International Veterinary Epilepsy Task Force recommendations for systematic sampling and processing of brains from epileptic dogs and cats [PDF]
Traditionally, histological investigations of the epileptic brain are required to identify epileptogenic brain lesions, to evaluate the impact of seizure activity, to search for mechanisms of drug-resistance and to look for comorbidities.

Intralesional recordings and epileptogenic zone in focal polymicrogyria [PDF]
Summary Purpose: Polymicrogyria (PMG) is recognized as an epileptogenic lesion but few data concerning organization of the epileptogenic zone (EZ) are available. Methods: We analyzed the distribution of the EZ according to Stereo‐EEG (SEEG) with intralesional recordings in four patients evaluated for intractable partial ...

Potential of wind turbines to elicit seizures under various meteorological conditions [PDF]
Purpose: To determine the potential risk of epileptic seizures from wind turbine shadow flicker under various meteorologic conditions. Methods: We extend a previous model to include attenuation of sunlight by the atmosphere using the libradtran radiative

The Epileptogenic Zone: Concept and Definition [PDF]
A “concept” refers to what exists in the mind as a representation (as in something comprehended) or as a formulation (as in a plan). It is generally understood as “any idea of what a thing ought to be” (Merriam-Webster). From that premise, an “idea” cannot be compartmentalized or rigidly defined as exclusively belonging to any single individual or ...

EEG–fMRI mapping of asymmetrical delta activity in a patient with refractory epilepsy is concordant with the epileptogenic region determined by intracranial EEG [PDF]
We studied a patient with refractory focal epilepsy using continuous EEG-correlated fMRI. Seizures were characterized by head turning to the left and clonic jerking of the left arm, suggesting a right frontal epileptogenic region.

Cellular antiseizure mechanisms of everolimus in pediatric tuberous sclerosis complex, cortical dysplasia, and non-mTOR-mediated etiologies. [PDF]
The present study was designed to examine the potential cellular antiseizure mechanisms of everolimus, a mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway blocker, in pediatric epilepsy cases. Cortical tissue samples obtained from pediatric patients (n

Epilepsy with Centrotemporal Spikes (ECTS) is the most common form of self-limited focal epilepsy. The pathophysiological mechanisms by which ECTS induces neuropsychological impairment in 15–30% of affected children remain unclear.
