TL;DR: Differences in the timing and topographical features of the ERD responses in the various frequency bands suggest a distinct functional significance for the various spectral components of the electrical activity in the motor cortex.

TL;DR: The hypothesis that periodic limb movements (PLMs) in RLS and FRs share common spinal mechanisms is supported and PLMs may result from enhanced spinal cord excitability inRLS patients is suggested, consistent with the current view that RLS is a disorder of dopaminergic function.

TL;DR: In this article, the deficiency of a copper enzyme, dopamine-β-hydroxylase, was exploited to evaluate the diagnostic usefulness of plasma neurochemical levels, assessed the clinical effect of early detection, and investigated the molecular bases for treatment outcomes.

TL;DR: The clinical phenomena suggest that multiple cortical and subcortical routes of spread may exist and that when GTCSs last longer than 2 minutes, intravenous antiepileptic drug treatment should be initiated.

TL;DR: Positron emission tomography with simultaneous electroencephalographic monitoring was performed with {18F}fluorodeoxyglucose in 20 patients with complex partial seizures who had normal computed tomographic scans, finding a tendency for patients to have higher overall metabolic rates when taking less medication.
