Investigations of mechanisms underlying autonomic cardiovascular regulation in medial temporal lobe epilepsy.

癫痫患者常表现出心血管功能紊乱，这可能增加死亡风险。这可能反映了与癫痫发作相关的心血管系统自主神经回路调节紊乱。我们应用先进的脑成像分析改变的神经结构，电路连接和功能内内侧颞叶和中脑，结合临床评估自主神经功能提供重要的新见解癫痫心脏障碍。

People with epilepsy often show disturbed cardiovascular function which may increase mortality risk. This may reflect seizure related disturbances in the autonomic circuitry regulation of the cardiovascular system. We apply advanced brain imaging analysis of altered neural structure, circuit connectivity and function within medial temporal lobe and mid brain, combined with clinical assessment of autonomic function to provide important new insights into cardiac disturbances in epilepsy.
