Emergency room diagnoses of psychogenic nonepileptic seizures with psychogenic status and functional (psychogenic) symptoms: Whopping
Publication date: March 2020Source: Epilepsy & Behavior, Volume 104, Part AAuthor(s): Helene Kholi, Laurent VercueilAbstractCollecting 130 electronic medical records and diagnoses from emergency room stays of eleven patients with confirmed psychogenic nonepileptic seizure (PNES) over a 17-year period (2001–2018), 48 different diagnostic terms were retrieved. This emphasized the need for a consensual terminology encompassing not only PNES but also all functional transient (paroxysmal) events, including episodes of motor or sensory deficits, and cognitive symptoms. Rather than defining what it is not (PNES, stroke mimicks...

Reperfusion therapies and poststroke seizures
Publication date: Available online 11 November 2019Source: Epilepsy & BehaviorAuthor(s): Carla Bentes, Francesco Brigo, Johan Zelano, José M. FerroAbstractSeizures are not only a frequent complication of stroke but have been associated with an unfavorable functional and vital outcome of patients who have had stroke. Facing a new paradigm of acute standard stroke care, acute symptomatic seizures in this clinical setting deserve to be rethought.Reperfusion therapies, the gold standard treatment for acute ischemic stroke, improve long-term survival and outcome of patients who have had stroke and have been associated both wit...

Correlation of blood biomarkers with early-onset seizures after an acute stroke event
ConclusionHigher NCAM and lower TNF-R1 levels may help predict the occurrence of early seizures. The combined use of these biomarkers and clinical variables could be useful for identifying patients at risk of seizures.“This article is part of the Special Issue “Seizures & Stroke”

Younger age at stroke onset but not thrombolytic treatment predicts poststroke epilepsy: An updated meta-analysis
ConclusionDespite limitations due to the uneven quality and design of the studies, the present meta-analysis confirms that cortical involvement, hemorrhagic component, and ES are associated with a higher risk of PSE. In this update, younger age at stroke onset but not thrombolytic treatment seems to increase the risk for PSE.This article is part of the Special Issue “Seizures & Stroke”.

Clinical profile and comparison of scoring tools for the prediction of in-hospital mortality in convulsive status epilepticus in elderly
ConclusionsMost frequent cause of CSE in elderly in our series was stroke and was also associated with high mortality. For the prediction of in-hospital mortality in elderly, EMSE-EAL-40 score is superior to STESS-3, which can be easily applied in resource-poor sectors with limited diagnostic facilities especially where continuous video-electroencephalogram (EEG) monitoring is unavailable.

Acute symptomatic seizures and epilepsy after mechanical thrombectomy
ConclusionsThe incidence of PSE after mechanical thrombectomy was low in our cohort. All blood biomarkers displayed interesting sensitivity and specificity. However, the number of PSE cases was small and more studies are needed on risk factors for PSE after mechanical thrombectomy. The potential of blood markers of brain injury markers to contribute to assessment of PSE risk should be explored further.This article is part of the Special Issue "Seizures & Stroke".

Medication use in poststroke epilepsy: A descriptive study on switching of antiepileptic drug treatment
ConclusionIn our case series, up to 40% of patients with epilepsy after stroke needed to switch their first prescribed AED, mostly because of side effects in lower dosage ranges.

Cognition and quality of life in patients with poststroke epilepsy: A case–control study
ConclusionsWe found that PSE relates to impaired cognitive functioning, a lower disease-specific quality of life and more disability and neurological impairment. This underlines the importance of further clinical research in this field.This article is part of the Special Issue “Seizures & Stroke”

Incidence of early poststroke seizures during reperfusion therapies in patients with acute ischemic stroke: An observational prospective study: (TESI study: “Trombolisi/Trombectomia e crisi Epilettiche precoci nello Stroke Ischemico”)
ConclusionThe incidence of early poststroke seizures was overall rare, and no significant differences emerged between patients receiving and those not receiving reperfusion therapies.This article is part of the Special Issue “Seizures and Stroke”.
