Retrieval impairment in generalized tonic-clonic epilepsy and complex partial epilepsy

Medical Journal of Indonesia, 1996
Many epileptic patients complain of poor memory, especially those with complex partial seizures. Memory in epilepsy is reportedly influenced by several factors like seizure type, seizure frequency, age at onset of epilepsy, anti-epileptic medication, etc. However, the available data are somewhat confusing and do not provide any clear answers.

Prevention of generalized tonic–clonic seizures in refractory focal epilepsy: A meta‐analysis [PDF]

Epilepsia, 2014
SummaryObjectivesSecondary generalized tonic–clonic seizures (SGTCS) are among the most severe forms of seizures, and the main risk factor for sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP). Whether some antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) might be more efficacious than others on SGTCS in patients with drug‐resistant focal epilepsy thus represents an important ...

Chromosomal Mapping of Genes for Epilepsy in NER: A Rat Strain with Tonic‐Clonic Seizures [PDF]

Epilepsia, 2000
Summary: Purpose: NER is a mutant rat strain that exhibits spontaneous tonic‐clonic convulsions accompanied by epileptic discharges on ictal EEG and serves as a model for generalized tonic‐clonic seizures in humans. Our previous experiments have suggested that a major autosomal recessive gene and several minor genes regulate the inheritance of tonic ...

Multidimensional Profiling of MRI‐Negative Temporal Lobe Epilepsy Uncovers Distinct Phenotypes

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Although hippocampal sclerosis (TLE‐HS) represents the most frequent cause of temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), up to 30% of patients show no lesion on visual MRI inspection (TLE‐MRIneg). These cases pose diagnostic and therapeutic challenges and are underrepresented in surgical series.

SPG4 and Dementia: Expanding the Clinical Spectrum

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) is a group of disorders characterized by progressive spasticity and lower limb weakness, with mutations in SPG4/SPAST being the most common cause. Detailed studies and clinical and molecular comparisons across different populations are missing.

Screening Routine Clinical Notes for Epilepsy Surgery Candidates Using Large Language Models

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Epilepsy surgery is severely underutilized despite proven efficacy, with substantial under‐referral of eligible patients in routine clinical practice. This study evaluated the potential role of large language models (LLMs) as decision‐support tools for screening unstructured clinical notes to identify epilepsy surgery candidates and ...
