TRIM39-RPP21 Variants (∆19InsCCC) Are Not Associated with Juvenile Idiopathic Epilepsy in Egyptian Arabian Horses. [PDF]

, 2019
Juvenile idiopathic epilepsy (JIE) is an inherited disease characterized by recurrent seizures during the first year of life in Egyptian Arabian horses. Definitive diagnosis requires an electroencephalogram (EEG) performed by a veterinary specialist.

Historical Aspects of Idiopathic Generalized Epilepsies [PDF]

Epilepsia, 2005
Summary:  Early in these proceedings, the origin of the three terms in the title, “idiopathic generalized epilepsy,” is discussed with respect to their significance over time, and typical misunderstandings. In the mid‐20th century, a rather chaotic use of a multitude of often loosely defined terms had developed, which increasingly became an obstacle to

Genetic landscape of patients with atypical absence status epilepticus: A systematic review

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Atypical absence status epilepticus (AASE) is a rare subtype of nonconvulsive status epilepticus (NCSE), characterized by clouding of consciousness and continuous or fluctuating epileptiform activity, generally at a frequency below 3 Hz. Only sparse literature exists on the genetic conditions associated with it.

Lafora disease offers a unique window into neuronal glycogen metabolism [PDF]

, 2018
Lafora disease (LD) is a fatal, autosomal recessive, glycogen-storage disorder that manifests as severe epilepsy. LD results from mutations in the gene encoding either the glycogen phosphatase laforin or the E3 ubiquitin ligase malin. Individuals with LD

Idiopathic generalized epilepsy of late onset

Seizure, 1998
Most idiopathic generalized epilepsies have an onset in childhood or adolescence, with a moderate second incidence peak in the presenium predominantly in women. This study addressed the question of a later onset. The available literature and the records of four personal data sets (two prospective incidence surveys of epileptic seizures, one prevalence ...

Postmortem MRI reveals distinct structural features in sudden unexpected death in epilepsy

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) abnormalities have been reported in individuals who later die from sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP), but their specificity and predictive value remain uncertain. Postmortem MRI (PM‐MRI) offers a unique opportunity to distinguish structural features associated with SUDEP from changes related to ...

Polygenic risk scores as a marker for epilepsy risk across lifetime and after unspecified seizure events

Nature Communications
A diagnosis of epilepsy has significant consequences for an individual but is often challenging in clinical practice. Novel biomarkers are thus greatly needed.

Impact of social factors and health campaigns on the burden of idiopathic epilepsy: an inequality, decomposition, generalized and synthetic difference-in-differences study

Frontiers in Public Health
BackgroundIdiopathic epilepsy is a major global health burden that causes premature death and disability. Previous studies have systematically analyzed trends in the burden of idiopathic epilepsy. However, analyses of the impact of social factors, health

Functional neuroimaging abnormalities in idiopathic generalized epilepsy

NeuroImage: Clinical, 2014
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques have been used to quantitatively assess focal and network abnormalities. Idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE) is characterized by bilateral synchronous spike–wave discharges on electroencephalography (EEG) but
