The interictal activities load and cognitive performance of children with typical absence epilepsy

The Egyptian Journal of Neurology, Psychiatry and Neurosurgery, 2021
Background The description of childhood absence epilepsy (CAE) a benign self-limited generalized epilepsy has become a matter of debate. The objectives of this work were to evaluate the existence of psychiatric and cognitive impairments among patients ...

Absence Seizure Detection Algorithm for Portable EEG Devices

Frontiers in Neurology, 2021
Absence seizures are generalized nonmotor epileptic seizures with abrupt onset and termination. Transient impairment of consciousness and spike-slow wave discharges (SWDs) in EEG are their characteristic manifestations.

Topographic distribution of seizure patterns in patients with absence epilepsy [PDF]

, 2010
Background: Absence seizures, which are also known as petit mal seizures, are the most common type of seizures in pediatric epilepsy. They appear in several types of epilepsy and are characterized by impaired consciousness and 3-Hz spike-and-slow-wave ...

Absence epilepsy: Continuum of clinical presentation and epigenetics?

, 2017
Purpose: Although absence seizures do predominate in childhood they may occur at all ages and clinical presentation varies widely. Albeit considered a benign seizure type, chronic evolution with therapeutic refractoriness is possible in some patients ...

Sertraline Treatment Can Mimic Niemann‐Pick Type C Biomarker Profile: A Diagnostic Pitfall

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Oxysterols (cholestane‐3β,5α,6β‐triol and 7‐ketocholesterol) and N‐palmitoyl‐O‐phosphocholineserine (PPCS) are sensitive biomarkers for Niemann‐Pick disease type C (NPC) screening. However, false‐positive results occur, with a biomarker profile suggestive of NPC despite the absence of pathogenic variants in genes involved in NPC or ...

EEG–fMRI of idiopathic and secondarily generalized epilepsies

, 2006
We used simultaneous EEG and functional MRI (EEG–fMRI) to study generalized spike wave activity (GSW) in idiopathic and secondary generalized epilepsy (SGE).

Recurrent prolonged fugue states as the sole manifestation of epileptic seizures

Annals of Indian Academy of Neurology, 2013
A fugue state is defined as an altered state of consciousness with varying degrees of motor activity and amnesia for the event. It may last for hours to days and may be psychogenic or organic in nature.

The Tale of the Residual Tail: Insights From Continuous Intracranial Monitoring From Post‐Hippocampectomy Dynamics

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Subtotal hippocampal resection can leave residual hippocampal tissue, yet the immediate postoperative electrophysiologic evolution of such remnants is unknown. We describe a patient with drug‐resistant temporal lobe epilepsy in whom a hippocampal remnant was continuously monitored using a responsive neurostimulator (RNS) following subtotal ...

Unraveling 4‐Phenylbutyrate's Therapeutic Role in SLC6A1 Disorders: Pharmacochaperoning Over HDAC Inhibition

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Variants in SLC6A1, encoding the GABA transporter 1 (GAT‐1), cause epilepsy, autism spectrum disorder, and developmental delay via loss of GABA uptake, impaired trafficking, and ER retention. We previously found that 4‐Phenylbutyrate (PBA), an FDA‐approved drug, restores GABA uptake and reduces seizures in SLC6A1‐related disorders ...

Risk factors for valproic acid resistance in childhood absence epilepsy

, 2009
AimsValproic acid (VPA) is reported to be effective for the control of absence seizures in 75% of children. The aim of this study was to determine the clinical and socio-demographic factors associated with VPA response in newly diagnosed childhood ...
