Causal hierarchy within the thalamo-cortical network in spike and wave discharges [PDF]
Background: Generalised spike wave (GSW) discharges are the electroencephalographic (EEG) hallmark of absence seizures, clinically characterised by a transitory interruption of ongoing activities and impaired consciousness, occurring during states of ...

Genome wide high density SNP-based linkage analysis of childhood absence epilepsy identifies a susceptibility locus on chromosome 3p23-p14 [PDF]
Childhood absence epilepsy (CAE) is an idiopathic generalised epilepsy (IGE) characterised by typical absence seizures manifested by transitory loss of awareness with 2.5–4 Hz spike-wave complexes on ictal EEG.

Migreine and periictal headache in patients with epilepsy [PDF]
Migraine and epilepsy are diseases characterized by paroxysmal occurring clinical manifestations that have different mechanisms of pathogenesis. In the interictal period in 59% of patients with epilepsy there are different types of primary headache: 18%,
