    Sammanfattning : Rolandic epilepsy (RE) is the most common focal epilepsy syndrome in the pediatric age group with an onset between 3 and 13 years. The syndrome is defined by electro-clinically typical features and has been considered benign according to seizure remission before the age of 16 years. LÄS MER

  3. 2. 10-year Outcome of Childhood Epilepsy in Well-functioning Children and Adolescents

    Författare :Pysse Jonsson; Margareta Dahl; Orvar Eeg-Olofsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Childhood epilepsy; adolescent epilepsy; well-functioning individuals; prognosis; syndromes; family history; internalizing and externalizing problems; ASEBA;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction: Epilepsy is one of the most common neurologic disorders in children and young adults. The prognosis depends on various conditions but the long-term prognosis regarding seizure freedom is positive in the majority of the children. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Effects of Vagus Nerve Stimulation and Ketogenic Diet on Quality of Life and Changes in EEG and Sleep

    Författare :Tove Hallböök; Lund Pediatrik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; vagus nerve stimulation; neuropsykologi; Neurologi; neurophysiology; neuropsychology; Neurology; Medicin människa och djur ; Medicine human and vertebrates ; behaviour; attention; ketogenic diet; delta power; slow wave sleep; REM; mood; sleep; quality of life; EEG; seizure frequency; spike detection; children; neurofysiologi; Pediatri; epilepsy; Pediatrics;

    Sammanfattning : When anti-epileptic drugs fail, and epilepsy surgery is found unfeasible or ineffective, there remains a group of at least 25% of children with epilepsy in whom seizure control cannot be achieved. Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is an adjunctive treatment for medically refractory epilepsy. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Speech and language dysfunction in childhood epilepsy and epileptiform EEG activity

    Författare :Gunilla Rejnö-Habte Selassie; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :auditory ability; cognition; co-morbidity; epilepsy; epileptiform activity; follow-up; Landau Kleffner syndrome; language disorder; neurodevelopmental dysfunction; speech disorder;

    Sammanfattning : In severe childhood language disorder, concomitant dysfunction in other areas may be present. There are indications that epileptiform EEG activity and epilepsy may influence speech and language development, but this relationship is poorly understood. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Surgical and neurological adverse effects of epilepsy surgery

    Författare :Johan Bjellvi; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; epilepsy surgery; invasive electrode procedures; intracranial EEG; complications; adverse events; risk; seizure worsening; multicenter study; register study; SNESUR;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to study surgical and neurological complications of preoperative invasive investigations and epilepsy surgery procedures (Papers I-II) and seizure worsening after epilepsy surgery (Paper III). A further aim was to improve reporting of adverse effects related to invasive investigations and epilepsy surgery by proposing and evaluating an evidence-based protocol for monitoring complications (Paper IV).
