<h3>Background and Objectives</h3> The genetic developmental epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) comprise a large group of severe epilepsy syndromes, with wide phenotypic spectrum. Currently, the rates convulsive status epilepticus (CSE), nonconvulsive (NCSE), sudden unexplained death in (SUDEP) these diseases are not well understood. We aimed to describe proportions patients frequently observed DEEs who developed CSE, NCSE, mortality, SUDEP. Understanding risks serious presentations each DEE...
We investigated the validity of Gait Outcomes Assessment List (GOAL), as an assessment gait function in children with cerebral palsy (CP).We studied a prospective cohort 105 CP (Gross Motor Function Classification System [GMFCS] levels I-III; 65 males, 40 females; mean [SD] age 11y 11mo [3y 5mo], range 6-20y), who attended over 10-month period. Parents completed GOAL, Functional Mobility Scale (FMS), and Questionnaire (FAQ) during their child's evaluation. Ninety instrumented analysis (IGA)....
