Confirmation of infantile spasms resolution by prolonged outpatient EEGs

Epilepsia Open, 2021
Objective There is no consensus on the type or duration of the posttreatment EEG needed for assessing treatment response for infantile spasms (IS). We assessed whether outpatient electroencephalograms (EEGs) are sufficient to confirm infantile spasms (IS)

Rett Syndrome: Revised diagnostic criteria and nomenclature [PDF]

, 2010
Objective: Rett syndrome (RTT) is a severe neurodevelopmental disease that affects approximately 1 in 10,000 live female births and is often caused by mutations in Methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MECP2). Despite distinct clinical features, the accumulation

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.

High-dose corticotropin (ACTH) versus prednisone for infantile spasms: a prospective, randomized, blinded study. [PDF]

, 1996
ObjectiveTo compare the efficacy of corticotropin (ACTH) (150 U/m2/day) and prednosone (2 mg/kg/day) given for 2 weeks, in suppressing clinical spasms and hypsarrhythmic electroencephalogram (EEG) in infantile spasms (IS).

Unraveling the pathogenesis of ARX polyalanine tract variants using a clinical and molecular interfacing approach [PDF]

, 2015
The Aristaless-related homeobox (ARX) gene is implicated in intellectual disability with the most frequent pathogenic mutations leading to expansions of the first two polyalanine tracts. Here, we describe analysis of the ARX gene outlining the approaches

Sleep magnetoencephalography enhances detection and source imaging of seizures and fast oscillations in focal cortical dysplasia

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) causes drug‐resistant epilepsy requiring presurgical evaluation. Invasive electroencephalographic (EEG) studies demonstrate that sleep modulates epileptic activity, including interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs), fast oscillations (FOs) in the beta (14–40 Hz) and gamma (40–80 Hz) frequency bands ...
