New research by the Human Brain Project has found that in the brains of patients with epilepsy, changes in large scale neuronal activations can be detected in the brain's resting state activity, even ...
In a retrospective cohort, a clinical heuristic composed of eight binary variables helped identify which patients with medial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) were best suited for stereotactic laser ...
Temporal lobe epilepsy, which results in recurring seizures and cognitive dysfunction, is associated with premature aging of brain cells. A new study from researchers at Georgetown University Medical ...
A 23 year-old woman presented for evaluation of intractable seizures. Her seizures would typically start with the perception of an odd smell followed by a staring spell. She would remain awake but ...
The temporal lobe is part of the cerebral cortex. It plays a role in memory, enables people to process sound and vision, and is crucial for recognizing objects and language. Dysfunction in the ...
The present study was designed to evaluate the genetic mechanisms in patients with focal epileptiform discharges in the mid-temporal or central regions, an electroencephalographic abnormality of high ...
Epilepsy surgery has been shown to be an effective treatment for patients with intractable epilepsy. The only randomized controlled trial conducted in this setting to date found a dramatic advantage ...
