Psychological stress during wartime and its association with seizure‐related emergency department utilization

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Psychological stress is commonly reported as a seizure precipitant in epilepsy, yet evidence from major crises remains limited and inconsistent. We examined whether the October 2023 Israel–Hamas conflict affected acute seizure‐related healthcare utilization among adults with epilepsy. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study

Psychogenic non-epileptic seizures in the post-anesthesia recovery unit

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Anesthesiology, 2016
Introduction: Psychogenic non-epileptic seizures (PNES or “pseudoseizures”) remain an obscure topic in the peri-operative setting. They are sudden and time-limited motor and cognitive disturbances, which mimic epileptic seizures, but are psychogenically ...

Outcome of Long-Term Video-EEG Monitoring

open access: yesArchives of Epilepsy, 2017
Objectives:Long-term video-electroencephalogram (EEG) monitoring (VEM) is a diagnostic system used for many purposes, including the precise categorization of epileptic seizures, excluding non-epileptic seizures, and finding the seizure onset zone.

Proposal for best practice in the use of video-EEG when psychogenic non-epileptic seizures are a possible diagnosis

open access: yesClinical Neurophysiology Practice, 2017
The gold-standard for the diagnosis of psychogenic non-epileptic seizures (PNES) is capturing an attack with typical semiology and lack of epileptic ictal discharges on video-EEG.

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

open access: yesEpilepsia, 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

Inferences from a community study about non-epileptic events [PDF]

open access: yesArquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2002
OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate the epidemiological importance of the different types of non-epileptic events (NEE) in a low-income urban community. METHOD: The patients suspected of having epilepsy, who were detected in the first phase (screening one) of this

Frequent cannabis use and the association with seizure burden in drug‐resistant epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Cannabis use has increased substantially, with modern products characterized by high tetrahydrocannabinol concentrations and variable composition. The relationship between frequent cannabis use and epilepsy outcomes remains uncertain. We examined the association between frequent cannabis use and epilepsy severity, clinical phenotype,

Spike detection in the wild: Screening of suspected temporal lobe epilepsy cases using a tailored 2‐channel wearable EEG

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To clinically validate the contribution of a custom‐built EEG wearable device (waEEG) compared to a full 10–20 electrode array ambulatory EEG (aEEG) for screening epilepsy cases in patients with suspected temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) but negative routine EEGs. Methods Patients (aged 16–91 years) with clinically suspected TLE who were

Eventos paroxísticos durante la monitorización prolongada con videoelectroencefalografía en epilepsia refractaria

open access: yesNeurología, 2019
Resumen: Introducción: La inexistencia de signos clínicos que diferencien entre crisis epilépticas y episodios paroxísticos no epilépticos hace necesario utilizar métodos diagnósticos específicos, principalmente en pacientes refractarios al tratamiento ...

Real world testing and cost‐effectiveness analysis of subcutaneous EEG (REAL‐ASE): Protocol for a prospective multicentre interventional trial

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy is a common condition associated with significant morbidity, mortality, and costs. Poor documentation of seizures is a major challenge in epilepsy care. Objective seizure counting with mobile devices may mitigate this challenge and improve patient management.
