EEG slowing is reported in various neurological disorders including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and Epilepsy. Here, we investigate alpha rhythm slowing in individuals with refractory temporal lobe epilepsy compared with healthy controls, using scalp EEG and magnetoencephalography. We retrospectively analysed data from 17 (46) healthy controls and 22 (24) individuals with temporal lobe epilepsy who underwent scalp EEG and magnetoencephalography recordings as part of presurgical evaluation. Resting-state, eyes-closed recordings were source reconstructed using the standardized low-resolution brain electrographic tomography method. We extracted slow 6-9 Hz and fast 10-11 Hz alpha relative band power and calculated the alpha power ratio by dividing slow alpha by fast alpha. This ratio was computed for all brain regions in all individuals. Alpha oscillations were slower in individuals with temporal lobe epilepsy than controls (P < 0.05). This effect was present in both the ipsilateral and contralateral hemispheres and across widespread brain regions. Alpha slowing in temporal lobe epilepsy was found in both EEG and magnetoencephalography recordings. We interpret greater slow alpha as greater deviation from health.
