Epileptic seizures presenting as motor phenomena without concomitant conscious change may be confused with one of the paroxysmal movement disorders.

متن کاملDo Disorders of Movement Cause Movement Disorders and Dementia?
Neurons require long-distance microtubule-based transport systems to ferry vital cellular cargoes and signals between cell bodies and axonal or dendritic terminals. Considerable progress has been made on developing a molecular understanding of these processes and how they are integrated into normal neuronal functions. Recent work also suggests that these transport systems may fail early in the ...

Sleep can be broadly divided...
