, insula, frontal operculum, parietal operculum, and cingulate cortex were associated with emotional experience.

    Abstract: Our understanding of cingulate cortex function is limited. As a method for locating the epileptogenic zone, direct electrical cortical stimulation (ECS) provides an opportunity to understand the functional localization of the cingulate cortex. This study aimed to learn more about the function of the cingulate cortex by analyzing a large body of data from our center and by reviewing existing literature on cortical mapping. We retrospectively analyzed the ECS data of 124 patients with drug‐resistant epilepsy who had undergone electrode implantation in the cingulate cortex. The standard stimulation parameters included a biphasic pulse and bipolar stimulation at 50 Hz. Furthermore, we reviewed existing studies on cingulate responses elicited by the ECS and compared them with our results. A total of 329 responses were evoked in 276 contacts using ECS. Of these, 196 were physiological functional responses, which included sensory, affective, autonomic, language, visual, vestibular, and motor responses, along with a few other sensations. Sensory, motor, vestibular, and visual responses were concentrated in the cingulate sulcus visual area (CSv). Furthermore, 133 epilepsy‐related responses were evoked, most of which were concentrated in the ventral cingulate cortex. No responses were evoked by 498 contacts. Furthermore, the comparison of our ECS results with those reported in 11 comprehensive reviews revealed that the cingulate cortex is involved in complicated functions. The cingulate cortex is involved in sensory, affective, autonomic, language, visual, vestibular, and motor functions. The CSv is an integrating node of sensory, motor, vestibular, and visual systems.

    Abstract: Objective . Limb loss experience is a type of body illusion characterized by the sensation of a missing limb or body part. We aimed to investigate the brain areas involved in this unusual somatosensory experience evoked by electric cortical stimulation with stereo‐electroencephalography electrodes. Methods . We retrospectively reviewed the data of patients with medical intractable epilepsy, from October 2015 to December 2020, who underwent stereo‐electroencephalography implantation and electric cortical stimulation in order to locate the epileptogenic zone and obtain a functional map. We included patients who reported experiences of limb loss during the process of electric cortical stimulation for functional mapping. Results . Three patients reported experiences of limb loss in the process of electric cortical stimulation. Limb loss experience (including the right hand, right upper limb and right side of the body) occurred when the cortex of the left posterior insula, posterior dorsal cingulate and parietal operculum were stimulated. Significance . Limb loss experience can be evoked by electric cortical stimulation of the posterior insula, parietal operculum, and posterior cingulate cortex, and provides additional evidence that these cortices play a role in the integration of body sensory perception.

    Abstract: Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is an effective treatment for patients with refractory epilepsy, yet with varied predictive factors and heterogeneous long-term outcomes. Adjustment of VNS parameters is critical for obtaining favorable efficacy. In this study, we aimed to investigate the long-term outcomes and the possible predictive factors of VNS in patients with refractory epilepsy. Methods Eighty-six patients (59 males and 27 females) who underwent VNS implantation for treatment of refractory epilepsy between May 2016 and May 2017 at five Epilepsy Centers were enrolled. The clinical data, including sex, age at epilepsy onset, VNS implantation, epilepsy duration, seizure type, MRI findings, history of neurosurgical operations, and responder rate (responders were those with ≥50% seizure reduction), were analyzed. Results Four-year follow-up data were available for 76 patients (53 males and 23 females). The mean current intensity at the last follow-up was 1.8 ± 0.3 mA (range: 0.75–2.5 mA). The mean seizure reduction was 36.2% at 6 months, 38.5% at 1 year, 69.4% at 3 years, and 56.7% at 4 years. A favorable outcome of ≥50% reduction in seizure frequency occurred in 40.0% of the patients at 6 months, 55.9% at 1 year with 4 patients being seizure-free, 63.2% at 3 years with 5 patients being seizure-free, and 68.4% at 4 years with 5 patients being seizure-free. Earlier onset age ( P 〈  0.001) and shorter duration ( P = 0.042) were associated with favorable prognosis. Compared with generalized tonic-clonic seizures, tonic seizures had a favorable outcome ( P = 0.026). Twenty-three patients underwent neurosurgical operations before VNS implantation, and the responder rate was 60.9% at the last follow-up. Conclusions VNS is an adjunctive and effective treatment for patients with refractory epilepsy who are not good candidates for surgical resection or have failed to respond to surgical treatment. The stimulation efficacy increases over time after implantation, and earlier exposure to VNS improves the prognosis.

    Abstract: We aimed to explore the value of magnetoencephalography in the presurgical evaluation of patients with posterior cortex epilepsy. Methods A total of 39 patients with posterior cortex epilepsy (PCE) and intact magnetoencephalography (MEG) images were reviewed from August 2019 to July 2022. MEG dipole clusters were classified into single clusters, multiple clusters, and scatter dipoles based on tightness criteria. The association of the surgical outcome with MEG dipole classifications was evaluated using Fisher's exact tests. Results Among the 39 cases, there were 24 cases of single clusters (61.5%), nine cases of multiple clusters (23.1%), and six cases of scattered dipoles (15.4%). Patients with single dipole clusters were more likely to become seizure‐free. Among single dipole cluster cases ( n = 24), complete MEG dipole resection yielded a more favorable surgical outcome than incomplete resection (83.3% vs. 16.7%, p = 0.007). Patients with concordant MRI and MEG findings achieved a significantly more favorable surgical outcome than discordant patients (66.7% vs. 33.3%, p = 0.044), especially in single dipole cluster patients (87.5% vs. 25.0%, p = 0.005). Significance MEG can provide additional valuable information regarding surgical candidate selection, epileptogenic zone localization, electrode implantation schedule, and final surgical planning in patients with posterior cortex epilepsy.
