Effects of oxcarbazepine on cognitive function in children and adolescents with partial seizures.
The authors investigated the effect of oxcarbazepine on cognitive function in children and adolescents (6 to younger than 17 years of age) with newly diagnosed partial seizures in an open-label comparison with standard antiepileptic drug therapy (carbamazepine and valproate). No differences in cognitive tests were observed between oxcarbazepine and carbamazepine/valproate over a 6-month treatme...

متن کاملPartial cognitive-dysmnesic seizures as a model for studying psychosis.
Nineteen patients were analyzed who exhibited cognitive-dysmnesic psychic partial seizures and structural damage shown by means of CT scans. It was observed that these seizures originated in the amygdala-hippocampal system, coinciding with the effects found when using electrical stimulation of the brain. An attempt is made to relate these findings to the present biochemical hypotheses of schizo...
