Assessment of sleep quality and daytime sleepiness in a group of elderly people

O Mundo da Saúde
The objective of the study was to evaluate the quality of sleep and daytime sleepiness of a group of elderly people, checking whether there is an association with physical activity, presence of chronic disease, and Body Mass Index (BMI) and whether there

A guide to neuromodulation in drug‐resistant epilepsy

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuromodulation is approved for the treatment of drug‐resistant epilepsy. It has been increasingly utilized over the past two decades with the approval of deep brain stimulation (DBS) and responsive neurostimulation (RNS) in addition to vagus nerve stimulation (VNS)—particularly in patients who are not deemed to be good resective surgical ...

Can epilepsy be predicted after the first febrile seizure? Insights from machine learning of postictal EEG

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Febrile seizures (FS) are the most common seizures in childhood, yet identifying children at risk of developing epilepsy after the first FS remains challenging. We aimed to evaluate the prognostic potential of machine learning (ML) algorithms applied to post‐febrile seizure electroencephalography (EEG) recordings.

Seminars in epileptology: Holistic management of epilepsy in adults with intellectual development disorders

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract This seminar addresses the complexity of the management of epilepsy in adults with intellectual development disorders (IDD), advocating holistic and multidisciplinary care aligned with the learning objectives of the International League Against Epilepsy. Epilepsy is significantly more prevalent in people with IDD, presenting unique diagnostic,

Sleep quality and OPRM1 polymorphisms: a cross-sectional study among opioid-naive individuals

Brazilian Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2018
Opioidergic system involves in regulation of sleep and wakefulness. It is possible, therefore, that genetic polymorphisms in OPRM1 influence sleep quality. This study investigated the association of OPRM1 polymorphisms with subjective sleep quality among

Bidirectional sleep‐seizure interactions and orexin in a mouse model of tuberous sclerosis complex‐related epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective A strong bidirectional relationship exists between epilepsy and sleep, with seizures often occurring more frequently in sleep and, in turn, sleep being disrupted by seizures. However, the mechanistic basis of seizure–sleep interactions is poorly understood.

Tissue oxygenation dynamics during transition from seizure to spreading depolarization in rat brain

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Spreading depolarization (SD) is a phenomenon underlying various neurological conditions, including epilepsy. Researchers have suspected that local tissue oxygenation breakdown induces spontaneous SD. In this study, we investigated the relationship between spontaneous epileptic seizures and SD, with a focus on the role of local ...

CaMKIIβ insufficiency disrupts cortical networks, producing aberrant low‐gamma oscillations and seizure susceptibility

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Pathogenic variants in the calcium/calmodulin‐dependent protein kinase II B gene (CAMK2B) have been associated with neurodevelopmental disorders, including epilepsy, yet the mechanisms underlying cortical dysfunction remain largely unclear.

An n‐of‐1 gene‐directed drug repurposing trial for an ultrarare genetic condition

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Gain‐of‐function (GoF) variants in the KCNC1 potassium channel subunit gene (Kv3.1) cause motor/cognitive delays and hypotonia and have been associated with seizures. Fluoxetine has inhibitory effects on Kv3.1. However, open‐label nonrandomized administration is insufficient to guide clinical decision‐making in ultrarare conditions ...

Schizophrenia spectrum disorders and localized abnormalities of the sleep/wake transition. From physiological hypothesis to targeted treatment. Literature review.

Despite their high prevalence and increasing incidence, there have been no major therapeutic advances in the management of schizophrenic spectrum disorders over the last sixty years. The prognosis for these disorders remains extremely poor, despite the personal and family tragedies and societal burden they entail.
