Clinical features and outcomes of late-onset epilepsy of unknown etiology: A retrospective study in West China.
Epilepsy Behav
January 2025
Department of Neurology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan, China. Electronic address:
Purpose: Late-onset epilepsy (LOE) usually refers to the development of epilepsy at the age of 50 years or older. Approximately 20 % of LOE cases are diagnosed as late-onset epilepsy of unknown etiology (LOUE) due to a lack of an identifiable cause. The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical features, seizure and cognitive outcomes of patients with LOUE in West China.

Ann Intensive Care
January 2025
Medical Intensive Care Unit, AP-HP Centre Université Paris Cité, Cochin hospital, 27 rue du Faubourg Saint Jacques, Paris, 7501, France.
Background: After cardiac arrest (CA), the European recommendations suggest to use a neuron-specific enolase (NSE) level > 60 µg/L at 48-72 h to predict poor outcome. However, the prognostic performance of NSE can vary depending on electroencephalogram (EEG). The objective was to determine whether the NSE threshold which predicts poor outcome varies according to EEG patterns and the effect of electrographic seizures on NSE level.

Department of Clinical Neuroelectrophysiology, Wuhan Children's Hospital of Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, China. Electronic address:
Objective: There are fewer reports on the ictal electroencephalogram(EEG) of convulsions in infants and children with mild gastroenteritis (BCWG). Our study retrospectively analyzed the ictal EEG characteristics of convulsive episodes of BCWG.
Methods: The seizure-phase EEGs of children diagnosed with BCWG from September 2016 to January 2022 were searched and analyzed, and a total of thirteen seizure-phase EEGs of eight cases were analyzed retrospectively.
Electroencephalography (EEG) for Neurological Prognostication in Post-Anoxic Coma Following Cardiac Arrest and Its Relationship to Outcome.
Brain Sci
December 2024
Department of Medicine, Division of Neurology, Queen's University, Kingston, ON K7L 3N6, Canada.
Background/objectives: Cardiac arrest may cause significant hypoxic-ischemic injury leading to coma, seizures, myoclonic jerks, or status epilepticus. Mortality is high, but accurate prognostication is challenging. A multimodal approach is employed, in which electroencephalography (EEG) forms a key part with several recognised patterns of prognostic significance.

Clin Neurol Neurosurg
December 2024
Pediatric Unit, Department of Medical and Surgical Sciences of Mothers, Children and Adults, University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, Modena 41121, Italy. Electronic address:
Typical absence seizures represent a distinctive form of epileptic activity typically observed in pediatric populations, predominantly manifesting between the ages of 4 and 10, constituting Childhood Absence Epilepsy (CAE). However, a subset of patients presents with Early-onset Absence Epilepsy (EOAE), characterized by seizure onset before the fourth year of life, often displaying favorable outcomes with antiseizure medication. Conversely, atypical absence seizures exhibit prolonged duration and frequently entail tonic, atonic, or myoclonic motor elements, suggesting a more severe clinical course, commonly associated with epileptic encephalopathies of childhood onset.
