Summary: Purpose: Questioning the presence of any possible prognostic predictors, this study includes a long‐term follow‐up clinical and EEG characteristics 16 patients with idiopathic partial epilepsy (IPE) who subsequently developed electrical status epilepticus during slow sleep (ESES) spectrum disorders. Methods: Epilepsy, cognitive behavioral parameters, waking non–rapid eye movement (NREM) data were evaluated scored for initial stage (i.e., IPE stage), preESES, ESES, ESES remission...
Summary: Purpose : Despite the benign prognoses of idiopathic partial epilepsies, particularly regarding response seizures to treatment, some evidence now exists that patients with such disorders may have subtle neuropsychological deficits. This study was designed investigate several modalities functioning in a group 21 patients, ranging from 6 14 years age, occipital lobe epilepsy (IOLE). The case were compared healthy controls matched for sex, and socioeconomic status. Methods A battery...
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a chronic, progressive cognitive disorder characterized by prominent episodic memory impairment. The contribution of neuronal damage and neuroinflammation to this process has been investigated measuring various substances. Two the most promising substances in serum plasma studies are visinin-like protein 1 (VILIP-1) tyrosine (Y), lysine (K), leucine (L)-40 (YKL-40). These markers may lead early diagnosis new treatment options. Serum VILIP-1 YKL-40 levels were...
Panayiotopoulos syndrome (PS) is a form of idiopathic, partial epilepsy childhood with high prevalence rate, but poor clinical recognition, possibly due to the characteristics seizure, which not infrequently lack common epileptic motor and/or sensory phenomena. Instead, autonomic symptoms such as retching and vomiting, predominate. Semiological knowledge seizures in PS depends mainly on parental observations, enough ictal-EEG data are available, rarity seizures. In addition previous...
To define atypical clinical and EEG features of patients with subacute sclerosing panencephalitis that may require an overview differential diagnosis.A total 66 EEGs belonging to 53 (17 females 36 males) consecutive serologically confirmed were included in this study. Patient files data evaluated retrospectively. the study sleep-waking and/or video-EEG records at least 2 hours duration. Cranial MRIs taken months before or after included.Age range onset disease was 15 192 (mean age: 80.02...
Although the seizure prognosis is mostly favorable in idiopathic partial epilepsies, there some empirical evidence showing that subtle neuropsychological impairments, with a consequent risk of academic underachievement, are not rare. We investigated functioning including attention, memory, visuomotor ability, and executive closer look at associated mathematical ability patients epilepsies. A battery age-appropriate, mathematics achievement tests was administered to 30 participants epilepsy...
Panayiotopoulos syndrome (PS) is an age-related seizure susceptibility that affects the central autonomic system. Although majority of few ictal recordings obtained so far suggest occipital origin, semiological and interictal EEG data appear to favour more extensive involvement. In this study, characteristics (including those based on semiology EEG) children with (n=24) lesion-related, symptomatic lobe epilepsy (SOLE) (n=23) were compared.Detailed information parameters including...
<b>Background</b> Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is a late complication of measles infection. Immune dysfunction related to genetic susceptibility has been considered in disease pathogenesis. A functional single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) <i>granzyme B</i> gene (<i>GZMB</i>) reported several pathologies may also be involved SSPE. <b>Patients and Methods</b> An SNP (rs8192917, G → A, R→Q) was screened 118 SSPE patients 221 healthy controls (HC) by polymerase chain...
