Prospective multisite cohort study of patient‐reported outcomes in adults with new‐onset seizures
Objective New‐onset seizures affect up to 10% of people over their lifetime, however, their health economic impact has not been well‐studied. This prospective multicenter study will collect patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) from adults with new ...

LEFT TRANSVERSE VENOUS SINUS THROMBOSIS ASSOCIATED TO PNEUMOCOCCAL MENINGITIS IN CHILDREN – INTUITIVE VS. COGNITIVE DIAGNOSIS [PDF]
Introduction. Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a rare cerebrovascular condition involving multiple etiologies. Diagnosis of CVT is usually overlooked or delayed due to highly varied symptomatology, modes of onset and neuroimaging signs; furthermore ...

Early Onset Seizures Beget Seizures
The long-term effect of early-life seizures on later seizure-induced neuronal damage and behavior was investigated in the laboratory using systemic kainate to induce seizures in rats at the Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA.

An update on the seizures beget seizures theory
AbstractSeizures beget seizures is a longstanding theory that proposed that seizure activity can impact the structural and functional properties of the brain circuits in ways that contribute to epilepsy progression and the future occurrence of seizures. Originally proposed by Gowers, this theory continues to be quoted in the pathophysiology of epilepsy.

Seizure forecasting and cyclic control of seizures [PDF]
AbstractEpilepsy is a unique neurologic condition characterized by recurrent seizures, where causes, underlying biomarkers, triggers, and patterns differ across individuals. The unpredictability of seizures can heighten fear and anxiety in people with epilepsy, making it difficult to take part in day‐to‐day activities.

Genetic epilepsy occurs as a result of mutations in either a single gene or an interplay of different genes. These mutations have been detected in ion channel and non-ion channel genes. A noteworthy class of ion channel genes are the voltage gated sodium

Acute repetitive seizures, also called seizure clusters, are common phenomena in patients with epilepsy. They are a burden on patients and their caregivers and may be very disruptive to the patients' lives. They may progress to prolonged seizures or status epilepticus if they are not aborted as soon as possible.
