The patient is a 10-month and 21-day-old girl who began to show developmental delays at 3 months of age, with severe language developmental disorders, stereotyped movements, and easily provoked laughter. Physical examination revealed fair skin and a flattened occiput. At 10 months of age, a video electroencephalogram suggested atypical absence seizures, with migrating slow-wave activity observed during the interictal period.

Background And Purpose: Alzheimer's disease (AD) and epileptic seizure are among the most common health problems in the elderly population. This study aimed to estimate the prevalence rate and predictors of seizures in sporadic AD patients.
Methods: The study was conducted by retrospectively for a period of 10 years examining the file records.

Background: Neonatal seizures are common with acute brain injury. Up to 25% of survivors develop postneonatal epilepsy. We hypothesized postneonatal epilepsy diagnosed by age 24 months would increase risk for early markers of neurobehavioral disorders than acute provoked neonatal seizures alone.

The neural mechanisms underlying the natural and maladaptive forgetting of established memory remain largely unknown. Brain disease states might hijack the physiological forgetting mechanisms, resulting in maladaptive forgetting such as accelerated forgetting that contributes to cognitive decline in various neurologic conditions including epilepsy. Based on the key role of the integrated stress response (ISR) in memory storage and maintenance, we determined whether the ISR underpins natural and accelerated forgetting.

Startle epilepsy, characterized by startle-provoked epileptic seizures, was historically recognized as one of the reflex epilepsies but currently lacks classification as a specific epileptic syndrome because of insufficient characterization. This study presents an institutional experience and review of relevant literature focusing on the neurophysiologic and anatomical aspects of startle epilepsy. We describe a pediatric patient with an underlying structural etiology of left frontal encephalomalacia who continued to experience disabling seizures despite multiple antiseizure medications and previous palliative surgery.
