The TeNT model of occipital cortical epilepsy is a model of acquired focal neocortical epilepsy that is well-suited for preclinical evaluation of novel anti-epileptic strategies and a predictive framework that can be used to reduce variation and consequently animal use in preclinical studies of potential treatments.
Semiology, clustering, periodicity and natural history of seizures in an experimental visual cortical epilepsy model
- Psychology, BiologybioRxiv

A detailed analysis of the epilepsy phenotype, seizure activity, electrographic features, and the semiology is provided to provide a predictive framework that can be used to reduce variation and consequently animal use in pre-clinical studies of potential treatments.

These observations bolster the new ILAE definition of generalized seizures, suggesting that some so-called generalized seizures are not truly generalized but that they instead rapidly engage bilaterally distributed networks with clear asymmetries of scalp electrical discharges.

Her symptoms improved, and interictal epileptic discharges extremely decreased, and this case was discussed as an important case for diagnosis of NCSE with subtle symptom of dizziness.

A large number of patients suffer from absences late into adulthood, which are often refractory to antiepileptic drugs, and need to be carefully distinguished from later aggravation or semiological transformation of undiagnosed childhood epilepsies and from certain complex focal seizures originating from the frontal or temporal lobe.

Electroclinical evolution in 14 patients with TA and OIRDA with onset before 10 years, pyknolepsy as common finding and few GTCS is observed and it is suggested that OIRda could be considered good prognostic factor in TA associated with SWC and of epileptiform nature leading to appropriate investigation.

Thalamic activation in typical, untreated childhood absence epilepsy is demonstrated, and the cortical signal change may be related to a thalamo-cortical circuit.

The "cortical focus" theory for generalized absence epilepsy bridges cortical and thalamic theories and shows a consistent focus within the perioral region of the somatosensory cortex.

The cognitive and behavioral aspects of these patients suggest an involvement of frontal lobes, and patients with IGEs appear to lack a degree of self‐control, to neglect their physical needs, and are poorly compliant with therapy.
