In this paper we propose a novel segmentation method based on the relative frequency contributions of ictal multichannel ECoG data. Segments with predominant [[see text]]-activity are classified as epileptic. The seizure onset zone is determined by the temporal delay of the epileptic [[see text]]-activity (4-9Hz) on the different channels. We apply this methodology to three seizures of one patient suffering from focal epilepsy. The resulting segments reflect the visual characteristics of the ictal ECoG well. The seizure onset zone identified by the proposed method is in very good accordance with the clinical findings.

Febrile infection-related epilepsy syndrome (FIRES) is a rare clinical presentation of refractory status epilepticus following a febrile infection. This study analyzes data from the NORSE/FIRES Family Registry, an international web-based registry available in six languages with data entered by patients, families, and clinicians to explore clinical presentations, survivorship, and long-term outcomes in adult and pediatric FIRES patients. We characterize and examine differences in demographics, prodromal symptoms, seizure frequency, anti-seizure medications (ASMs), quality of life, cognition, mood, and anxiety in adults vs pediatric populations with FIRES.

From the Department of Pediatrics Division of Pediatric Emergency Medicine, Nemours Children's Health, Wilmington, Del.
Introduction: Pediatric seizures account for approximately 1% of emergency department (ED) presentations. Laboratory evaluation and emergent electroencephalogram (EEG) are not indicated in patients with a new-onset, unprovoked, afebrile seizure with a normal physical examination. This study aimed to reduce unnecessary ED resource utilization.

Background: Myoclonus is a hyperkinetic movement with various attributable etiologies, semiologies, and treatment outcomes. To our knowledge, few studies investigated adult-onset myoclonus in an inpatient setting.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed charts of adult inpatients with myoclonus at New York Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital between 2011 and 2021.
Fat droplets in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) spaces of the brain.

It is rare to find free floating fat droplets in the cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) spaces of the brain. When fat droplets are seen in the CSF spaces, the most common cause is the rupture of a dermoid cyst. Dermoid cysts are congenital inclusion cysts that form during the neural tube closure between the third and fifth weeks of embryogenesis.
