De novo mutations in epileptic encephalopathies

Andrew S. Allen, +72 more
- 12 Sep 2013 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a screen for de novo mutations in patients with two classical epileptic encephalopathies: infantile spasms and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (n = 115) was performed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultra-rare genetic variation in common epilepsies: a case-control sequencing study.

TL;DR: Excess ultra-rare variation in known epilepsy genes is identified, which establishes a clear connection between the genetics of common and rare, severe epilepsies, and shows that the variants responsible for epilepsy risk are exceptionally rare in the general population.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of Morbidity and Outcomes Associated With Use of Subdural Grids vs Stereoelectroencephalography in Patients With Intractable Epilepsy.

TL;DR: This direct comparison of large matched cohorts undergoing SEEG and SDE implantation reveals distinctly better procedural morbidity favoring SEEG, with SEEG being more versatile and applicable to a range of scenarios, including nonlesional and bilateral cases, than SDE.
Journal ArticleDOI

Copy number variant analysis from exome data in 349 patients with epileptic encephalopathy

TL;DR: Exome sequence data is used to identify putative de novo CNVs in 349 trios with IS or LGS and highlight novel candidate genes for IS and LGS.
