Abstract
Cortical thickening and thinning occur in patients with generalized tonic-clonic seizures, in cardiovascular and somatosensory areas, with extent of changes sex- and hemisphere-dependent. The data show injury in key autonomic and respiratory cortical areas, which may contribute to dysfunctional cardiorespiratory patterns during seizures, as well as to longer-term SUDEP risk.
