The prognostic value of exact location of hypometabolism measured by PET within the temporal lobe is still debating. Some studies suggested that patients with mesial temporal hypometabolism on PET ...

Seizures can be predicted more than 30 minutes before onset in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy, opening the door to a therapy using electrodes that could be activated to prevent seizures from ...

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 ...

In temporal lobe epilepsy — a common and debilitating form of the disorder — seizures often cause those affected to lose consciousness. But why that happens has been unclear. In a new study, Yale ...

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 ...

For patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) that can't be controlled by medications, a minimally invasive laser procedure performed under MRI guidance provides a safe and effective ...

A team of researchers from the Florida State University College of Medicine has found that an amino acid produced by the brain could play a crucial role in preventing a type of epileptic seizure.

Epilepsy is a neurological condition characterised by recurrent episodes of seizures. Most cases of epilepsy do not have a clear cause. The primary pathogenesis of many forms of epilepsy is an ...

* Seizure spread across the brain, not just origin, drives awareness loss * Findings may inspire //future treatments like brain stimulation Researchers have long known that seizures can affect ...
