Abstract This study aims to describe the main cognitive and behavioral comorbidities of Dravet syndrome (DS) Lennox–Gastaut (LGS), their impact on health-related quality life (QOL) patients caregivers, provide a summary neuropsychological tools available for evaluation these comorbidities. The in with DS LGS have profound effect QOL affected individuals caregivers and, as grow, tend surpass sei...

A 34-month-old female patient who had a prior history of generalized tonic-clonic seizures had been diagnosed with the Lennox-Gastuat syndrome. She was scheduled for epiblepharon repairs in both lower lids under general anesthesia. Preoperatively, her tonic seizure was poorly controlled with antiepileptic drugs. General anesthesia with thiopental and isoflurane was provided and the intraoperati...

A knowledge of birth order can be contributory to the evaluation of hereditary and environmental factors in disease. There is, however, no agreement as to whether a characteristic birth order pattern exists in epilepsy. Thus Brain (1956) and Lennox (1960) have written respectively 'epilepsy is relatively commoner among first born children than among later members of the family' and 'birth order...

Psychiatric disabilities among epileptics are well known (Pond & Bidwell 1960) and occur in 29 percent of all epileptics, and 50 per cent in temporal lobe epilepsy. A proportion of epileptics show obvious impairment of intellect and even in rare cases progress to intellectual deterioration (Lennox 1960). Subjects with frequent discharges of generalised spike and wave during runs of EEG, demonst...

In this paper we establish some subnormal embeddings of groups into groups with additional properties; in particular embeddings of countable groups into 2-generated groups with some extra properties. The results obtained are generalizations of theorems of P. Hall, R. Dark, B. Neumann, Hanna Neumann, G. Higman on embeddings of that type. Considering subnormal embeddings of finite groups into fin...

INTRODUCTION It is known that cells from different animal species show marked differences in their susceptibility to the destructive action of diphtheria toxin (Lennox & Kaplan, 1957). It therefore seemed possible that diphtheria toxin might be used as a speciesspecific marker in the study of interspecific hybrid cells and perhaps also as a selective agent to facilitate the isolation of such hy...
