Journal ArticleDOI

Incidence and mechanisms of cardiorespiratory arrests in epilepsy monitoring units (MORTEMUS): A retrospective study

TL;DR: Cardiorespiratory data showed a consistent and previously unrecognised pattern whereby rapid breathing developed after secondary generalised tonic-clonic seizure, followed within 3 min by transient or terminal cardiore Spiratory dysfunction, probably aggravated by suboptimum supervision and possibly by antiepileptic drug withdrawal.
Journal ArticleDOI

Magnetocephalography: a noninvasive alternative to the Wada procedure

TL;DR: Although the availability of MEG is still limited across epilepsy surgery centers, this study method may be substituted for the Wada procedure in assessing hemispheric dominance for language in select cases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Health-related quality of life (HRQOL), activity of daily living (ADL) and depressive mood disorder in temporal lobe epilepsy patients.

TL;DR: Depression score was found to be a powerful predictor of self-reported quality of life after adjusting for seizure-related variables, demographic variables and cognitive functioning (IQ), and the only scale showing a significant laterality effect was ADL-home.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neuromagnetic recordings in temporal lobe epilepsy.

TL;DR: Whole-head MEG can be regarded as a valuable and clinically relevant noninvasive method for the evaluation of patients with temporal lobe epilepsy and seems to be more sensitive than scalp-EEG which further underlines the potential role of MEG for the study of nonlesional TLE.
