Patterns of Postictal Abnormalities in Relation to Status Epilepticus in Adults

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Abnormalities on peri‐ictal diffusion‐weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI‐PMAs) are well‐established for patients with status epilepticus (SE), but knowledge on patterns of DWI‐PMAs and their prognostic impact is sparse. Methods This systematic review and individual participant data meta‐analysis included observational studies ...

Timing of Peri‐Ictal MRI Abnormalities in Status Epilepticus – One Size Does Not Fit All

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective We aimed to investigate timing of occurrence of peri‐ictal MRI abnormalities – a potential risk biomarker of status epilepticus‐related cerebral injury (t2). Methods This prospective study enrolled adult patients with status epilepticus and acute magnetic resonance imaging (MRI); patients with peri‐ictal MRI abnormalities underwent follow‐up ...
