The Role of Excitability and Network Structure in the Emergence of Focal and Generalized Seizures
Frontiers in Neurology, 2020 Epileptic seizures are generally classified as either focal or generalized. It had been traditionally assumed that focal seizures imply localized brain abnormalities, whereas generalized seizures involve widespread brain pathologies.

Termination of seizures by ictal transcranial focal cortex stimulation
Epilepsia Open, 2023 Whereas high‐level evidence exists on chronic neuromodulatory effects of different brain stimulation approaches in reducing seizure frequency, evidence for acute antiseizure effects of electrical brain stimulation during seizures is sparse. As part of an

The seizure classification of focal epilepsy based on the network motif analysis
Brain Research BulletinDue to the complexity of focal epilepsy and its risk for transiting to the generalized epilepsy, the development of reliable classification methods to accurately predict and classify focal and generalized seizures is critical for the clinical management ...

Seizure Cycles in Focal Epilepsy
JAMA Neurology, 2021 Importance Focal epilepsy is characterized by the cyclical recurrence of seizures, but, to our knowledge, the prevalence and patterns of seizure cycles are unknown. Objective To establish the prevalence, strength, and temporal patterns of seizure cycles over timescales of hours to years. Design, Setting, and Participants This retrospective cohort study

Focal seizures during adrenocorticotropic hormone therapy in a school-aged boy: a case report
Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2022 Background Adrenocorticotropic hormone therapy for infantile spasms, including West syndrome, has been previously reported to induce seizures. We present the findings for a school-aged child with epilepsy who developed new focal seizures during ...

Cases with parietal and occipital lobe epilepsies
Acta Epileptologica, 2019 Background For seizures emerging from the posterior cortex it can be a challenge to differentiate if they belong to temporal, parietal or occipital epilepsies. Sensoric auras like visual phenomena may occur in all of these focal epilepsies.

Arousal and Consciousness in Focal Seizures
Epilepsy Currents, 2021 Impaired consciousness during seizures severely affects quality of life for people with epilepsy but the mechanisms are just beginning to be understood. Consciousness is thought to involve large-scale brain networks, so it is puzzling that focal seizures often impair consciousness.
