EEG characteristics of central nervous system graft-versus-host disease
Year: 2025
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: This retrospective study is the first to describe EEG features of central nervous system involvement in graft-versus-host disease (CNS-GvHD). It shows that CNS-GvHD consistently associates with EEG abnormalities at peak disease severity. Epileptiform discharges are rare and mostly occur in chronic CNS-GvHD. Finally, it identifies a statistically significant association between background rhythm frequency and 1-yr survival, suggesting EEG as a potential prognostic tool for CNS-GvHD.
