Tremor and Other Hyperkinetic Movements, 2016 Background: Myoclonus–dystonia is a condition that manifests predominantly as myoclonic jerks with focal dystonia. It is genetically heterogeneous with most mutations in the epsilon sarcoglycan gene (SGCE). In medically refractory cases, deep brain

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches
Epilepsia 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.

Semiologia e classificação das mioclonias.
Acta Médica Portuguesa, 1995 Myoclonus can present itself in various distinct clinical contexts. The authors review the possible different types of myoclonus, as a single manifestation or included in a syndrome, based on a semiological and aetiological classification.

From glycogen metabolism to Lafora disease [PDF]
, 2016 Glycogen synthesis is normally absent in neurons. However, inclusion bodies resembling abnormal glycogen accumulate in several neurological diseases, particularly in progressive myoclonus epilepsy or Lafora disease.

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”.

Genetic epilepsies with myoclonic seizures: Mechanisms and syndromes
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Genetic epilepsy with myoclonic seizures encompasses a heterogeneous spectrum of conditions, ranging from benign and self‐limiting forms to severe, progressive disorders. While their causes are diverse, a significant proportion stems from genetic abnormalities.

Precision therapies for genetic epilepsies in 2025: Promises and pitfalls
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract By targeting the underlying etiology, precision therapies offer an exciting paradigm shift to improve the stagnant outcomes of drug‐resistant epilepsies, including developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. Unlike conventional antiseizure medications (ASMs) which only treat the symptoms (seizures) but have no effect on the underlying ...
