Clinical risk factors of febrile seizure in children in a university hospital in Bushehr port
Iranian South Medical Journal, 2007 Background: Although the majority of febrile seizures are benign, it is clinically important to understand the underlying mechanism. In this study, we investigated characteristics of febrile convulsion and factors related to its recurrence and its ...

Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Objective The polygenic risk score (PRS) for individuals with genetic generalized epilepsy (GGE) quantifies the common risk variants in genes identified in genome‐wide association studies. We hypothesized that the phenotype of GGE patients differs based on their GGE PRS. Methods We identified participants with highest (n = 59) versus lowest (n

Climate‐related exposures and seizures in children: A systematic review
Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Climate‐related exposures, including air pollution, temperature extremes, humidity, and atmospheric conditions, are increasingly recognized as potential seizure triggers. As climate change intensifies, understanding the environmental contributors to pediatric seizure risk has important implications for anticipatory guidance and ...

Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract The classification of the epilepsies has traditionally relied on clinical and electroencephalographic features. However, advancements in molecular genetics, neuroimaging, and our understanding of epilepsy pathophysiology necessitate a shift toward an etiology‐based approach.

Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Objective In temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), patients often present with neurobehavioral comorbidities encompassing affective and cognitive difficulties. Whereas the latter have been related to atypical connectivity of mesiotemporal and frontotemporal circuits, the brain basis of affective symptoms remains incompletely understood.

Scn1a‐mediated developmental regulation of prefrontal cortex plasticity and cognition
Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Objective The voltage‐gated sodium channel Nav1.1, encoded by Scn1a, is essential for γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA)ergic function, and its alteration is associated with neurological disorders such as Dravet syndrome and Alzheimer's disease. We previously demonstrated that local Nav1.1 dysfunction in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) during ...

Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Levetiracetam (LEV) is an antiseizure medication approved for focal and generalized epilepsy. Despite its efficacy, neuropsychiatric adverse effects (NP‐AEs) may lead to treatment discontinuation. Quantitative electroencephalographic (qEEG) graph‐theoretical analysis has emerged as a valuable tool for identifying neurophysiological ...
