Background and Purpose Epilepsy is a common chronic neurological disorder. About one third of epilepsy patients will suffer from drug resistance after rational selection of antiepileptic drug treatment. The formation of drug-resistant epilepsy has quite a few causes of which genetic factors are considered to be the most important. Previous studies ...

More than 30% of patients with epilepsy are refractory and have inadequate seizure control. Focal cortical cooling (FCC) suppresses epileptiform discharges (EDs) in patients with refractory focal cortical epilepsy. However, little is known about the mechanism by which FCC inhibits seizures at 15°C, and FCC treatment is highly invasive. Therefore, n...

Electrical source imaging (ESI) is used increasingly to estimate the epileptogenic zone (EZ) in patients with epilepsy. Directed functional connectivity (DFC) coupled to ESI helps to better characterize epileptic networks, but studies on interictal activity have relied on high-density recordings. We investigated the accuracy of ESI and DFC for loca...

Background and Purpose The susceptibility-weighted imaging form of brain MRI using minimum intensity projection (mIP) is useful for assessing traumatic brain injuries because it readily reveals deoxyhemoglobin or paramagnetic compounds. We investigated the efficacy of using this methodology in nontraumatic patients. Methods We retrospectively analy...

The dynamics of the postictal period, which may demonstrate such dramatic clinical phenomena as focal neurological deficits, prolonged coma and immobility, and even sudden death, are poorly understood. We sought to classify and characterize postictal phases of bilateral tonic-clonic seizures based on electroencephalographic (EEG) criteria and assoc...

Introduction: Eslicarbazepine acetate (ESL) is an antiepileptic drug approved as monotherapy or add-on for the treatment of epilepsy with seizures of focal onset. ESL owns a good profile in terms of efficacy and tolerability, but its effects on EEG activity and connectivity are unknown. The purpose of this study was to investigate EEG activity and ...
