Lower Plasma Neuropeptide Y Level in Patients With Atypical Febrile Convulsions

Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2010
Febrile convulsion (FC) is the most common neurological disease in children. Cases with seizures that persist for more than 15 minutes or recurrent seizures within the same febrile illness are considered to be atypical and may have a different prognosis.

Etiology‐specific spectrum of epilepsy syndromes (ESSES): Widening the concept of etiology‐specific epilepsies—Report from the ILAE 2021–2025 Terminology Commission

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract A new type of epilepsy syndrome, an etiology‐specific epilepsy syndrome, was defined in 2022 in recognition of major advances in identifying the many genetic and acquired etiologies underlying the epilepsies. An etiology‐specific epilepsy syndrome refers to where a known etiology is associated with a distinctive epilepsy presentation ...

Huperzine A provides robust and sustained protection against induced seizures in Scn1a mutant mice

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2016
De novo loss-of-function mutations in the voltage-gated sodium channel (VGSC) SCN1A (encoding Nav1.1) are the main cause of Dravet syndrome (DS), a catastrophic early-life encephalopathy associated with prolonged and recurrent early-life febrile seizures

Theta oscillations, epileptogenesis, and focal seizures in rodent models of mesial temporal lobe epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Theta oscillations (4–12 Hz) are a prominent network rhythm within hippocampal and parahippocampal structures. Driven by cholinergic and γ‐aminobutyric acidergic inputs originating from the medial septum, physiological theta gates network excitability to control spatial navigation, memory encoding, and sensorimotor integration during specific ...

Europe's contribution to the evaluation of the use of systemic antimicrobials in the treatment of periodontitis

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract This narrative review celebrates Europe's contribution to the current knowledge on systemically administered antimicrobials in periodontal treatment. Periodontitis is the most frequent chronic noncommunicable human disease. It is caused by dysbiotic bacterial biofilms and is commonly treated with subgingival instrumentation.

Kv3.1 activation suppresses provoked and spontaneous seizures in a mouse Dravet syndrome model

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective γ‐Aminobutyric acidergic (GABAergic) parvalbumin‐positive (PV+) interneurons are critical for maintaining cortical inhibitory tone, with their dysfunction predictably leading to epilepsy. Rapid PV+ interneuron firing is essential for their normal function and is maintained in part by potassium voltage‐gated channels.

Risk Factors for Seizure Recurrence in Children with Febrile Seizures

Journal of Paediatric Surgeons of Bangladesh
Background: Febrile seizures happen in children between 6 months and 5 years with fever, impacting 2%–5%, and about one-third recur, typically within 1–2 years. They are categorized as either simple or complex. Recurrence is associated with factors like early onset age, family background, reduced fever intensity, and brief fever duration.
