Epilepsy is one of the most common but genetically complex neurological disorders in humans. Identifying animal models that recapitulate human epilepsies is important for pharmacological studies of anticonvulsants, dissection of molecular and biochemical pathogenesis of epilepsy, and discovery of
We focused on stable gastric pentadecapeptide BPC 157 (GEPPPGKPADDAGLV, MW 1419, an anti-ulcer peptide efficient in inflammatory bowel disease trials (PL 14736), no toxicity reported) because of its hepatoprotective effects. We investigate a particular aspect of the sudden onset of encephalopathy
In order to study whether a theophylline-related seizure is caused by a decrease in serum vitamin B6, serum pyridoxal (PAL) levels were measured in children with bronchial asthma treated with theophylline. The serum PAL levels of asthmatic children (n = 31) treated with theophylline were
The initial presentation of acute encephalopathy with biphasic seizures and late reduced diffusion (AESD) is indistinguishable from that of complex febrile seizures (FS), which poses a great diagnostic challenge for clinicians. Excitotoxicity is speculated to be the pathogenesis of This study aimed to determine the post-ictal prolactin (PL) response in different types of seizures and seizure-like events in children, and correlate with the post-ictal duration. Patients were divided into group I (generalized tonic-clonic seizures, complex partial seizures or simple partial
OBJECTIVE
Children and adolescents with psychogenic non-epileptic seizures (PNES) and epilepsy are known to have psychosocial problems. The aim of the present study was to compare the psychosocial difficulties, history of stressful life events/abuse, psychiatric diagnosis, and self-esteem of
OBJECTIVE
To compare semiological characteristics, precipitating stress factors and psychiatric diagnoses of girls and boys with psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNESs).
METHODS
We retrospectively reviewed medical records of children diagnosed with PNES and who also underwent psychiatric
OBJECTIVE
The clinical characteristic of attack is frequently difficult to unequivocal establishment by observation. It refers especially to seizures in youngest children, due to complicated attack morphology. VideoEEG as a diagnostic tool makes possible more precise establishment of seizures type
OBJECTIVE
We sought to define the mechanism of total body irradiation (TBI)-induced seizures in NOS1(-/-) mice and amelioration by intra-esophageal manganese superoxide dismutase-plasmid liposomes (MnSOD-PL).
METHODS
We evaluated the role of vagus nerve pathways in irradiation-induced seizures using
This study investigated the incidence of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and psychiatric co-morbidity following epileptic seizure, whether alexithymia mediated the relationship between self-efficacy and psychiatric outcomes, and whether the mediational effect was moderated by the severity of
GABA is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, and its concentration in the brain in associated with a variety of neurological disorders, including seizures, convulsions, and epilepsy. The concentration of GABA is modulated by the pyridoxal-5'-phosphate (PLP)-dependent
Status epilepticus (SE) is considered a risk for cognitive impairment. Studies have indicated that SE cause more cognitive decline than multiple lifetime generalized tonic clonic (GTC) seizures. The aim of the study was to investigate whether patients suffering from SE or from multiple lifetime GTC
OBJECTIVE
To explore the efficacy and safety of eslicarbazepine acetate (BIA 2-093), a new antiepileptic drug, as adjunctive therapy in adult patients with partial epilepsy.
METHODS
A multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study was conducted in 143 refractory patients aged 18-65
Pyridox(am)ine 5'-phosphate oxidase (PNPO) catalyzes oxidation of pyridoxine 5'-phosphate (PNP) and pyridoxamine 5'-phosphate (PMP) to pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP), the active form of vitamin B6. PNPO deficiency results in neonatal/infantile seizures and neurodevelopmental delay. To gain
Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders and approximately one-third of patients with epilepsy are resistant to treatment. In order to develop our understanding of the metabolic changes occurring during seizure a metabolomic approach was employed. Using a pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)
