Cognitive characteristics of children treated for deformational plagiocephaly and parental perception of the therapy.

Background: Deformational plagiocephaly (DP) is a common acquired skull deformity, with the highest incidence at the age of 4 months (19.7%). As it is considered benign, good cosmetic outcome is the primary aim of treatment, which includes either repositioning therapy (RT) with or without physiotherapy or molding helmet therapy (MHT).

Status epilepticus in patients with genetic (idiopathic) generalized epilepsy.

Aim Of The Study: Genetic (idiopathic) generalized epilepsies (GGEs) account for nearly one-third of all epilepsies. The frequency of status epilepticus (SE) in patients with GGEs has been poorly studied. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the frequency of different forms of SE in a cohort of patients with GGEs.
