Absence seizures in children and teenagers are generally considered relatively benign
because of their non-convulsive nature and the large incidence of remittance in early …

Network mechanisms relevant for the generation, maintenance and termination of spike-
wave discharges (SWD), the neurophysiological hallmark of absence epilepsy, are still …

The cellular mechanisms underlying typical absence seizures, which characterize various
idiopathic generalized epilepsies, are not fully understood, but impaired γ-aminobutyric acid …

Absence seizures are a common seizure type in children with genetic generalized epilepsy
and are characterized by a temporary loss of awareness, arrest of physical activity, and …

The ultimate goal of epileptology is the complete abolishment of epileptic seizures. This
might be achieved by a system that predicts seizure onset combined with a system that …

Thalamic relay neurons have well-characterized dual firing modes: bursting and tonic
spiking. Studies in brain slices have led to a model in which rhythmic synchronized spiking …

Epileptic activity in the form of spike–wave discharges (SWD) appears in the
electroencephalogram (EEG) during absence seizures. A relationship between SWD and …

While idiopathic generalized epilepsies are thought to evolve from temporal highly
synchronized oscillations between thalamic and cortical networks, their cellular basis …

Absence seizures are a leading form of childhood epilepsy. Human and mouse P/Q-type
calcium channel gene mutations initiate a complex absence epilepsy and ataxia phenotype …

Objective To investigate possible electroencephalography (EEG) correlates of
epileptogenesis after traumatic brain injury (TBI) using the fluid percussion model. Methods …
