Alternations of neuromagnetic activity across neurocognitive core networks among benign childhood epilepsy with centrotemporal spikes: A multi-frequency MEG study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

We aimed to investigate the alternations of neuromagnetic activity across neurocognitive core networks among early untreated children having benign childhood epilepsy with centrotemporal spikes (BECTS).

Methods

We recorded the Magnetoencephalography (MEG) resting-state data from 48 untreated children having BECTS and 24 healthy children. The fourth edition of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC-IV) was utilized to divide the children with BECTS into two groups: the cognitive impairment (CI) group with a full-scale intelligence quotient (FSIQ) of < 90 and the cognitive non-impairment (CNI) group with an FSIQ of > 90. We selected 26 bilateral cognitive-related regions of interest based on the triple network model. The neurocognitive core network spectr
