* Hypoxaemia In infants between the ages of 1 month and 1 year convulsions are usually associated with fever. If there is no fever, fits secondary to a structural brain abnormality, hypoglycaemia, and hypocalcaemia should be considered. Fits can be divided into generalised or partial seizures. Generalised seizures include tonic-clonic and myoclonic fits. Partial seizures include focal motor and...
Seizure is a rare but documented adverse event associated with ampicillin, which one of the most commonly used antibiotics in pediatrics. We report case 4-month-old male infant Haemophilus influenzae type A meningitis that experienced recurrent tonic-clonic seizures, possibly secondary to ampicillin treatment. After administration was withdrawn and antiepileptic agents were administered, seizur...
BACKGROUND Despite the increasing number and variety of antiepileptic drugs, nearly 30 % of epileptic patients who receive appropriate medical attention have persisting seizures. Anticonvulsant activity has been demonstrated for different iridoid glycoside-rich plant extracts. This study was designed to investigate the anticonvulsant effects of iridoid glycosides purified from Feretia apodanthe...
OBJECTIVES To analyze the relative frequencies of various epileptic seizures and to study the age at onset of different seizure types in Nepalese children. DESIGN Prospective study. SETTING Hospital outpatient based in Kathmandu, Nepal, between November 2001 to October 2002. PARTICIPANTS 50 children diagnosed as epilepsy excluding neonatal and febrile seizures. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE Diag...
We report a 12-year-old girl with history of absence and generalized tonic-clonic seizures as well stereotyped, light-induced, hand-waving episodes (HWEs) (video 1). The latter were occasionally accompanied by eye fluttering. Notably, her maternal uncle had childhood-onset seizures. Video-EEG confirmed that HWEs epileptic in nature 2). She was started on fenfluramine addition to valproate parti...
www.aafp.org/afp AMERICAN FAMILY PHYSICIAN 91 tion or video review because the diagnosis requires other information, such as age of onset, etiology, family history, seizure frequency, imaging studies, precipitating factors, electroencephalography (EEG) and natural history. Most types of epilepsy are characterized by more than one type of seizure. Patients with focal (or partial) epilepsy may ha...
In this paper it is shown that Reservoir Computing can be successfully applied to perform real-time detection of epileptic seizures in Electroencephalograms (EEGs). Absence and tonic-clonic seizures are detected on intracranial EEG coming from rats. This resulted in an area under the Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) curve of about 0.99 on the data that was used. For absences an average ...
Hypoparathyroidism is a relatively common side effect of a thyroidectomy and leads to hypocalcemia. Carpopedal spasm and tetany are typical manifestations and usually occur within weeks after surgery. The first signs can be less typical and include movement disorders such as chorea, as well as symptoms of increased intracranial pressure or epileptic seizures. We describe two cases with generali...
Vitamin A and its derivatives have recently reported to be implicated in synaptic plasticity. The possible effect of vitamin A and its precursor, ?-carotene, on seizure acquisition was tested in PTZ kindling model of epilepsy. Vitamin A and ?-carotene were tested for their ability to 1) suppress seizures (clonic and tonic) and lethality induced by PTZ in PTZ-kindled mice (anticonvulsant effect)...
Parenteral injection of kainic acid (KA), a glutamate receptor agonist, causes severe and stereotyped behavioral convulsions in mice and is used as a rodent model for human temporal lobe epilepsy. The goal of this study is to examine the potential anti-convulsive effects of the neuro-active amino acid taurine, in the mouse model of KA-induced limbic seizures. We found that taurine (43 mg/Kg, s....
