    Sammanfattning : Epilepsy is a neurological disorder, affecting approximately 1% of the population. The high rate of drug-resistance in epilepsy in general (30%), and temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) in particular, pose a serious clinical problem. Thus, novel treatments for drug-resistant epilepsy is highly warranted. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : The prevalence of epilepsy in persons with multiple sclerosis (MS) is thrice that of the general population. The association between epilepsy and MS prognosis and its management are however largely unknown. The prevalence of concomitant MS and epilepsy is low, making recruitment of sufficient numbers of patients for single-centre studies difficult. LÄS MER
