ALLMedicine™ Temporal Lobe Epilepsy Center

Oct 3rd, 2022 - To describe and assess the significance of EEG characteristics recorded during presurgical video-EEG monitoring (VEM) utilizing foramen ovale (FO) and epidural peg electrodes. Seizure onset (SOP) and termination pattern morphology and regions, ips...

Oct 3rd, 2022 - GABAergic interneurons play a role in regulating adult neurogenesis within the dentate gyrus (DG) of the hippocampus. Neurogenesis occurs within a stem cell niche in the subgranular zone (SGZ) of the DG. In this niche, populations of neural progen...

Oct 1st, 2022 - Temporal lobe epilepsy often manifests months or even years after an initial epileptogenic insult (e.g., stroke, trauma, status epilepticus) and, therefore, may be preventable. However, no such preventive treatment is currently available. Aim of t...

Sep 30th, 2022 - Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is one of the most common subtypes of focal epilepsy, with mesial temporal sclerosis (MTS) being a common radiological and histopathological finding. Accurate identification of MTS during presurgical evaluation confers...

Sep 29th, 2022 - Several reports suggest that epigenetic therapy may be a potential method for treating epilepsy, and circular RNAs (circRNAs) play important roles in mediating the epigenetic mechanisms associated with epilepsy; however, currently there are no eff...

Sep 27th, 2022 - Subjects will undergo a single stereotactic intracerebral administration of neural cells, called interneurons, that secrete the inhibitory neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). Subjects will then take medicines to partially suppress the...

Sep 23rd, 2022 - All patients in Norway who have undergone temporal lobe epilepsy surgery ten years ago or more, will be invited to participate. Two groups will be compared: patients who are younger than 50 years of age vs patients who are older than 50 years of a...

Sep 21st, 2022 - Objective This protocol is being performed collect prospective data on patients who receive standard care therapy for drug resistant epilepsy and to follow the therapeutic course of patients from pre-operative evaluation, through surgery, and post...

Aug 30th, 2022 - Despite recent advances in neuroimaging, approximately 2/3 of intractable epilepsy patients that undergo surgical evaluation continue to require intracranial EEG (IEEG), arguably the most invasive diagnostic test in medicine. Clinicians currently ...

Aug 25th, 2022 - The purpose of this research is to examine the physiologic underpinnings of deep brain stimulation of the anterior nucleus of the thalamus (ANT), a method reducing seizures in adults diagnosed with medically refractory epilepsy. In this study, the...

Feb 12th, 2020 - BALTIMORE – Among patients with medial temporal lobe epilepsy, functional outcomes of stereotactic laser amygdalohippocampotomy (SLAH) are superior to those of open resection, according to data presented at the annual meeting of the American Epile.

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.

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.
