Dissecting the genetic basis of comorbid epilepsy phenotypes in neurodevelopmental disorders. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
BACKGROUND:Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) such as autism spectrum disorder, intellectual disability, developmental disability, and epilepsy are characterized by abnormal brain development that may affect cognition, learning, behavior, and motor ...

Severe, Non‐apneic Respiratory Dysfunction and Hypoxia following Generalized Convulsive Seizures

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is a devastating consequence of some generalized convulsive seizures (GCS). Recent work has focused on seizure related apnea as a biomarker of SUDEP risk, frequently without characterizing the adequacy of non‐apneic ventilation or identifying other dysfunctional breathing patterns.

CLINICAL CASE OF PREGNANT PATIENT WITH TEMPORAL EPILEPSY AND MYOCLONIC EPILEPTIC SEIZURES

open access: yesЭпилепсия и пароксизмальные состояния, 2016
Rationale: It is thought that temporal lobe epilepsy tends to show three types of seizures: simple partial seizures, complex partial seizures and secondary generalized motor (tonic ore tonic-clonic) seizures.

Tau Pathology in Alzheimer's Disease Uniquely Affects Sulcal Depths

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Though it is widely known that tau deposition affects brain structure, the precise localization of these effects is poorly understood, especially in relation to gyral and sulcal anatomy. We investigated whether tau pathology in Alzheimer's disease (AD) preferentially affects sulci, and particularly sulcal depths.

Individualized Treatment in Distal and Medium Vessel Occlusion Stroke Using a Validated Explainable Counterfactual Treatment Estimation Model

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective The optimal treatment for distal medium vessel occlusion (DMVO) stroke remains uncertain, and evidence comparing endovascular therapy (EVT) with medical management (MM) is limited. We aimed to develop and validate a predictive modeling tool to assess individual treatment benefit in DMVO stroke using explainable counterfactual treatment ...

Diverse Genetic Etiologies of Unilateral Polymicrogyria

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Polymicrogyria (PMG) is one of the most common human malformations of cortical development and is often classified by its radiographic pattern of distribution. Unilateral polymicrogyria (uPMG) is a subtype of PMG affecting a portion or all of one cerebral hemisphere.

Treatment of refractory complex partial seizures: role of vigabatrin

open access: yesNeuropsychiatric Disease and Treatment, 2009
Elizabeth J Waterhouse, Kimberly N Mims, Soundarya N GowdaDepartment of Neurology, Virginia Commonwealth University School of Medicine, Richmond, VA, USAAbstract: Vigabatrin (VGB) is an antiepileptic drug that was designed to inhibit GABA-transaminase ...

Fibroblast Transcriptomics in Molecular Diagnostics of a Comprehensive Dystonia Cohort

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Genomic sequencing leaves >50% of dystonia‐affected individuals without a diagnosis. Where DNA‐oriented approaches remain insufficient, integrating multiomics is essential to advance genome interpretation. Herein, we incorporated RNA sequencing (RNA‐seq) data from 167 patients with dystonia across a range of ages and presentations. Methods We

Sex‐Specific Genetic Architecture of ALS: Evidence of a Female Protective Effect?

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Background Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) shows sex differences in incidence and age of onset, yet the underlying biological mechanisms remain poorly understood. Methods We investigated sex‐specific genetic architecture in an Italian ALS cohort with whole‐genome sequencing (1,333 ALS cases, 755 controls).

Alternative Translation Initiation in PRKN Delays the Onset of Parkinson's Disease and Offers a Therapeutic Target

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Biallelic variants in PRKN cause autosomal recessive Parkinson's disease (PD) with a median age at onset of 31 years. When evaluating the 16 previously published carriers of a homozygous deletion of Exon 2 from the International Parkinson's Disease and Movement Disorder Society Gene Database (MDSGene) database, the median age at onset is ...
