Semiological features of epilepsy seizures and paroxysmal non‐epileptic events in children: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Pediatric paroxysmal non‐epileptic events (PNEs) are frequently misdiagnosed as epilepsy. We systematically reviewed and synthesized 40 studies, including 3123 video‐EEG monitored pediatric patients. Epileptic seizures in infants (1 month–3 years) typically presented as arrest, while in children and adolescents (1 month–21 years) they manifested as ...

Case Report: Atonic PNES Capture in fMRI

Frontiers in Neurology, 2022
Psychogenic Non-Epileptic Seizures (PNES) are a misunderstood and disabling pathology, characterized by a paroxysmal occurrence of clinical signs without the epileptic activity. Resting-state functional MRI (fMRI) studies in patients with PNES have shown

Prognostic Implications of Sleep Architecture for Patients Admitted to the Intensive Care Unit With Status Epilepticus

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 13, Issue 6, Page 1179-1185, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Status epilepticus (SE) is associated with significant mortality. Sleep architecture may reflect normal brain function. Impaired sleep architecture is associated with poorer outcomes in numerous conditions. Here we investigate the association of sleep architecture in continuous EEG (cEEG) with survival in SE.

Psychogenic Seizure Imitating Narcolepsy

Case Reports in Neurology, 2020
Psychogenic or functional neurological disorders (FND) often occur in the practice of a neurologist. Diagnosis of FND usually causes significant difficulties. Among FND, psychogenic non-epileptic seizures (PNES) comprise around 40% cases. Sometimes it is

Retrospective Analysis of Patients Undergoing Video-EEG Monitoring

Archives of Epilepsy, 2023
Objective:Video-electroencephalography (EEG) monitoring (VEM) is an essential tool in diagnosing and treating epilepsy as it enables real-time monitoring and recording of electrical activity in the brain.

Perceptions and Emotions Toward Diets and Supplements Among Reddit Users With Functional/Dissociative Seizures and Their Caregivers: A Mixed‐Methods Analysis of r/PNESsupport

Brain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Users with functional/dissociative seizures (UwFDS) identify hypoglycemia and specific diets as key modifiers of their symptoms. These patient‐driven insights, highlighting a gap in clinical care, underscore the need for integrated nutritional strategies and evidence‐based dietary protocols within psychologically informed FDS management.

Functionality of symptoms and interpersonal communication in home video recordings of functional/dissociative versus epileptic seizures

Epilepsia, Volume 67, Issue 5, Page 2241-2253, May 2026.
Abstract Objective Conceptualizing functional/dissociative seizures (FDS) as resulting from dissociation, or conversion, we hypothesized that, compared to epileptic seizures (ES), FDS should carry more symbolic or communicative content and that this would allow observers to distinguish FDS from ES.

Identification of Serum Biomarkers for Differentiating Epileptic Seizures from Psychogenic Attacks Using a Proteomic Approach; a Comparative study

Archives of Academic Emergency Medicine, 2020
Introduction: Differentiating actual epileptic seizures (ESs) from psychogenic non-epileptic seizures (PNES) is of great interest. This study compares the serum proteomics of patients diagnosed with ESs and PNES.

Breaking the Seizure Code: Challenges in Identifying and Managing Functional and Dissociative Seizures

Progress in Neurology and Psychiatry, Volume 30, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Functional and dissociative seizures (FDS), formerly known as psychogenic non‐epileptic seizures (PNES), closely mimic epileptic seizures but are not caused by abnormal epileptiform activity in the cerebral cortex. This resemblance poses significant challenges for accurate diagnosis and effective management.

MRI findings in patients with psychogenic non‐epileptic seizures: Prevalence, distribution, and classification of the findings. A single tertiary epilepsy center experience

Epilepsia Open
Objective Psychogenic non‐epileptic seizures (PNES) mimic epileptic seizures without electroencephalographic correlation. Although classified as psychiatric disorders, their neurobiological or structural basis remains unclear.
