Latest on EEG and imaging in epilepsy, how tests predict outcomes and guide treatment, all presented in plain English for normal people.
Researchers studied a type of epilepsy called self-limited epilepsy with centrotemporal spikes (SeLECTS) in 192 children.
This study looked at the long-term results of a treatment called stereotactic radiofrequency thermocoagulation (SRT) for patients with hypothalamic hamartomas (HHs), which are brain growths that can cause difficult-to-control seizures.
A recent study looked at the role of EEG (electroencephalogram) tests in patients who had their first unprovoked seizure.
Researchers studied the patterns of brain activity in people with focal epilepsy, focusing on a specific type of brain wave called “focal delta slowing.” This type of slowing appears on electroencephalograms (EEGs), which are tests that measure electrical activity in…
Researchers studied the effects of different blood pressure medications on the risk of developing epilepsy in patients who had an ischemic stroke and also had high blood pressure.
This study focused on families from the Pashtun population in Pakistan who have cases of epilepsy that had not been thoroughly examined at the genetic level.
Researchers studied how to find and confirm specific microRNA markers in blood plasma that could help predict post-traumatic epilepsy (PTE) after brain injuries.
This study looked at how EEG (electroencephalography) readings can help identify different types of genetic epilepsy in children and how these readings relate to their neurological outcomes.
Researchers studied the use of two types of brain monitoring—scalp EEG (scEEG) and stereo EEG (SEEG)—in patients with drug-resistant epilepsy.
