Safety and Efficacy of Perampanel as Adjunctive Therapy in Patients with Refractory Focal Epilepsy Over 12 Months: Clinical Experience in a Real-World Setting
Tập 05 Số 02 - Trang 075-079 - 2018
Abstract Background The main purpose of this study is to assess efficacy and
tolerability of perampanel (PER), a noncompetitive
α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid receptor antagonist, as an
add-on treatment in adult patients with refractory focal-onset seizures.
Patients and Methods A prospective, open label, observational study was
conducted in patients with refractory focal-on...
Proprioceptive-induced seizure in diabetic non-ketotic state: A video case report
Tập 1 - Trang 36-38 - 2014
AbstractA 63-year-old diabetic gentleman with proprioceptive-induced seizures is
reported. Marked hyperglycemia due to discontinuation of anti-diabetic
medication was the precipitating cause. Distinctive clinical feature of this
case was recurrent focal motor seizures involving the left upper limb
precipitated by volitional movements of the same limb and self-aborted by
holding the affected limb w...
A first-ever dedicated comprehensive review of incidence of epilepsy in South America and Caribbean
Tập 4 - Trang 65-69 - 2017
AbstractIn order to understand true incident burden of epilepsy in South America
and Caribbean, several sources were searched in multiple languages using
keywords and combinations. The results were presented as counts, proportions,
means, and/or medians along with their 95% confidence intervals (CI). No
information was found from Caribbean and no information was available from six
South American c...
Time to treatment predicts seizure outcome in a high-treatment gap epilepsy population
Tập 2 - Trang 72-77 - 2015
Abstract Objectives To investigate the relationship between time to
antiepileptic drug (AED) treatment (TTT) and seizure outcome in a high treatment
gap sub-Sahara African setting. Methods Clinical and demographic characteristics
of 72 adults with epilepsy aged 18–75 years were obtained. We estimated TTT as
the difference between the duration of epilepsy and the duration of treatment.
Indices of c...
Arranged marriages in people with epilepsy: A pilot knowledge, attitudes and practices survey from India
Tập 3 - Trang 75-79 - 2016
Abstract Introduction Marriage is a socially challenging barrier in the personal
lives of people with epilepsy worldwide. However, it is during arranges
marriages, which are common in South Asian communities, that epilepsy is most
profoundly stigmatizing. We hypothesized that the felt stigma associated with
epilepsy during arranged marriages affects women more frequently and intensely.

A child with global neuroregression with refractory epilepsy
Tập 1 - Trang 92-93 - 2014
AbstractHypomyelinating disorders have wide spectrum of clinical and
radiological manifestations. A 17-month-old girl presented with baseline global
developmental delay with insidious onset global neuroregression with refractory
seizures from 1 year of age. Her birth and family history were noncontributory.
Salient features on examination were central hypotonia and retinal cherry red
spot. MRI Bra...
Causative factors and phenomenology of depression in EPILEPSY—A review
Tập 4 - Trang 70-78 - 2017
AbstractIt is a known fact that depression is the one of the leading causes of
years lived with disability and the fourth leading cause of disability-adjusted
life-years worldwide. Depression is often under-recognized among patients of
epilepsy due to lack of awareness of depressive symptoms. Due to improper
management of depression in epileptic patients, it can interfere with treatment
outcomes a...
Evaluation of DNA damage and mutation screening of exon 26 of SCN1A gene in patients with epilepsy

Abstract Background Epilepsy is one of the most prevalent neurological
disorders. Around 50 million people worldwide suffer from Epilepsy, 85% of them
are from the developing countries. It is a most significant as well as common
brain disorder worldwide. Sodium channel alpha 1 subunit gene (SCN1A) is most
commonly mutated the gene in different forms of epilepsy. Objective To screen
the genomic dam...
To evaluate the anti-kindling effect of allopregnanolone alone and its interaction with sodium valporate in pentylenetetrazole induced kindling model
Tập 3 - Trang 68-74 - 2016
Abstract Background and purpose Studies in the animal models of epilepsy have
suggested the anti-seizure effects of neuroactive steroids and its derivatives
in kainic acid and pilocarpine induced limbic seizures and status epilepticus in
mice, but no such studies have been reported in the published literature on the
role of allopregnanolone in chemical kindling model and its interaction with
sodiu...
