Apr 11th, 2021 - To assess clinical and demographic characteristics in two cohorts of elderly patients with drug-resistant focal epilepsy, undergoing resective epilepsy surgery (RES). Further, to determine seizure, neuropsychological, and mental health outcomes af...

Apr 11th, 2021 - Anxiety and depressive symptoms are prevalent in patients with refractory mesial temporal lobe epilepsy related to hippocampal sclerosis (MTLE-HS) before and after anterior temporal lobectomy (ATL). (1) To follow the levels of anxiety and depressi...

Apr 10th, 2021 - It is established that the severity of depressive and anxiety symptoms is associated with poorer quality of life (QOL) in persons with drug-resistant epilepsy. We aimed to verify the presence of subsyndromic depressive episodes (SDEs) and subsyndr...

Apr 9th, 2021 - Experimental and clinical data suggest an impact of serotonergic signaling on seizure susceptibility and epilepsy-associated psychiatric comorbidities. Previous µPET studies revealed increased binding of 5-HT1A receptor ligand [18F]MPPF in two rat...

Jan 21st, 2020 - BALTIMORE – Sparing, rather than resecting, a normal-appearing hippocampus in a patient with temporal lobe epilepsy is correlated with an increased risk of early seizure recurrence, according to an analysis presented at the annual meeting of the A.

Dec 9th, 2019 - BALTIMORE – In a review of 43 temporal lobe epilepsy patients at Yale University in New Haven, Conn. , anteromedial temporal resection (AMTR) failed in every case in which initial ictal rhythm on scalp EEG spread beyond the medial temporal lobe to.

Dec 8th, 2019 - BALTIMORE – Older patients may have better outcomes at 1 year after resective surgery for epilepsy than the general population does, according to research presented at the annual meeting of the American Epilepsy Society. A tendency toward greater.

Mar 20th, 2019 - Removal of at least half of the piriform cortex is required to achieve freedom from seizures in the neurosurgical treatment of temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), new research suggests. A proof-of-concept study conducted by investigators at University C...
