Praxis-induced seizures in a patient with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy: MEG-EEG coregistration study

Epilepsy and Behavior Case Reports, 2016
Purpose: Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) is one of the most common generalized idiopathic epilepsies of childhood and adolescence. In some patients with JME, mathematical calculus and praxis may induce myoclonic seizures.

Monthly or menstrual? A scoping review of catamenial epilepsy and non‐menstrual seizure rhythms

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Despite the reported high prevalence of catamenial epilepsy (CE), the condition remains poorly defined, with lack of consensus on what entails a menstrual‐related seizure exacerbation. Emerging evidence of multiday cycles of seizure activity, including about‐monthly cycles, present in both men and women, further confound the ...

Structural Brain Abnormality in JME

Pediatric Neurology Briefs, 1999
An automated and objective technique of statistical parametric mapping was employed in the analysis of structural MRI from 20 patients with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) and 30 control subjects studied at the Institute of Neurology, London, UK.

Myoclonic Jerks and Schizophreniform Syndrome: Case Report and Literature Review

Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2018
Background: Schizophreniform syndromes can be divided into primary idiopathic forms as well as different secondary organic subgroups (e.g., paraepileptic, epileptic, immunological, or degenerative).

Components of generalized onset seizures with focal evolution progressing to bilateral tonic–clonic seizures using quantitative electroencephalography in children: Focal or generalized?

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Absence seizures evolving to bilateral tonic–clonic seizures may have focal or asymmetric clinical features. Using quantitative electroencephalography (EEG) may evaluate this phenomenon and the involved neuronal network. We conducted a retrospective chart review of pediatric patients with generalized epilepsy and normal brain magnetic ...

Correlation of polygenic risk score and clinical phenotype in patients with genetic generalized epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The polygenic risk score (PRS) for individuals with genetic generalized epilepsy (GGE) quantifies the common risk variants in genes identified in genome‐wide association studies. We hypothesized that the phenotype of GGE patients differs based on their GGE PRS. Methods We identified participants with highest (n = 59) versus lowest (n

Epilepsy syndromes classification

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy syndromes are distinct electroclinical entities which have been recently defined by the International League Against Epilepsy Nosology and Definitions Task Force. Each syndrome is associated with “a characteristic cluster of clinical and EEG features, often supported by specific etiologic findings”.

A variant of idiopathic epilepsy: Clinical note

Неврология, нейропсихиатрия, психосоматика, 2015
The paper describes a clinical case of idiopathic generalized epilepsy with a variable phenotype, a similar type of epileptiform activity in the second stage of sleep, and a similar genotype in siblings.
