Disentangling the Genetic Relationship Between Sleep and Epilepsy
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective A bidirectional relationship between sleep and epilepsy is well recognised, yet the biological mechanisms linking them remain poorly understood. Both have a genetic basis, with genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) capturing polygenic contributions.

Neuroimaging in Focal Epilepsies: An Update
, 2015 Epilepsy is a common neurologic disorder with diverse etiologies. Appropriate MRI investigation has an important role in the assessment of epilepsy. Specific protocols are required for recognition of epileptogenic lesions, particularly for recognition of

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Febrile seizures (FS) are currently classified as simple or complex primarily to describe seizure characteristics, with limited ability to identify the underlying etiology. We evaluated whether molecular diagnosis could complement conventional classification and improve the diagnosis and management of FS.

Study of the electrocerebral activity in partial epilepsies: its role for surgical treatment
, 1982 Partial epilepsies, at least 90 percent of all epileptic syndromes, are the result of a localized abnormal brain hyperexcitability due to organic brain disease.

Pregabalin in the management of partial epilepsy
Neuropsychiatric Disease and Treatment, 2009 Pregabalin is a new antiepileptic medication that works by binding to alpha 2 delta subunit of the voltage-dependent calcium channels present in presynaptic neurons. Its pharmacokinetic advantages include rapid and almost complete absorption, lack of protein binding, linear kinetics, absence of enzyme induction, and absence of interactions with other ...

Migrating partial seizures in infancy and 47XYY syndrome: Cause or coincidence?
Epilepsy and Behavior Case Reports, 2014 Migrating partial seizures in infancy (MPSI) is a rare epilepsy syndrome with poor prognosis. The exact etiology of MPSI is still not known. We report a 14-month-old baby with 47XYY karyotype who presented with developmental delay and drug-refractory ...
