Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy mimic associated with CHD2 gene mutation

Epilepsy & Behavior Reports, 2020
This paper reports the electroclinical manifestations of an epilepsy syndrome associated with a chromodomain helicase DNA-binding protein 2 (CHD2) gene mutation with clinical semiology and electroencephalographic (EEG) features consistent with juvenile ...

Syndromic classification of patients with typical absence seizures [PDF]

Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2003
The aim of this study is to compare ILAE classification (1989) and Panayiotopoulos' criteria (1997) for absence epilepsies. We studied 455 typical absences (ILAE, 1981) by video-EEG in 43 patients with normal neurological and neuroradiological ...

Trait impulsivity in Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy [PDF]

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2020
AbstractObjectiveImpulsivity is a multidimensional construct that can predispose to psychopathology. Meta‐analysis demonstrates an association between response impulsivity and Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy (JME), a common genetic generalized epilepsy. Here, we test the hypotheses that trait impulsivity is (i) elevated in JME compared to controls; (ii ...

Headache in juvenile myoclonic epilepsy [PDF]

The Journal of Headache and Pain, 2011
The objective of this study was to assess the prevalence of and risk factors for primary headaches in juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME). Headache was classified in 75 patients with JME using a questionnaire, and its prevalence was correlated with the literature on the general population and clinical data. Headache was present in 47 patients. Thirty-one

Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy. Update

Эпилепсия и пароксизмальные состояния, 2020
Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) is a common disease. However, some aspects of etiology and pathogenesis are not yet fully clarified. This publication describes the development of ideas about JME, the types of seizures that occur in JME, provides a list

CLINICAL AND GENETIC HETEROGENITY OF JUVENILE MYOCLONIC EPILEPSY

Эпилепсия и пароксизмальные состояния, 2016
The idiopathic generalized epilepsies constitute roughly one-third of all epilepsies. Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (Janz syndrome) is characterized by myoclonic jerks on awakening, generalized tonic-clonic seizures, and typical absences, with the latter ...

Heart rate and conductivity disorders in juvenile myoclonic epilepsy: genetic predictors

Эпилепсия и пароксизмальные состояния, 2021
General practitioners, therapists, and cardiologists do not have formal education (training) regarding cerebrocardial syndrome, primarily heart rhythm and conduction disorders in epilepsy and sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP), as well as the ...

Unmasking of myoclonus by lacosamide in generalized epilepsy

Epilepsy and Behavior Case Reports, 2017
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.

Photosensitivity in juvenile myoclonic epilepsy

Seizure, 1998
Photosensitivity is reported to occur in approximately 40% of patients with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy. Our experience suggests that the prevalence is higher and may be related to both the duration of intermittent photic stimulation and also the age at which the procedure is undertaken. A two-year retrospective review of all EEGs was undertaken on all
