Dynamic PET, as an addition to the noninvasive toolkit, can expand the number of epilepsy surgery candidates.
The extensive functional and neuropathological characterization of this TBI model, provides a tool to identify sensitive measures of epilepsy development and severity clinically useful for increasing PTE prediction in high-risk TBI patients.
Pediatric Epilepsy
Caregivers using e-diaries for epileptic spasms may miss individual spams, be more likely to report long clusters, round counts to the nearest five, and underreport nighttime spasms.
The present in vitro findings further support careful adjustment of maternal antiseizure medication doses during pregnancy.
Although pathophysiology is not well-understood, the cerebellum likely plays an inherent role in inhibiting aberrant cortical epileptogenesis.
Increasing the dose of statin treatment during the acute phase of ischemic stroke reduces the incidence of post-stroke epilepsy.
In the near future, these findings may be harnessed to rethink imaging and treatment options for epilepsy patients.
Pediatric Epilepsy
Enhancing teachers' knowledge about epilepsy has the potential to improve children's academic and social success in school.
People with epilepsy with a wide range of disease burden should be encouraged to participate in regular exercise to potentially improve quality of life.
