A natural marmoset model of genetic generalized epilepsy. [PDF]
Epilepsy has been extensively studied as a common neurological disease. Efforts have been made on rodent and other animal models to reveal the pathogenic mechanisms of epilepsy and develop new drugs for treatment.

Genetic generalized epilepsy and generalized onset seizures with focal evolution (GOFE). [PDF]
“Generalized Onset with Focal Evolution” (GOFE) is an underrecognized seizure type defined by an evolution from generalized onset to focal activity during the same ictal event. We aimed to discuss electroclinical aspects of GOFE and to emphasize its link

New onset status epilepticus in influenza associated encephalopathy: The presenting manifestation of genetic generalized epilepsy. [PDF]
We hereby present a case of a young woman with no history of seizures or epilepsy who experienced a de novo generalized Non Convulsive Status Epilepticus (NCSE) followed by encephalopathy lasting for several days during influenza B infection.

Genetic Causes of Generalized Epilepsies [PDF]
Generalized epilepsies, particularly the idiopathic or genetic generalized epilepsies (GGEs), represent some of the most common epilepsies. Clinical genetic data including family studies and twin studies provide compelling evidence for a prominent genetic impact.

Neuropsychological-EEG Activation in Genetic Generalized Epilepsy
Investigators from Lithuanian University of Health Sciences, Kaunas, evaluated the effects of neuropsychological activation (NPA) tasks on epileptiform discharges (ED) in adolescents with idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE) and in comparison with ...

Shared genetic basis between genetic generalized epilepsy and background electroencephalographic oscillations. [PDF]
AbstractObjectiveParoxysmal epileptiform abnormalities on electroencephalography (EEG) are the hallmark of epilepsies, but it is uncertain to what extent epilepsy and background EEG oscillations share neurobiological underpinnings. Here, we aimed to assess the genetic correlation between epilepsy and background EEG oscillations.MethodsConfounding ...

Are Generalized and Localization-Related Epilepsies Genetically Distinct? [PDF]
Whether the genetic influences are distinct for generalized and localization-related epilepsies or whether some susceptibility genes raise the risk for both types of epilepsy is uncertain.To evaluate genetic heterogeneity in epilepsy.We used Cox proportional hazards analysis to compute rate ratios (RRs) for generalized and localization-related ...

EEG in genetic generalized epilepsies
Genetic, or idiopathic, generalized epilepsies (GGEs or IGEs) includes childhood absence epilepsy (CAE), juvenile absence epilepsy (JAE), juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME), and epilepsy with generalized tonic-clonic seizures alone (GTCS-a).Aim.
