Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Epileptic spasms (ES) in children carry a high risk of neurodevelopmental delay, yet predictors of long‐term surgical outcome remain incompletely defined. This study aimed to evaluate seizure outcomes following epilepsy surgery and to identify independent prognostic factors for postoperative recurrence.

The genetic architecture of epilepsy across molecular mechanisms and clinical heterogeneity
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Epilepsy comprises a highly heterogeneous group of neurological disorders unified by a persistent predisposition to recurrent seizures, yet driven by remarkably diverse genetic, molecular, and network‐level mechanisms. Advances in genomic technologies have revealed that epilepsy arises from a multilayered genetic architecture encompassing rare

Evaluation of Serum Sodium Levels in Simple, Multiple and Recurrent Febrile Convulsions [PDF]
Acta Medica Iranica, 2009 Febrile seizure is the most common form of childhood seizures that occur in 2-5% of them. The purpose of this study was to compare serum sodium level in first simple, multiple and recurrent febrile con-vulsions to answer whether serum sodium levels can ...

Cumulative electroconvulsive therapy sessions and focal epilepsy: A nationwide cohort study in Japan
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is widely used for severe psychiatric disorders, yet concerns remain regarding possible epileptogenic effects associated with prolonged or repeated exposure. We examined the association between cumulative ECT sessions and focal epilepsy in a nationwide Japanese cohort.

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Bilateral hippocampal compromise in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) substantially increases the risk of significant adverse memory outcomes following unilateral anterior temporal lobectomy and may contraindicate surgery. The Spatial Learning Task (SLT) of Lhermitte and Signoret (1972) is a simple object–location arbitrary associative ...

Interleukin Gene Marker for Febrile Seizures
Pediatric Neurology Briefs, 2002 The use of polymorphisms for interleukin IB (IL-1B) exon 5 and interleukin 1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) as markers of susceptibility to febrile seizures was evaluated in Taiwanese children (group 1: 51 with febrile convulsions and group 2: 83 normal ...
