Background And Purpose:
Haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is one of the most effective treatment methods for many malignant and non-malignant diseases. In this study, we aimed to detect electroencephalographic (EEG) anomalies at an early stage in patients who underwent allogeneic and autologous HSCT and required the management of potentially life-threatening non-convulsive seizures.

Objective: Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder affecting both the patients and the caregivers psychologically. Caregivers of these patients might have to face several challenges throughout the course of the disease. This study examines the correlations between the separation anxiety and depression of caregivers of adult and child epileptic patients according to their relation to the patients (parent vs.

Objective: Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is an important curative treatment option for many hematologic diseases. Sleep disorders in patients with HSCT are a significant but often overlooked health problem. Therefore, this study aims to determine the frequency of sleep disorders in HSCT patients and to compare and evaluate the data before and after transplantation between autologous and allogeneic HSCT patient groups.

- Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is a significant issue that can lead to increased accidents and fatalities, and it affects both personal and societal well-being.
- A study involving 218 participants explored the relationship between specific genetic markers (PER3-VNTR, 5-HTT-LPR, and 5-HTT-VNTR) and EDS, using the Epworth Sleepiness Scale to measure sleepiness levels.
- Results showed no association between PER3-VNTR and 5-HTT-LPR genotypes with EDS, but a significant connection was found with the 5-HTT-VNTR genotype, where individuals with the 10/10 genotype scored highest on the sleepiness scale
Sleep disorders are highly prevalent in the population and have dramatic health, social, and economic impacts. However, their treatments may remain symptomatic due to ignorance of molecular factors which may provide fundamental insights into the neurological bases of sleep. Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is a common complaint encountered in neurological practice with significant effects both on individuals and on society.

We aimed to understand the abnormal networks related to the excitability of masticatory pathways in patients with SB. Eleven patients with SB and age- and gender-matched 20 healthy subjects were prospectively enrolled in our study.
