Abstract

Sleep spindles (SS) and slow waves (SW) serve as indicators of the integrity of thalamocortical connections, which are often compromised in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can modulate brain activity associated with ASD. This study evaluated the effects of TMS on SS and SW in an 11-year-old male with ASD who received 17 sessions of TMS on the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex. Both SS and SW were detected before and after TMS and were analyzed using self-organizing maps (SOM). Using the SOM, a subset of SS and SW was identified that exhibited structural changes after TMS.

应用人工神经网络评价自闭症儿童经颅磁刺激后的睡眠纺锤波和慢波。

睡眠纺锤波（SS）和慢波（SW）作为丘脑皮质连接完整性的指标，这在自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）患者中经常受到损害。经颅磁刺激（TMS）可以调节与ASD相关的脑活动。本研究评估了经颅磁刺激对一名11岁的ASD男性患者的SS和SW的影响，该患者接受了17次经颅磁刺激对背外侧前额皮质的刺激。在经颅磁刺激前后分别检测SS和SW，并采用自组织图（SOM）进行分析。使用SOM，识别出经颅磁刺激后SS和SW的一个子集表现出结构变化。

期刊介绍： Neurocase is a rapid response journal of case studies and innovative group studies in neuropsychology, neuropsychiatry and behavioral neurology that speak to the neural basis of cognition. Four types of manuscript are considered for publication: single case investigations that bear directly on issues of relevance to theoretical issues or brain-behavior relationships; group studies of subjects with brain dysfunction that address issues relevant to the understanding of human cognition; reviews of important topics in the domains of neuropsychology, neuropsychiatry and behavioral neurology; and brief reports (up to 2500 words) that replicate previous reports dealing with issues of considerable significance. Of particular interest are investigations that include precise anatomical localization of lesions or neural activity via imaging or other techniques, as well as studies of patients with neurodegenerative diseases, since these diseases are becoming more common as our population ages. Topic reviews are included in most issues.
