Abstract

According to recent findings sterss experiences represent significant condition in pathophysiology of depression and influence abnormal development in the brain. Repeated stress and cognitive conflict also may determine limbic irritability and temporal-limbic epileptic-like activity.

Because recent findings indicate that epilepsy and epileptiform processes are related to increased neural chaos, in the distinct contrast to normal brain activity, the aim of this study is to find relationship between neural chaos in autonomic responses reflecting brain activity during stress activation and limbic irritability.
