ContextMultiple studies have reported an overgrowth in head circumference (HC) in the first year of life in autism. However, it is unclear whether this
Epilepsy is a chronic disorder. The prognosis of one particular subtype, that of children with generalized spike and wave discharges (P-O) on the electroencephalogram (EEG), is unknown. OBJECTIVE. To determine the prognosis of children with epilepsy with P-O on EEG and the factors which ...

there may be new opportunities to better treat pharmaco-resistant generalized epilepsy through thalamic modulation and dietary therapy.[27]Small studies have also shown that children with IGE have abnormal baseline cerebral blood flow compared to children without IGE, which may be another potential thera...
Pathogenic variants inSLC2A1, which encodes glucose transporter type 1 (GLUT1), are present in 10% of children with absence epilepsy that has onset before age 4 years; genetic testing should be considered for all children this young with primarily absence seizures.20Chromosomal microarray may also...
They have been observed in 2-5% of children before the age of 5, but in some populations this figure may increase to 15%. It is a common cause of pediatric hospital admissions and cause of anxiety for parents. Febrile seizures could be the first manifestation of epilepsy. About 13% of ...
Other generalized syndromes typical of childhood such as epilepsy with myoclonic–astatic seizures (EMAS) and epilepsy with myoclonic absences (EMA) were considered at the time to be cryptogenic or symptomatic, due to their less favorable outcome and to the presence of cognitive impairment in some...
Epilepsy is associated with genetic risk factors and cortico-subcortical network alterations, but associations between neurobiological mechanisms and macroscale connectomics remain unclear. This multisite ENIGMA-Epilepsy study examined whole-brain struct
