Status epilepticus can be a neurological manifestation of SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) infection. Systemic inflammatory syndrome due to cytokine release could play a role in COVID-19-related SE.
Some 134 proteins were significantly changed in both the hippocampus and frontal cortex, the front third of the brain, which is also responsible for controlling thought and body movements.
This study demonstrates the utility of deep learning for patient-specific seizure detection in EEG data.

Pediatric Epilepsy
Children most likely to benefit from hemispheric surgery can be selected and counseled through the implementation of a scale derived from a multiple regression model.
