Factors determining recurrence in transient global amnesia

BMC Neurology, 2020
Background Aetiology of transient global amnesia (TGA) remains uncertain, though many have been proposed, including ischaemic, migrainous or epileptic pathologies. Methods We attempted to determine risk factors for TGA, as well as prognostic factors that

Contribution of Addictovigilance data to assess adverse‐events linked to psychoactive substances in children and adolescents

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims We sought to characterize adverse events and deaths associated with the use of psychoactive substances in children and adolescents. Methods Two French Addictovigilance databases were analysed: spontaneous reports and deaths over the period 2016–2021, in subjects aged 10–<18 years. An unsupervised classification was implemented on consumption data (

Diagnostic Challenges in the Neuropsychology of Epilepsy: Report of the ILAE Neuropsychology Task Force Diagnostic Methods Commission: 2021–2025

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Increasingly, it has been recognized that non‐seizure‐related factors influence how people with epilepsy perform on neuropsychological tests. Therefore, neuropsychologists need to recognize the constellation of factors that can contribute to the neurocognitive presentation of a person with epilepsy and consider these factors in the ...

Impaired picture recognition in transient epileptic amnesia

Epilepsy & Behavior, 2015
Transient epileptic amnesia (TEA) is an epileptic syndrome characterized by recurrent, brief episodes of amnesia. Transient epileptic amnesia is often associated with the rapid decline in recall of new information over hours to days (accelerated long-term forgetting - 'ALF'). It remains unknown how recognition memory is affected in TEA over time. Here,

Spike detection in the wild: Screening of suspected temporal lobe epilepsy cases using a tailored 2‐channel wearable EEG

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To clinically validate the contribution of a custom‐built EEG wearable device (waEEG) compared to a full 10–20 electrode array ambulatory EEG (aEEG) for screening epilepsy cases in patients with suspected temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) but negative routine EEGs. Methods Patients (aged 16–91 years) with clinically suspected TLE who were

The upside of epilepsy: Theories of an evolutionary paradox

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract The persistence of common, heritable conditions, like epilepsy, that are associated with reduced reproductive fitness is an evolutionary paradox. Endogenous analgesic, anti‐depressant, and inflammatory mechanisms able to repair compromised functions can offer advantages in unexpected crises.
