Large fasciculation can clinically manifest as spinal myoclonus; electromyographic and dynamic echomyographic studies of four cases with motor neuron disease

open access: yesClinical Neurophysiology Practice, 2018
Objective: Patients with motor neuron disease rarely present with fasciculation which is large enough to be clinically recognized as myoclonus. This study is aimed at elucidating the features of large fasciculation manifesting as myoclonus by using ...

Oligogenic inheritance in epilepsy: A systematic exome‐wide analysis

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Genetic factors contribute to the majority of epilepsies, but the exact genetic cause remains unknown in most patients. Incomplete penetrance and variable expressivity are frequent, and recent studies showed a burden of deleterious variants in epilepsy genes, suggesting a role for oligogenic inheritance.

Post-hypoxic myoclonus: Differentiating benign and malignant etiologies in diagnosis and prognosis

open access: yesClinical Neurophysiology Practice, 2017
Neurological function following cardiac arrest often determines prognosis. Objective tests, including formal neurological examination and neurophysiological testing, are performed to provide medical providers and decision-makers information to help guide

Negative myoclonus as a manifestation of cefepime neurotoxicity

open access: yesClinical Case Reports
Key Clinical Message Negative myoclonus may present in the early stages of cefepime neurotoxicity. Cefepime neurotoxicity typically presents as reduced consciousness, myoclonus, and seizures; however, negative myoclonus is uncommon.

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.

Myoclonus: Differential diagnosis and current management

open access: yesEpilepsia Open
Myoclonus classically presents as a brief (10–50 ms duration), non‐rhythmic jerk movement. The etiology could vary considerably ranging from self‐limited to chronic or even progressive disorders, the latter falling into encephalopathic pictures that need
