HCN channels and absence seizures [PDF]
Neurobiology of Disease, 2023 Hyperpolarization-activation cyclic nucleotide-gated (HCN) channels were for the first time implicated in absence seizures (ASs) when an abnormal Ih (the current generated by these channels) was reported in neocortical layer 5 neurons of a mouse model. Genetic studies of large cohorts of children with Childhood Absence Epilepsy (where ASs are the only ...

Electroencephalography in the Diagnosis of Genetic Generalized Epilepsy Syndromes
Frontiers in Neurology, 2017 Genetic generalized epilepsy (GGE) consists of several syndromes diagnosed and classified on the basis of clinical features and electroencephalographic (EEG) abnormalities. The main EEG feature of GGE is bilateral, synchronous, symmetric, and generalized

Tonic–Absence Seizures: An Underrecognized Seizure Type [PDF]
Epilepsia, 2003 Summary: Purpose: The individual electroclinical patterns—tonic seizures with generalized paroxysmal fast activity (GPFA, activity >13 Hz), and absence seizures with generalized slow spike‐and‐wave activity (GSS&W, <3 Hz)—have been extensively described in the literature.

Multimodal detection of typical absence seizures in home environment with wearable electrodes
Frontiers in Signal Processing, 2022 Patients with absence epilepsy fail to report almost 90% of their seizures. The clinical gold standard to assess absence seizures is video-electroencephalography (vEEG) recorded in the hospital, an expensive and obtrusive procedure which requires also ...

The Presence of Consciousness in Absence Seizures [PDF]
Behavioural Neurology, 2011 This paper examines three respects in which the study of epileptic absence seizures promises to inform our understanding of consciousness. Firstly, it has the potential to bear on debates concerning the behavioural and cognitive functions associated with consciousness.

Adrenergic mechanisms of absence status epilepticus
Frontiers in Neurology, 2023 Absence status epilepticus is a prolonged, generalized absence seizure that lasts more than half an hour. The mechanisms underlying the absence of status epilepticus are still not entirely understood.
