This narrative review provides a broad and comprehensive overview of the most important
discoveries on the postictal state over the past decades as well as recent developments …

Todd's paralysis, a neurological abnormality characterized by temporary limb weakness or
hemiplegia, typically occurs following a seizure, without enduring consequences. Since limb …

Objectives Glial cell activation contributes to the inflammatory response and occurrence of
epilepsy. Our preliminary study demonstrated that the long non‐coding RNA, H19, promotes …

Seizures can result in a severe hypoperfusion/hypoxic attack that causes postictal memory
and behavioral impairments. However, neither postictal changes to microvasculature nor Ca …

Epilepsy is often associated with emotional disturbances and the endocannabinoid (eCB)
system tunes synaptic transmission in brain regions regulating emotional behavior. Thus …

Objective Since the strongest risk factor for sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP)
is frequent bilateral tonic-clonic seizures (BTCS), our aim was to determine whether postictal …

Long-lasting confusion and memory difficulties during the postictal state remain a major
unmet problem in epilepsy that lacks pathophysiological explanation and treatment. We …

Epilepsy is one of the most common chronic neurological conditions. Today, close to 30
different medications to prevent epileptic seizures are in use; yet, far from all patients …

Objective Brain tissue oxygen (partial oxygen pressure [pO2]) levels are tightly regulated to
stay within the normoxic zone, with deviations on either side resulting in impaired brain …

Objective Vascular structures may play a significant role in epileptic pathology. Although
previous attempts to characterize vasculature relative to epileptogenic zones and …
