BACKGROUND The number of patients suffering post-stroke seizure after ischemic stroke (PSSi) is quite considerable, especially because ischemic stroke is more prevalent than hemorrhage in the general population. This study aimed to determine the predicting factors for seizure recurrence in ischemic stroke survivors and develop a clinical scoring system for the prediction of risks for seizure re...

Behaviour problems are common in children with epilepsy and it is not known when these problems begin. Some suggest that behaviour problems are caused by a neurological condition that also causes the seizures. Behaviour problems were investigated in 42 youths (23 girls and 19 boys) over a 4-month period beginning at the time of the initial seizure. Subjects were aged 4-15 years (mean, M = 8.4)....

OBJECTIVE In the United Kingdom and other European Union countries guidelines for driving following a first unprovoked seizure require the risk of another seizure in the next year to be less than 20%. Using data from one clinical trial, we previously developed a prognostic model to inform driving guidelines. The objective of this work is to externally validate our published model and demonstrat...

The aim of this study was to determine the incidence...

OBJECTIVE Epilepsy is a serious, potentially life-shortening brain disorder that occurs in patients of all ages and races. A total of 2-4% of people have experienced seizures at least once in their lifetime. Although treatment usually begins after a seizure, it is an important question whether the first cases of seizure do need to be treated by antiepileptic drugs. In this manner, we compare th...

The invertible, compact and Fredholm multiplication operators on generalized Lorentz-Zygmund (GLZ) spaces Lp,q;α, 1 < p ≤ ∞, 1 ≤ q ≤ ∞, α in the Euclidean space R, are characterized in this paper.

Background: A seizure occurs as result of a sudden and transitory abnormal electrical brain activity, that causes variety changes on behavior, movements level consciousness. After first unprovoked seizure, the risk recurrence in three following years varies from 23 to 71%. The after more than 24 hours defines diagnosis Epilepsy, which has numerous biological, cognitive, psychological social con...
