multiple sclerosis/癲癇性発作

The role of different factors in influencing the risk of seizures during multiple sclerosis (MS) is not known. To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of risk factors for epilepsy during MS. Pubmed, Google scholar, and Scopus databases were searched. Articles published in English

Early-onset multiple sclerosis (EOMS) is defined as the first presentation of symptoms in childhood (before the age of 16 years). EOMS occurs in about 0.4% to 10.5% of multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. In this retrospective population-based study we aimed to describe the clinical/paraclinical

OBJECTIVE The 2014 International League Against Epilepsy clinical definition of epilepsy allows diagnosis after a single unprovoked seizure if the 10-year recurrence risk exceeds 60%. Multiple sclerosis (MS) carries an increased risk of epilepsy, but the risk after a first seizure is unknown. We

Epileptic seizures associated with intrathecal baclofen (ITB) application have been observed in patients with traumatic brain injury. A higher incidence of seizures has also been reported in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) receiving ITB. To our knowledge, no case of a first epileptic seizure

Seizures occur 2-3 times more frequently in Multiple Sclerosis (MS) patients compared to the general population. The prevalence of seizures is reported to be 1.5-7.8% in MS population. However, it is unclear if seizure is an indirect symptom of neuroinflammation in MS. In our study, we explored the

Despite the now significant contribution of magnetic resonance imaging, the accurate and timely diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS) is still clinically challenging. Al Hussona et al., with their case series, highlight the complexities of attributing paroxysmal, and in particular cortical, symptoms

The exact prevalence of epileptic seizures in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) is still a matter of some controversy. In a population-based, unselected group of 423 patients with MS we identified 17 (4.02%) with epileptic seizures. The mean age at onset of MS was 25.2 years and at onset of

The incidence of seizures is generally accepted to be greater in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) than in the general population, and rarely, MS can initially present as seizure. To present a case report of seizure as the initial symptom of MS, to quantify the occurrence of seizures among MS

Epileptic seizures may be of a provoked origin in acute phases of multiple sclerosis (MS), while chronic epilepsy typically occurs in advanced stages of the disease. A case of seizure provocation during diagnostic transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is described here with a corresponding central

To study the risk of developing unprovoked seizures among patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), we used 1885 new onset seizure cases, 15,080 controls and defined exposure as a hospital discharge diagnosis of MS or SLE. The odds ratio with 95% confidence

BACKGROUND The frequency of seizures in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) ranges from 1.5% to 7.8% and is considerably more common than chance events. The etiopathogenesis of seizures in MS is still poorly understood. METHODS A review of the literature on seizures and MS using

Seizure activity is a known complication associated with multiple sclerosis; however, it may also result from side effects of the treatments for the disease. A 21-year-old man with Tourette's syndrome, pedophilia, Asperger's syndrome, and multiple sclerosis experienced seizures after receiving

BACKGROUND Pain is a very commonly reported symptom and often drives patients to seek medical attention; however, it can prove a very difficult diagnostic conundrum and even more challenging to treat effectively. Accurately determining the primary pain generator is key, as certain conditions have

BACKGROUND Multiple sclerosis is an inflammatory, autoimmune, disease of the white mass of the brain, which sometimes may involve the gray matter (subcortical and ones in the anterior horns of the spinal cord) with the chronic nature and generally with progressive course. As a possible cause of this

In a patient with multiple sclerosis (MS), dysphasic seizures were the only manifestation of a relapse. There was a strong correlation between time course of seizures and EEG, and between a localized EEG focus and a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-verified encephalitic plaque in the left temporal
