简要总结
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the microexpressions in patients with prolonged disorders of consciousness. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Inducing micro-expression changes in patients with prolonged disorders of consciousness through various emotional stimuli, and further to achieve precise classification of their levels of consciousness.
- Detecting micro-expressions in patients with prolonged disorders of consciousness to assist clinical diagnosis of levels of consciousness, e.g., complement the disgnosis of clinical scales such as CRS-r scale.
- By monitoring micro-expression changes in patients with prolonged disorders of consciousness, researchers can explore their residual brain function, thereby advancing research into relevant neural mechanisms.
Participants will be subjected to consciousness assessment by CRS-r scale, and their micro-expression changes in response to various emotional stimuli will be captured, along with the collection of EEG and MRI data. Follow-up evaluations will be conducted using the CRS-R scale and GOS scale, with a follow-up period of 6 months.
详细描述
In accordance with the inclusion and exclusion criteria, a total of about 200 participants will be recruited, including about 150 confirmed cases of prolonged disorders of consciousness and 50 healthy control subjects (HCs). Utilizing the random split algorithm from the machine learning library sklearn, the dataset will be randomly divided into a training set (70%) and a testing set (30%). General information about the participants such as age, gender, time and location of injury, as well as medical history, family history, medication history, and surgical history will be collected.
Participants will undergo dual-person, multiple assessments using the CRS-R scale to evaluate auditory, visual, motor, speech responsiveness, communication, and arousal levels. Micro-expression changes in response to various emotional stimuli will be collected, along with EEG and MRI data.
Follow-up evaluations will be conducted on all enrolled patients using the CRS-R scale and the GOS scale, with a follow-up period of 6 months.

结局指标
主要结局
CRS-r score
时间窗: six month
CRS-R a standardized neurobehavioral assessment measure designed for use in patients with disorders of consciousness. The scale is intended to be used to establish diagnosis, monitor behavioral recovery, predict outcome, and assess treatment effectiveness. The CRS-R consists of 6 subscales designed to assess auditory function, receptive and expressive language, visuoperception, communication ability, motor functions, and arousal level.
GOSE score
时间窗: six month
GOS-E is an extended version of the Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS), which was developed to provide a more detailed assessment of patient functionality and quality of life after experiencing such an injury. It has eight categories: Dead, Vegetative State, Lower Severe Disability, Upper Severe Disability, Lower Moderate Disability, Upper Moderate Disability, Lower Good Recovery, and Upper Good Recovery
