Cognitive Impairment in Epilepsy: A Clinical Study
Background: Patients with epilepsy have relatively higher risk for psychopathology and cognitive impairment. The research data indicate that the cognitive impairment and deterioration are due to associated brain damage and not attributable to epilepsy. The objective of the current study is to evaluate the cognitive functions in patients with adequate seizure control, without obvious brain damag...
متن کاملCognitive Impairment in Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cognitive impairments are frequent consequences of epilepsy, with intellectual ability reportedly being lower in patients with idiopathic generalized epilepsies than in the general population. However, neuropsychological investigations have been rarely performed in patients with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME). We aimed to quantify the cognitive function in JME patients...
متن کاملPersistent cognitive impairment after transient ischemic attack.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE By definition, the symptoms of a transient ischemic attack (TIA) subside completely within 24 hours. Imaging studies show signs of persistent ischemic tissue damage in a substantial amount of patients with TIA. Cerebral infarction can cause permanent cognitive impairment. Whether permanent cognitive impairment occurs after TIA is unclear, as is its profile. METHODS Pati...
متن کاملCognitive impairment in epilepsy: the role of reduced network flexibility
Objective The dominant model of cognitive impairment in focal epilepsy has emphasised structural bases for cognitive deficits. Current theories of cognition in the healthy brain emphasise the importance of the reweighting of brain network interactions in support of task performance. Here, we explore the hypothesis that cognitive deficits in epilepsy arise through abnormalities of dynamic functi...
متن کاملCognitive impairment in epilepsy: State of affairs and clinical relevance
The consequences of epilepsy are often as serious as having the disorder itself. One particularly important consequence is the impairment of cognitive function. Cognitive function is a higher order behavior–—that is, the capacity of the brain to program adaptive behavior, solve problems, memorize information, and focus attention. Epilepsy is a symptom of ictal and interictal brain dysfunction. ...
