Intellectual functioning in children with epilepsy: Frontal lobe epilepsy, childhood absence epilepsy and benign epilepsy with centro-temporal spikes [PDF]

open access: yesSeizure: the Journal of the British Epilepsy Association, 2013
PurposeThe purpose of our study is to describe intellectual functioning in three common childhood epilepsy syndromes – frontal lobe epilepsy (FLE), childhood absence epilepsy (CAE) and benign epilepsy with centro-temporal spikes (BECTS).

Absence Epilepsies

Epilepsia, 1995
Summary: Individuals fulfilling diagnostic criteria for childhood absence epilepsy (CAE) and juvenile absence epilepsy (JAE) were selected from a large group of patients who were born between 1945 and 1973 and had presented with absence seizures (AS).

Epilepsy with Myoclonic absences

Brain and Development, 2005
Epilepsy with myoclonic absences is characterized clinically by absences accompanied by marked, diffuse, rhythmical myoclonias, often associated with a progressive tonic contraction. The ictal EEG shows bilateral, synchronous and symmetrical spike and wave discharges repeated at 3 Hz (similar to that observed in typical absences of childhood absence ...

Reflex Absence Epilepsy

Epilepsia, 1988
Summary: Epilepsy can be triggered by many unusual mechanisms. Some are exceedingly rare and bizarre, seemingly confined to one patient. This article reports the case of a 20‐year‐old woman who has had absence epilepsy for 11 years that is evoked by thinking or talking about driving an automobile.

Temporal intermittent delta activity: A marker of juvenile absence epilepsy?

open access: yesSeizure: the Journal of the British Epilepsy Association, 2011

Thalamic stimulation in absence epilepsy

Epilepsy Research, 2013
The site specific effects of two different types of electrical stimulation of the thalamus on electroencephalic epileptic activity as generated in the cortico-thalamo-cortical system were investigated in genetic epileptic WAG/Rij rats, a well characterized and validated absence model.First, 12 male rats received low frequency (double-pulse pairs of 2 ...

Longterm Follow-Up of Childhood Epilepsy with Absences - I. Epilepsy with Absences at Onset

Neuropediatrics, 1985
The purpose of the follow-up study was to determine whether modern therapy with ethosuximide and/or valproate with/without phenobarbitone and its derivatives improves the longterm prognosis of absence epilepsy as compared to formerly used treatments. The patient population consisted of 194 cases (88 boys, 106 girls) with spike wave epilepsy starting ...

ABSENCE SEIZURES | Thalamocortical Synchronization and Absence Epilepsy

2009
Generalized spike-and-wave (SW) discharges are often associated with periods of impaired consciousness (i.e., withabsence seizures) and reflect thalamocortical oscillations similar to those involved in sleep spindles, but at a lowerfrequency. Both cortical and thalamic neuronal networks contribute to SWdischarge.

Focality in childhood absence epilepsy

Neurological Research
Childhood absence epilepsy (CAE) has a typical electroencephalography (EEG) pattern of generalized 3 Hz spike and wave discharges (SWD). Focal interictal discharges were also documented in a small number of documents. The aim was to investigate the amplitudes of interictal 3 Hz SWD within the 1st second in drug-naïve CAE patients.

Electroclinical features of absence seizures in childhood absence epilepsy

Neurology, 2006
To accurately define the electroclinical features of absence seizures in children with newly diagnosed, untreated childhood absence epilepsy (CAE).The authors searched an EEG database for absence seizures in normal children with new onset untreated absence epilepsy. Seventy consecutive children were classified into IGE syndromes.
