Abstract
This review provides a thorough examination of recent developments in neurological and psychiatric disorders and systematic understanding of applications and methodology applied. Our main methods include meta-analysis, search queries with the keywords and network-based approach. Our analysis reveals that terms related to the temporal lobe frequently co-occur with EEG methods and studies involving auditory processing and epilepsy. The prefrontal cortex is commonly investigated using EEG, PET, and DTI, underscoring its role in cognition, consciousness, and neural connectivity. The brainstem shows strong co-occurrence with CT and angiography, particularly in the context of stroke and vascular pathology. The structured and organized presentation of information, along with the accompanying visualizations and diagrams, makes it a valuable resource for scientists and researchers working in the domains of intensive care medicine and rehabilitation.
