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

Epilepsy: new advances

TL;DR: The lives of most people with epilepsy continue to be adversely affected by gaps in knowledge, diagnosis, treatment, advocacy, education, legislation, and research and Concerted actions to address these challenges are urgently needed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy: current knowledge and future directions.

TL;DR: Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy rates, risk factors, triggers, and proposed mechanisms are reviewed, and potential preventive strategies are critically assessed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Representation of Pain and Somatic Sensation in the Human Insula: a Study of Responses to Direct Electrical Cortical Stimulation

TL;DR: It is found that painful and non-painful somaesthetic representations in the human insula overlap, and lateralization in the right hemisphere of sites where painful sensations were evoked is coherent with the hypothesis of a preponderant role of this hemisphere in species survival.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A unified SUDEP definition and classification is proposed to resolve current ambiguities and to retrieve cases that would not have been further studied if the previous definitions were used.
