Genetic epilepsy with febrile seizures plus – an overview [PDF]
Genetic epilepsy with febrile seizures plus (GEFS+) is characterized by a group of genetic epilepsies associated predominately with an autosomal dominant pattern, but also with de novo and autosomal-recessive inheritance, these last two found in a small ...

Genetics of Idiopathic Generalized Epilepsies [PDF]
Summary: The idiopathic generalized epilepsies (IGEs) are considered to be primarily genetic in origin. They encompass a number of rare mendelian or monogenic epilepsies and more common forms which are familial but manifest as complex, non‐mendelian traits. Recent advances have demonstrated that many monogenic IGEs are ion channelopathies.

The role of thalamic nuclei in genetic generalized epilepsies
There is no doubt on the participation of the thalamus in the various types of genetic generalized epilepsies as evidenced by multiple non-invasive imaging studies in humans as well as invasive studies in animal models of GGE. Based on human and mostly animal data gathered in early 2000 a so called 'three compartment model' on seizure generation was ...

Generalized epilepsies: current conceptions and therapeutic approaches
The concepts of generalized epilepsy have recently undergone considerable changes: the features of focality in generalized epilepsies and the typical features of idiopathic generalized epilepsies in focal epilepsies have been revealed.

Unmasking of myoclonus by lacosamide in generalized epilepsy
Lacosamide is a new-generation antiseizure medication that is approved for use as an adjunctive treatment and monotherapy in focal epilepsy. Its use in generalized epilepsy, however, has not been adequately evaluated in controlled trials.

Automatic epilepsy detection using fractal dimensions segmentation and GP-SVM classification [PDF]
Objective: The most important part of signal processing for classification is feature extraction as a mapping from original input electroencephalographic (EEG) data space to new features space with the biggest class separability value.

The Sodium Channel B4-Subunits are Dysregulated in Temporal Lobe Epilepsy Drug-Resistant Patients [PDF]
Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is the most common type of partial epilepsy referred for surgery due to antiepileptic drug (AED) resistance. A common molecular target for many of these drugs is the voltage-gated sodium channel (VGSC).

DNM1 encephalopathy: A new disease of vesicle fission. [PDF]
ObjectiveTo evaluate the phenotypic spectrum caused by mutations in dynamin 1 (DNM1), encoding the presynaptic protein DNM1, and to investigate possible genotype-phenotype correlations and predicted functional consequences based on structural modeling ...
