Burden of epilepsy in China and its provinces, 1990 to 2019: findings from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019
Epilepsy accounts for a significant portion of the global disease burden. However, little is known about the disease burden of epilepsy in China and its provinces.
Development of epilepsy after recovery from posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome in children with renal disease
Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) generally shows complete recovery of clinical and imaging findings within several weeks, although a few cases show neurological sequelae, such as developmental delay and epilepsy after recovery from PRES.
Neuroimaging in Adults and Children With Epilepsy
This article discusses the fundamental importance of optimal epilepsy imaging using the International League Against Epilepsy–endorsed Harmonized Neuroimaging of Epilepsy Structural Sequences (HARNESS) protocol and the use of multimodality imaging in the evaluation of patients with drug-resistant epilepsy. It outlines a methodical approach to evaluating these images, particularly in the context of clinical information.
Severe Epilepsy and Movement Disorder May Be Early Symptoms of TMEM106B-Related Hypomyelinating Leukodystrophy
To report the clinical presentation of the first Italian child affected by hypomyelinating leukodystrophy (HLD) associated with the recurrent variant p.Asp252Asn in the TMEM106B gene.
Psychomotor development and seizure features in idiopathic myoclonic epilepsy in infancy
Myoclonic epilepsy in infancy (MEI) is a rare syndrome characterized by generalized myoclonic seizures (MS) that occur within the first 3 years of life. In the present study, the form of onset, and clinical and electroencephalogram (EEG) features were analyzed.
Aegle marmelos Ameliorates Epilepsy through Suppression of Oxidative Stress and Inflammation
Epilepsy remains one of the leading neurological diseases. More than one mechanism exists for epilepsy. Inflammation and oxidative stress are amongst the mechanisms leading to epilepsy. In the current work, we evaluated whether Aegle marmelos (AM) is able to reverse epilepsy.
Management of epilepsy in brain tumor patients
A concise review of recent findings in brain tumor-related epilepsy (BTRE), with focus on the effect of antitumor treatment on seizure control and the management of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs).
Surgical Treatments for Epilepsies in Children Aged 1–36 Months: A Systematic Review
Early life epilepsies (epilepsies in children 1–36 months old) are common and may be refractory to antiseizure medications. We summarize findings of a systematic review commissioned by the American Epilepsy Society to assess evidence and identify evidence gaps for surgical treatments for epilepsy in children aged 1–36 months without infantile spasms.
Analysis of Deep Brain Stimulation Lead Targeting in the Stimulation of Anterior Nucleus of the Thalamus for Epilepsy Clinical Trial
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the anterior nucleus of the thalamus (ANT) is an effective therapy for patients with drug-resistant focal epilepsy. Best practices for surgical targeting of the ANT can be refined as new information becomes available regarding effective stimulation sites.
