Development and Retrospective Application of Novel Outcome Measure: Sturge–Weber Syndrome Acute Crisis (SWAC) Index

Annals of the Child Neurology Society, EarlyView.

Ictal semiology in lateral temporal epilepsy: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective We performed a systematic review of the ictal semiology of the lateral temporal lobe in focal epilepsy aiming to summarize the state‐of‐the‐art anatomo‐clinical correlations in the field and help guide interpretation of ictal semiology within the framework of pre‐surgical evaluation.

Nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy

Schweizer Archiv für Neurologie und Psychiatrie, 2003
The paroxysmal motor events during sleep are certainly common.The systematic use of nocturnal video-polysomnography has largely improved the diagnostic yield in patients with clusters of nocturnal motor events. Two broad nosological categories have been identified: parasomnias (sleep terror and sleep-walking), which are thought to represent disorders ...
