Movement Disorders in Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathies

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Monogenic developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEE) frequently feature co‐occurring movement disorders. Gene discovery has expanded epilepsy‐dyskinesia syndromes (EDS) from classic associations such as stereotypies in Rett syndrome to PRRT2‐related infantile seizures with paroxysmal dyskinesia and crouched gait in SCN1A ...

Association Between a Body Shape Index and Epilepsy Among US Adults: Potential Indirect Pathway Through Depressive Symptoms

Brain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Epilepsy is a common and disabling brain disorder. Whether a body shape index (ABSI) is associated with epilepsy, and whether depressive symptoms may partly account for this association, remain unclear. Methods We analyzed 13,066 participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2013–2018.

Association mapping of genomic microdeletions and common susceptibility variants predisposing to genetic generalized epilepsies [PDF]

, 2013
Approximately 3% of the general population is affected by epilepsy during lifetime, making epilepsy one of the most common neurological diseases. Genetic generalized epilepsies (GGE) are the most common of genetic epilepsies and account for 20-30% of ...

Clinical utility and genetic landscape of exome sequencing in a large pediatric epilepsy cohort: Insights from a Turkish tertiary care center

Epileptic Disorders, Volume 28, Issue 4, Page 1252-1273, August 2026.
Abstract Objective To evaluate the diagnostic utility and genetic spectrum of next‐generation sequencing (NGS) in a large, well‐phenotyped cohort of Turkish pediatric patients with epilepsy of unknown etiology. Methods Between January 2021 and December 2024, 250 children (115 female, 135 male) with unexplained epilepsy underwent either whole‐exome ...

Distinct domains of impulsivity are impaired in juvenile myoclonic epilepsy but not in temporal lobe epilepsy [PDF]

, 2016
The Barratt Impulsiveness Scale (BIS-11) is the most widely used questionnaire to study impulsivity in persons with psychiatric disorders, but it has rarely been applied to persons with epilepsy.

Thalamocortical Structural and Functional Connectivity in Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy

Pediatric Neurology Briefs, 2013
Researchers at King’s College, Institute of Psychiatry, London and other centers in the UK, US, and Germany discovered changes in an anterior thalamo-cortical bundle during tests of structural connectivity, as measured by diffusion tensor imaging, in a ...

Astrocytes in Genetic Epilepsies: Supporting Actor or Key Player?

Journal of Neuroscience Research, Volume 104, Issue 8, August 2026.
Astrocytes contribute to the pathophysiology of acquired epilepsy. However, less is known about their contribution to genetic epilepsy syndromes which often exhibit frequent comorbidity with neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders. Epileptic seizures are also frequently present in neurodevelopmental disorders.

Lamotrigine induced seizures in juvenile myoclonic epilepsy [PDF]

, 2013
Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) is a common epileptic syndrome. Before the development of the new antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) after the 1990s, Valproate (VPA) was the first-line treatment in juvenile myoclonic epilepsy.

Psychiatric comorbidity in epilepsy: A study comparing patients with mesial temporal sclerosis and juvenile myoclonic epilepsy [PDF]

, 2008
We evaluated the frequency of psychiatric disorders (PDs) in a homogenous series of patients with temporal lobe epilepsy with mesial temporal sclerosis (TLE-MTS), as compared with patients with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME), aiming to determine ...

Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy in an elderly patient [PDF]

, 2006
Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy constitutes 5-10% of idiopathic generalised epileptic syndromes. The clinical triad of absence seizures, myoclonic jerks and generalised tonic clonic seizures (GTCS) rarely begin after the second decade of life. We present the
