The prevailing understanding of generalized epilepsy is shaped by the traditional definition
that “the responsible neuronal discharge takes place, if not throughout the entire grey matter …

Longitudinal studies of newly diagnosed epilepsy in children and adults have identified
prognostic factors that allow early identification of patients whose seizures are likely to …

Objectives: Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) is the most common idiopathic generalized
epilepsy subsyndrome, contributing to approximately 3% to 11% of adolescent and adult …

Prognosis describes the trajectory and long‐term outcome of a condition. Most studies
indicate a better prognosis in idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE) in comparison with other …

In consequence of newer research juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) is no longer seen as a
homogeneous disease. The causes of the existing variance are only partially known yet. We …

Purpose Since its initial 1957 description, juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) has been

poorly characterized idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE) syndrome. Hence, we …

This study aimed at defining clinical predictors of drug resistance in adults with genetic
generalized epilepsy (GGE) who were treated with a broad spectrum of antiepileptic drugs …

Introduction Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) is a genetic generalized epilepsy syndrome.
Under appropriate antiepileptic drugs (AED) up to 85% of patients become seizure-free, but …

The definition of reflex epileptic seizures is that specific seizure types can be triggered by
certain sensory or cognitive stimuli. Simple triggers are sensory (most often visual, more …
