Occipital seizures induced by Intermittent Photic Stimulation in Dravet syndrome [PDF]
Dravet syndrome (DS) is a rare disorder with seizure onset in the first year of life, typically beginning with prolonged febrile hemiclonic seizures or generalized tonic-clonic seizures. Photosensitivity is reported in more than 40% of patients. We present two cases of DS in which we had the chance to record occipital seizures induced by Intermittent ...

Familial adult myoclonus epilepsy: A comprehensive diagnostic strategy for clinical practice. [PDF]
Abstract Familial adult myoclonus epilepsy (FAME) is a genetic neurological disorder characterized by cortical myoclonus and epileptic seizures with clinical features that overlap with other movement disorders and epileptic syndromes, particularly essential tremor (ET), progressive myoclonic epilepsy (PME), and juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME).

Seminar in Epileptology: Normal awake and sleep patterns, interictal abnormalities, and ictal patterns on scalp EEG. [PDF]
Abstract The accurate interpretation of scalp EEG remains an instrumental diagnostic component of epilepsy care. Knowledge of what constitutes normal EEG findings, non‐epileptiform abnormalities, and epileptiform patterns—both ictal and interictal—is essential for appropriate patient management.

Functional network dynamics in photosensitive epilepsy depend on stimulation frequency and photoparoxysmal electroencephalographic response. [PDF]
Abstract Objective Photosensitive epilepsy (PSE) is a reflex epilepsy, where abnormal electroencephalographic (EEG) responses are induced by photic stimulation. Photosensitivity is classified into four types based on the propagation of the brain's response to visual stimuli.

Long-term follow-up of an individual with vitamin B6-dependent seizures [PDF]
We report on a 31-year-old female with vitamin B6-dependent seizures whose seizure onset was in the neonatal period. Her elder brother had the same disorder and died in infancy. Administration of vitamin B6 was initiated in the postnatal period.

Frequency of intermittent photic stimulation: Effect on photic afterdischarges, photic driving, and behavioral activity [PDF]
The effects of various frequencies of intermittent photic stimulation (1/7, 1/3.5, 1/1, 3/1, 6/1, 9/1, 15/1, 18/1, 24/1, and 60/1 sec) on photically evoked afterdischarges (PhADs), photic driving (PD), and behavioral activity (gridcrossings) were examined in rats.

Resposta fotoparoxística [PDF]
Sixty-five outpatients with photoparoxysmal response (PPR) during routine EEG were studied. The PPR showed prevalence in women (75.4%). Seizures were found in 66.1% of cases.

Seizures and electroencephalographic findings in inborn errors of metabolism: Clues to differential diagnosis in the neonatal period, infancy, childhood and adolescence, and review of the literature. [PDF]
Abstract Although inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) are a rare cause of epilepsy, seizures are a common presentation in these disorders. Seizures in IEM are frequently refractory to conventional anti‐seizure medication and might warrant initiation of specific treatments based on vitamins or dietary modifications or provision of alternative substrates ...
