Medial temporal lobectomy is effective in improving seizure outcomes among patients with drug-resistant temporal lobe epilepsy.

A study published in Brain Communications highlights a new approach to treating drug-resistant epilepsy. Researchers at Mayo ...

“This rare form of seizure is typically associated with abnormal activity in the brain’s frontal lobe, particularly the supplementary motor area, which is responsible for controlling motor function ...

The uncontrolled thrashing raises their chances of getting hurt. Focal seizures are different; they start in one area on one side of the brain, so they may be less intense and usually last no more ...

Ictal asystole was the most frequently reported pattern. Ictal asystole, ictal bradycardia and ictal AV block predominantly occurred during focal dyscognitive seizures in people with temporal lobe ...

Objective We sought to augment the presurgical workup of medically refractory temporal lobe epilepsy by creating a supervised machine learning technique that uses diffusion-weighted imaging to ...

Introduction This study aims to validate the Seizure-Related Impact Assessment Scale (SERIAS). This novel patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) compares the ‘trade-off’ between seizures and ...

Some people have both generalised and focal seizures. The brain has two halves called hemispheres. Each half has four parts called lobes: the frontal, temporal, parietal, and occipital lobes.

Temporal lobe attention deficit disorder (ADD) is not a recognized medical condition. Some doctors and clinics claim that it is one of seven subtypes of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder ...

Seizures can last from a few seconds to several minutes. They may start in one part of the brain (focal seizure) or affect both sides from the beginning (generalized seizure). Some seizures stay in ...
