Aberrant long-range functional connectivity density in generalized tonic-clonic seizures
Studies in generalized tonic-clonic seizures (GTCS) have reported both structural and functional alterations in the brain. However, changes in spontaneous neuronal functional organization in GTCS remain largely unknown.In this study, 70 patients with idiopathic generalized epilepsy characterized by tonic-clonic seizures and 70 age- and sex-matched healthy controls were recruited. Here, function...
متن کاملOxaliplatin-Induced Tonic-Clonic Seizures
Oxaliplatin is a common chemotherapy drug used for colon and gastric cancers. Common side effects are peripheral neuropathy, hematological toxicity, and allergic reactions. A rare side effect is seizures which are usually associated with posterior reversible leukoencephalopathy syndrome (PRES). A 50-year-old male patient presented with severe abdominal pain. CT scan of the abdomen showed acute ...
متن کاملDo generalized tonic-clonic seizures in infancy exist?
OBJECTIVE To determine the frequency of generalized tonic-clonic seizures (GTCS) in infants (1 month to 2 years). METHODS From a total of 2,112 patients monitored in our video-EEG lab from May 2000 through January 2005, 109 distinct seizures in 77 infants were reviewed. Eight events in eight patients were excluded because of video files insufficiently reliable to determine the clinical charac...
متن کاملDetection of generalized tonic–clonic seizures using surface electromyographic monitoring
OBJECTIVE A prospective multicenter phase III trial was undertaken to evaluate the performance and tolerability in the epilepsy monitoring unit (EMU) of an investigational wearable surface electromyographic (sEMG) monitoring system for the detection of generalized tonic-clonic seizures (GTCSs). METHODS One hundred ninety-nine patients with a history of GTCSs who were admitted to the EMU in 11...
متن کاملProlonged atrial fibrillation following generalized tonic–clonic seizures
We describe two male patients with focal epilepsy in whom transitory episodes of atrial fibrillation (AF) lasting for up to 25h were detected in the context of generalized tonic-clonic seizures (GTCSs). In five of seven previously published cases of transitory AF associated with epileptic seizures, AF was also associated with GTCS, suggesting a pathophysiological link via GTCS-related increase ...
