How To Tap Into Infinite Creativity Through Consciousness

In this episode, Dr. Tony Nader drops some serious knowledge about the nature of consciousness and its impact on our daily lives. As a Harvard and MIT-trained neuroscientist, medical doctor, and global leader in Transcendental Meditation, Dr. Nader is uniquely qualified to dive deep into how understanding and connecting with the broader field of consciousness can unlock a limitless supply of creativity, intelligence, and personal fulfillment. Dr. Nader also blows our minds with the potential for collective meditation to create ripple effects throughout society, and how expanding our consciousness can actually enhance our freedom to create the lives we want. Some of the major highlights we cover: The concept of consciousness as a vast ocean with hidden depths of calm and clarity. How regular meditation can lead to inner peace, enhanced creativity, and societal impacts. The science behind meditation and its effects on the brain and society. The interplay of free will, determinism, and consciousness in shaping our lives. And more… Enjoy! FOLLOW DR. TONY NADER: instagram | facebook | twitter | website Listen to the Podcast Subscribe

Machine learning as a diagnostic decision aid for patients with transient loss of consciousness

Background

Transient loss of consciousness (TLOC) is a common reason for presentation to primary/emergency care; over 90% are because of epilepsy, syncope, or psychogenic non-epileptic seizures (PNES). Misdiagnoses are common, and there are currently no validated decision rules to aid diagnosis and management. We seek to explore the utility of machine-learning techniques to develop a short diagnostic instrument by extracting features with optimal discriminatory values from responses to detailed questionnaires about TLOC manifestations and comorbidities (86 questions to patients, 31 to TLOC witnesses).

Methods

Multi-center retrospective self- and witness-report questionnaire study in secondary care settings. Feature selection was performed by an iterative algorithm based on random forest analysis. Data were randomly divided in a 2:1 ratio into training and validation sets (163:86 for all data; 208:92 for analysis excluding witness reports).

Results

Three hundred patients with proven diagnoses (100 each: epilepsy, syncope and PNES) were recruited from epilepsy and syncope services. Two hundred forty-nine completed patient and witness questionnaires: 86 epilepsy (64 female), 84 PNES (61 female), and 79 syncope (59 female). Responses to 36 questions optimally predicted diagnoses. A classifier trained on these features classified 74/86 (86.0% [95% confidence interval 76.9%–92.6%]) of patients correctly in validation (100 [86.7%–100%] syncope, 85.7 [67.3%–96.0%] epilepsy, 75.0 [56.6%–88.5%] PNES). Excluding witness reports, 34 features provided optimal prediction (classifier accuracy of 72/92 [78.3 (68.4%–86.2%)] in validation, 83.8 [68.0%–93.8%] syncope, 81.5 [61.9%–93.7%] epilepsy, 67.9 [47.7%–84.1%] PNES).

Conclusions

A tool based on patient symptoms/comorbidities and witness reports separates well between syncope and other common causes of TLOC. It can help to differentiate epilepsy and PNES. Validated decision rules may improve diagnostic processes and reduce misdiagnosis rates.

Classification of evidence

This study provides Class III evidence that for patients with TLOC, patient and witness questionnaires discriminate between syncope, epilepsy and PNES.
