To get insight into the mechanisms that may lead to progression of temporal lobe epilepsy,
we investigated gene expression during epileptogenesis in the rat. RNA was obtained from …

Recent animal experiments indicate a critical role for opening of the blood‐brain barrier
(BBB) in the pathogenesis of post‐traumatic epilepsy (PTE). This study aimed to investigate …

Background: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is an important cause of focal epilepsy. Animal
experiments indicate that disruption of the blood–brain barrier (BBB) plays a critical role in …

Here we investigated the incidence of cortical spreading depolarizations (spreading
depression and peri-infarct depolarization) after traumatic brain injury (TBI) and their …

In focal cerebral ischemia, peri-infarct depolarizations (PIDs) cause an expansion of core-
infarcted tissue into adjacent penumbral regions of reversible injury and have been shown …

The extent that status epilepticus (SE), but also brief seizures, affects neuronal structure and
function has been the subject of much clinical and experimental research. There is a …

Brain waves resonate from the generators of electrical current and propagate across brain
regions with oscillation frequencies ranging from 0.05 to 500 Hz. The commonly observed …

Penetrating brain injury (PBI) is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity in modern warfare
and accounts for a significant number of traumatic brain injuries worldwide. Here we …

Cerebrovascular disease is the leading cause of epilepsy in adults, although post-stroke
seizures reported frequency is variable and few studies used EEG in their identification. To …

The elderly, often defined as those 65 years or older, are the most rapidly growing segment
of the population, and onset of epilepsy is higher in this age group than in any other. This …
