EEG automatic processing method.
This is a description of researches carried out in man and experimentally in rats. The results - obtained in 44 children aged between 12 and 14 yr. - of the electric signal processed as a F/A ratio were compared to the transport mechanisms of the blood sodium. We found that the normal brain excitability level was consistent only with the blood sodium transport through interaction with the proteins. The lack of such interaction was accompanied by an increased excitability on eeg recordings and by behaviour disturbances. The researches carried out in rats had in view the brain excitability level in two groups of animals aged 6-8 months, which drank from their birth either physiological salt (group 1) or distilled water (group 2). In this species, in spite of direct visible modifications in eeg recordings by sensorial stimulation, the processing as F/A ratio did not show any differences, and this made necessary the use of computers to process rightly the data; the respective digitization and memorising methods are described, too.
