PURPOSE Febrile seizure, the most common type of pediatric convulsive disorder, is a benign seizure syndrome distinct from epilepsy. However, as epilepsy is also common during childhood, we aimed to identify the prognostic factors that can predict epilepsy in children with febrile seizures. METHODS The study comprised 249 children at the Korea University Ansan Hospital who presented with febr...
INTRODUCTION Time to first seizure is a common outcome in antiepileptic drug (AED) studies. Previous studies have typically failed to find statistically significant differences between carbamazepine (CBZ) and valproate (VPS). We re-analyzed a meta-analysis comparing CBZ and VPS monotherapy with new powerful statistical methods that incorporate baseline seizure rate information. METHODS Indivi...
OBJECTIVE A growing body of evidence suggests that increased blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability can contribute to the development of seizures. The protease tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) has been shown to promote BBB permeability and susceptibility to seizures. In this study, we examined the pathway regulated by tPA in seizures. METHODS An experimental model of kainate-induced seizure...
BACKGROUND Patients afflicted with low-grade glioma (LGG) frequently suffer from seizures. The mechanisms of seizure initiation in these patients remain poorly understood. Tumor location has been correlated with seizure initiation. However, these correlative studies relied on dichotomized data analysis based on arbitrary lobe assignments. As a result, the lesion-symptom correlation may be incor...
This case illustrates an uncommon form of symptomatic startle-induced epilepsy associated with infantile hemiplegia. Seizure semiology, neuroimaging and neurophysiological findings support involvement of the supplementary motor area in the generation of this seizure type. We present the case of an 11-year-old girl with an uncommon form of startle-induced seizures, illustrated on video-EEG, agai...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES To determine the prevalence, type and site of the injuries due to tramadol-induced seizures in the patients who had referred after its overdose or use of its therapeutic dose. MATERIAL AND METHODS All patients referring to Loghman Hakim Poison Hospital (February 2009 to April 2010) due to tramadol-induced seizures were included. The patients' data including age, gend...
PURPOSE Studies on seizures only with an alteration of consciousness were limited mainly to generalized epilepsy. This seizure type has been described rarely in focal epilepsy. We aimed to analyze the semiologic features of this seizure type in focal and generalized epilepsies in a blinded design. METHODS A total of 338 seizure videos in 100 patients were included exclusively by semiologic cr...
OBJECTIVE To give a comprehensive overview of the phenotypic and genetic spectrum of STXBP1 encephalopathy (STXBP1-E) by systematically reviewing newly diagnosed and previously reported patients. METHODS We recruited newly diagnosed patients with STXBP1 mutations through an international network of clinicians and geneticists. Furthermore, we performed a systematic literature search to review ...
Gelastic seizure is an uncommon type of seizure which is characterized by recurrent bouts of unprovoked and stereotyped laughter. It is commonly observed in patients with hypothalamic hamartoma, while its association with other cerebral lesions is rare. The patient was a 15-year-old right-handed male. His chief complaints were recurrent onsets of laughter and unconsciousness for 10 years. On av...
OBJECTIVE We aimed to determine the clinical and electroencephalographic (EEG) characteristics of the patients with West syndrome (WS) in south Iran. MATERIALS & METHODS In this retrospective study, all patients with a clinical diagnosis of WS were recruited in the outpatient epilepsy clinic at Shiraz University of Medical Sciences between September 2008 and May 2012. Age, gender, age at seiz...
