The aim of this study is to describe aggressiveness in the epilepsy population and to identify possible relationships between this type of behavior and clinical and sociodemographic variables. Aggressive responses were measured by the Aggression Questionnaire (AQ), a standardized and validated instrument, which was administered to 503 patients from nine Italian centers for the care of epilepsy....
متن کاملEpigenome-Wide Association Study of Aggressive Behavior.
Aggressive behavior is highly heritable, while environmental influences, particularly early in life, are also important. Epigenetic mechanisms, such as DNA methylation, regulate gene expression throughout development and adulthood, and may mediate genetic and environmental effects on complex traits. We performed an epigenome-wide association study (EWAS) to identify regions in the genome where ...
متن کاملAggressive behaviour at a residential epilepsy centre
There is an extensive literature on epilepsy and violence, but no study has addressed aggression (i.e. apparently intentional violence) in a residential-care population. We performed a retrospective study at the Chalfont Centre for Epilepsy (a residential-care facility in rural Buckinghamshire) in order to determine the frequency and character of episodes of aggression. This allowed us to ident...
متن کاملPolymicrogyria-associated epilepsy: a multicenter phenotypic study from the Epilepsy Phenome/Genome Project.
PURPOSE Polymicrogyria (PMG) is an epileptogenic malformation of cortical development. We describe the clinical epilepsy and imaging features of a large cohort with PMG-related epilepsy. METHODS Participants were recruited through the Epilepsy Phenome/Genome Project, a multicenter collaborative effort to collect detailed phenotypic data on individuals with epilepsy. We reviewed phenotypic dat...
متن کاملDemographic, clinical, and microbial aspects of chronic and aggressive periodontitis in Colombia: a multicenter study.
BACKGROUND The microbial profile of periodontal disease varies among different human populations. This study evaluated the demographic, clinical, and microbiologic aspects of periodontitis in a multigeographic sample in Colombia. METHODS Three hundred twenty-five patients with chronic periodontitis (CP), 158 patients with aggressive periodontitis (AgP), and 137 healthy-gingivitis controls fro...
