Apr 23rd, 2022 - Psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNES) are a common condition seen in children and adolescents. The diagnosis is clinical, based on a description of events, and can be supported using video electroencephalography recording. Children and adolesce...

Apr 17th, 2022 - Patients with psychogenic non-epileptic seizures (PNES) experience significant morbidity and early mortality, secondary to delayed diagnosis. Better characterizing risk factors and exploring how PNES differentially affects sex and racial strata ma...

Apr 5th, 2022 - Numerous Veterans and civilians have seizures, which can be epileptic or nonepileptic in nature. Epileptic seizures are caused by abnormal brain cell firing. Nonepileptic seizures appear similar to epileptic seizures, but are associated with traum...
