Outcome and epilepsy following neonatal stroke in the Italian Registry of Infantile Thrombosis -
CONCLUSION: Mortality and recurrence after NAIS are rare, but neurological deficits occur in about 40%, and epilepsy in 12%. Perinatal and clinical factors may predict adverse outcomes and epilepsy.
Barriers and enablers to antiseizure medication adherence in children with epilepsy: a systematic review using the theoretical domains framework (TDF) -
CONCLUSION: These findings provide broad descriptions of the determinants of non-adherence enabling direct linkage to evidence-based BCTs and therefore ultimate creation of theory-informed interventions.
Functional gastrointestinal disorders in adults with epilepsy: associations with psychological symptoms, chronotype, and seizure burden -
CONCLUSION: Adults with epilepsy exhibit a substantially increased burden of functional gastrointestinal disorders accompanied by elevated psychological symptoms and altered chronotype distribution. Gastrointestinal symptoms were largely unreported clinically, despite their association with greater disease complexity. Systematic screening for functional gastrointestinal disorders, mood symptoms...
A systematic review of non-invasive biomarkers for seizure forecasting in pediatric epilepsy patients -
INTRODUCTION: Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders globally. While medications, surgical interventions, and dietary changes can be successful in controlling seizures, a subset of individuals experience refractory epilepsy and are at increased risk for sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP). Efforts to provide a detection system using devices have been successful at ide...
Growing up without a right hemisphere -
Research on the neuropsychological outcomes of hemispherectomy in childhood has largely focused on the development of language after surgery to the left hemisphere. That work has highlighted both the positive aspects of neural plasticity in that language representation is transferred to the right hemisphere and the negative aspects - the crowding effect- in that aspects of visual-spatial proces...
Susceptibility to seizures and expression of fibroblast growth factor 17 in rats with Cortical dysplasia and its effects on the hippocampal neurons -
CONCLUSION: Rats with CD exhibit decreased Fgf17 expression and increased epileptogenic susceptibility, which may be associated with reduced number of hippocampal neurons.
