Hypnotic drugs, psychomotor performance and ageing [PDF]
Journal of Sleep Research, 1994 SUMMARY This review examines studies, reported since 1976, in which the residual effects of hypnotic drugs on psychomotor performance have been evaluated in older people. The 33 studies involved a total of 934 subjects (aged 60–96 y), evaluated 21 different products, utilized 26 test procedures, and reported 169 drug versus placebo (or drug versus drug)

Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathy due to Biallelic Pathogenic Variants in PIGM
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective PIGM encodes a critical enzyme in the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)‐anchor biosynthesis pathway. While promoter‐region mutations in PIGM have been associated with a relatively mild phenotype characterized by portal vein thrombosis and absence seizures, recent evidence suggests that coding‐region mutations result in a more severe
