Electroencephalography in the Diagnosis of Genetic Generalized Epilepsy Syndromes
Genetic generalized epilepsy (GGE) consists of several syndromes diagnosed and classified on the basis of clinical features and electroencephalographic (EEG) abnormalities. The main EEG feature of GGE is bilateral, synchronous, symmetric, and generalized spike-wave complex. Other classic EEG abnormalities are polyspikes, epileptiform K-complexes and sleep spindles, polyspike-wave discharges, oc...
متن کاملEthnic variation of genetic (idiopathic) generalized epilepsy in Malaysia
PURPOSE Ethnic variation in epilepsy classification was reported in the Epilepsy Phenome/Genome Project. This study aimed to determine the ethnic variation in the prevalence of genetic (idiopathic) generalized epilepsy (GGE) and GGE with family history in a multi-ethnic Asian population in Malaysia. METHOD In this cross-sectional study, 392 patients with a clinical diagnosis of GGE were recru...
متن کاملA clinical study of syndromes of idiopathic (genetic) generalized epilepsy.
OBJECTIVES Epidemiologic data concerning idiopathic generalized epilepsies (IGEs) are scarce or often unreliable. In the current study, we specifically analyzed the syndromes of IGE based on their demographic, clinical, and EEG findings to determine if other than the seizure type(s) and age of onset, there are any other distinctive features to distinguish these syndromes of IGEs from one anothe...

متن کاملDetermination of Haptoglobin Genotype in an Iranian Population with Idiopathic Generalized Epilepsy
Background: Haptoglobin (Hp) is a plasma α2-sialoglycoprotein that contains alpha and beta chains. It displays in three common phenotypes, Hp1-1, Hp2-1, and Hp2-2. Proteins expressed by polymorphic genes have grossly different molecular sizes resulting in different diffusion rates in the brain. Haptoglobin expressed by the Hp2-2 genotype has lower hemoglobin-binding capacity than Hp1-1 or...
