Association between family history of alcohol use disorder and catamenial epilepsy
Epilepsia, 2022AbstractThe purpose of this investigation was to determine whether a family history of alcohol use disorder (AUD) might be a risk factor and possible clinical biomarker for catamenial epilepsy. The retrospective case–control data came from 119 women, aged 13–48 years, with intractable seizures. We report the relative risk for positive family history of

Impact of a family history of epilepsy on the diagnosis of epilepsy in southern Saudi Arabia [PDF]
Epilepsy can develop at any age for reasons that remain poorly understood. The aim of this study was to determine the impact of a family history of epilepsy (FHE) on the incidence and recurrence of seizures.This retrospective study was conducted in Aseer central hospital, Abha, Saudi Arabia between January and June 2012.

Reduced small world brain connectivity in probands with a family history of epilepsy
Background and purposeThe role of inheritance in ascertaining susceptibility to epilepsy is well established, although the pathogenetic mechanisms are still not very clear. Interviewing for a positive family history is a popular epidemiological tool in the understanding of this susceptibility. Our aim was to visualize and localize network abnormalities

Aim. Previous studies support the concept that obesity is a common comorbid condition in patients with epilepsy (PWE). In this study, we present the body mass index (BMI) and data from a survey to assess physical activity in a sample of PWE from an epilepsy clinic.Methods.

We aimed to ascertain whether family history of major congenital malformations (MCMs) was increased in women with epilepsy (WWE) compared to controls (spouses) and whether family history of MCM was associated with occurrence of MCM in the offspring.Women enrolled in the Kerala Registry of Epilepsy and Pregnancy were probands of this study.

Cryptogenic focal epilepsy (CFE) is a heterogeneous clinical disorder including patients with severe refractory forms and patients with a fairly good prognosis. Predictors of prognosis in CFE are poorly understood. The aim of this retrospective study is to identify long-term (5-year) prognostic predictors in patients with newly diagnosed CFE.Subjects ...

A 9‐year‐old Caucasian boy affected by hot water epilepsy, with positive family history, experienced complex partial seizures during contact with hot water. A video‐EEG recording was taken while hot water was poured onto his chest. Hot water epilepsy is rarely described in European countries, where bathing epilepsy in younger children is more common ...
