Role of genetics in the etiopathogenesis of genetic generalized epilepsy: A review of current literature

open access: yesSahel Medical Journal, 2016
Until recently, genetic generalized epilepsy (GGE) was believed to be of presumed genetic etiology with no identifiable genetic mutation or demonstrable epigenetic abnormality. A wide range of epileptic disorders has clue for an inherited susceptibility.

Multi-gene panel testing in Korean patients with common genetic generalized epilepsy syndromes.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Genetic heterogeneity of common genetic generalized epilepsy syndromes is frequently considered. The present study conducted a focused analysis of potential candidate or susceptibility genes for common genetic generalized epilepsy syndromes using multi ...

Problems of diagnosing focal cortical dysplasia

open access: yesЭпилепсия и пароксизмальные состояния, 2021
Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) is one of the most common causes in developing pharmacoresistant epilepsy. We present the clinical case of the patient with generalized seizures.

Heart rate and conductivity disorders in juvenile myoclonic epilepsy: genetic predictors

open access: yesЭпилепсия и пароксизмальные состояния, 2021
General practitioners, therapists, and cardiologists do not have formal education (training) regarding cerebrocardial syndrome, primarily heart rhythm and conduction disorders in epilepsy and sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP), as well as the ...

The association between epilepsy and COVID-19: analysis based on Mendelian randomization and FUMA

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
ObjectiveA multitude of observational studies have underscored a substantial comorbidity between COVID-19 and epilepsy. This study was aimed at establishing a conclusive causal link between these two conditions.MethodsWe employed Mendelian randomization (

Inherited Epilepsies

open access: yesBezmiâlem Science, 2020
Mutations in genes encoding the formation of ion channels may cause epileptic syndromes. These epileptic syndromes are generally divided into generalized and partial epilepsies.

The Relationship of Familial EEG Characteristics with Age and Gender in Primary Generalized Epilepsy

open access: yesBagcilar Medical Bulletin, 2022
Objective:Epilepsy is basically a group of electrical brain dysfunctions, in which many factors play a role in its etiology. Less is known about primary generalized epilepsies than focal epilepsies. Most forms of them are thought to have a genetic basis.

Effects of patient and seizure-related factors on drug load in seizure-free patients with idiopathic generalized epilepsy

open access: yesNeurological Sciences and Neurophysiology, 2021
Introduction: Idiopathic generalized epilepsies (IGEs) include four different epilepsy syndromes and IGE have mostly a good response to antiepileptic drugs (AEDs). The most common IGE subgroup is juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME).

Febrile Seizures in Idiopathic/Genetic Generalized and Self-Limited Focal Epilepsies

open access: yesArchives of Epilepsy, 2021
Objectives:Febrile seizure (FS) is the most common form of childhood seizures. Furthermore, idiopathic/generalized and focal/self-limited epilepsies present at the similar age-range. They usually have a favorable outcome.

Structural network alterations in focal and generalized epilepsy assessed in a worldwide ENIGMA study follow axes of epilepsy risk gene expression

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Epilepsy is a brain network disorder with associated genetic risk factors. Here, the authors show that spatial patterns of transcriptomic vulnerability co-vary with structural brain network alterations in focal and generalized epilepsy.
