The Absence Epilepsies

Epilepsia, 1993
Four syndromes comprise the absence epilepsies. Each is classically associated with the absence seizure, although other syndromes also have absence attacks as part of their repertoire. The most common syndrome is childhood absence epilepsy; it usually occurs in the age range of 6–7 years.

Pharmacology of absence epilepsy

Trends in Pharmacological Sciences, 2003
Abstract Absence epilepsy, a disease predominantly of childhood, has long been known to arise from an aberration of the interplay between two brain regions, the cortex and the thalamus. Pharmacological treatment of the disorder has advanced little during past decades, with ethosuximide and sodium valproate remaining the principle drugs of choice ...

Human absence epilepsies

1992
A historical review of the concept of absence seizures. Their clinical features are very suggestive but a diagnosis made solely on clinical grounds is not always safe. Comparable pitfalls exist in the interpretation of EEG patterns. Absence seizures belong to several epileptic syndromes. They are briefly described.

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.

Childhood epilepsy and school absence

Tropical Doctor, 2008
Epilepsy is one of the most common diseases encountered among school children. Its effect on school attendance and academic performance is a major cause of concern to both parents and clinicians. In this communication, the absence rate and academic performance of 50 school children with epilepsy attending normal schools was compared with that of their

Childhood absence epilepsy.

Zhonghua yi xue za zhi = Chinese medical journal; Free China ed, 1994
Childhood absence epilepsy (CAE) is a relatively rare form of idiopathic generalized epilepsy, occurring in previously normal children with a strong genetic predisposition. The annual incidence of CAE has been estimated at 6.3/100,000 to 8/100,000 children aged 0-15 years.Medical and electroencephalographic records of 50 Chinese children with CAE were ...

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.

[Absence status epilepsy].

Revue neurologique, 2000
Absence status (AS), or "Petit Mal status" is a polymorphic condition that can complicate many epileptic syndromes. Diagnosis is difficult on the basis of clinical semiology alone, and requires emergency EEG. Although heterogeneous, the most typical ictal pattern is constituted by slow generalized rhythmic spike-waves (SW) or polyspike-waves (PSW ...
