Seizures can be predicted more than 30 minutes before onset in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy, opening the door to a therapy using electrodes that could be activated to prevent seizures from ...

Boosting KCC2 function reduced seizures and abnormal brain activity in temporal lobe epilepsy models. Learn how this strategy could aid drug-resistant epilepsy.

Temporal lobe resection, also called temporal lobectomy, is a surgery that can lower the number of seizures you have, make them less severe, or even stop them from happening. During the operation, the ...

The present study was designed to evaluate the genetic mechanisms in patients with focal epileptiform discharges in the mid-temporal or central regions, an electroencephalographic abnormality of high ...

In temporal lobe epilepsy — a common and debilitating form of the disorder — seizures often cause those affected to lose consciousness. But why that happens has been unclear. In a new study, Yale ...

The prognostic value of exact location of hypometabolism measured by PET within the temporal lobe is still debating. Some studies suggested that patients with mesial temporal hypometabolism on PET ...

A team of researchers from the Florida State University College of Medicine has found that an amino acid produced by the brain could play a crucial role in preventing a type of epileptic seizure.
