Prediction of late seizures after ischaemic stroke with a novel prognostic model (the SeLECT score): a multivariable prediction model development and validation study
Publication date: February 2018 Source:The Lancet Neurology, Volume 17, Issue 2 Author(s): Marian Galovic, Nico Döhler, Barbara Erdélyi-Canavese, Ansgar Felbecker, Philip Siebel, Julian Conrad, Stefan Evers, Michael Winklehner, Tim J von Oertzen, Hans-Peter Haring, Anna Serafini, Giorgia Gregoraci, Mariarosaria Valente, Francesco Janes, Gian Luigi Gigli, Mark R Keezer, John S Duncan, Josemir W Sander, Matthias J Koepp, Barbara Tettenborn Background Stroke is one of the leading causes of acquired epilepsy in adults. An instrument to predict whether people are at high risk of developing post-stroke seizures is not availab...

The chronic and evolving neurological consequences of traumatic brain injury
Publication date: October 2017 Source:The Lancet Neurology, Volume 16, Issue 10 Author(s): Lindsay Wilson, William Stewart, Kristen Dams-O'Connor, Ramon Diaz-Arrastia, Lindsay Horton, David K Menon, Suzanne Polinder Traumatic brain injury (TBI) can have lifelong and dynamic effects on health and wellbeing. Research on the long-term consequences emphasises that, for many patients, TBI should be conceptualised as a chronic health condition. Evidence suggests that functional outcomes after TBI can show improvement or deterioration up to two decades after injury, and rates of all-cause mortality remain elevated for many years...

Music-based interventions in neurological rehabilitation
Publication date: Available online 26 June 2017 Source:The Lancet Neurology Author(s): Aleksi J Sihvonen, Teppo Särkämö, Vera Leo, Mari Tervaniemi, Eckart Altenmüller, Seppo Soinila During the past ten years, an increasing number of controlled studies have assessed the potential rehabilitative effects of music-based interventions, such as music listening, singing, or playing an instrument, in several neurological diseases. Although the number of studies and extent of available evidence is greatest in stroke and dementia, there is also evidence for the effects of music-based interventions on supporting cognition, motor...

Ultra-rare genetic variation in common epilepsies: a case-control sequencing study
Publication date: February 2017 Source:The Lancet Neurology, Volume 16, Issue 2 Author(s): Epi4K consortiumEpilepsy Phenome/Genome Project Background Despite progress in understanding the genetics of rare epilepsies, the more common epilepsies have proven less amenable to traditional gene-discovery analyses. We aimed to assess the contribution of ultra-rare genetic variation to common epilepsies. Methods We did a case-control sequencing study with exome sequence data from unrelated individuals clinically evaluated for one of the two most common epilepsy syndromes: familial genetic generalised epilepsy, or familial or spor...

Impaired consciousness in patients with absence seizures investigated by functional MRI, EEG, and behavioural measures: a cross-sectional study

We aimed to measure functional MRI (fMRI) and electroencephalography (EEG) changes in absence seizu...

Development of epilepsy after ischaemic stroke
Publication date: Available online 17 November 2015 Source:The Lancet Neurology Author(s): Asla Pitkänen, Reina Roivainen, Katarzyna Lukasiuk For about 30% of patients with epilepsy the cause is unknown. Even in patients with a known risk factor for epilepsy, such as ischaemic stroke, only a subpopulation of patients develops epilepsy. Factors that contribute to the risk for epileptogenesis in a given individual generally remain unknown. Studies in the past decade on epilepsy in patients with ischaemic stroke suggest that, in addition to the primary ischaemic injury, existing difficult-to-detect microscale changes in...

Migraine pathophysiology: lessons from mouse models and human genetics
Publication date: January 2015 Source:The Lancet Neurology, Volume 14, Issue 1 Author(s): Michel D Ferrari , Roselin R Klever , Gisela M Terwindt , Cenk Ayata , Arn M J M van den Maagdenberg Summary Migraine is a common, disabling, and undertreated episodic brain disorder that is more common in women than in men. Unbiased genome-wide association studies have identified 13 migraine-associated variants pointing at genes that cluster in pathways for glutamatergic neurotransmission, synaptic function, pain sensing, metalloproteinases, and the vasculature. The individual pathogenetic contribution of each gene variant is diffi...
