1. Clinical profile of tuberous sclerosis complex patients with and without epilepsy: a need for awareness for early diagnosis
Resumo Antecedentes O Complexo da esclerose tuberosa (CET) é uma doença multissistêmica. As apresentações clínicas em diferentes órgãos são diversas, necessitando um maior conhecimento da doença. Objetivo O objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar na CET o envolvimento neurológico, como lesões cerebrais e epilepsia, e chamar a atenção para ach

2. Aspects of Oral Language, Speech, and Written Language in Subjects with Temporal Lobe Epilepsy of Difficult Control
Introduction About 50 million people have epilepsy and 30% of them have epilepsy that does not respond to properly conducted drug treatment. Objective Verify the incidence of language disorders in oral language, speech, and written language of subjects with difficult to control temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) and compare the occurrence of these disorders in

3. Investigacao do uso da analise de textura de imagens de ressonancia magnetica como ferramenta de auxilio na caracterizacao das epilepsias refratarias
In refractory epilepsies, therapies that use two or more antiepileptic drugs do not result in the control of the crises. The patients can present diffuse or focal cortical dysplasia (FCDs) and/or hippocampus atrophic changes that, in some cases, are not detectable by a simple visual analysis of the magnetic resonace (MR) images. In this context, the objectiv

4. Eletroencefalograma na neuroemergência : impacto na avaliação de pacientes com alteração do estado de consciência e em pacientes na fase a hiperaguda do AVC = Electroencephalogram in neuroemergency : impact in the evaluation of patients with impairment of consciousness and patients in the hyperacute phase of stroke / Electroencephalogram in neuroemergency : impact in the evaluation of patients with impairment of consciousness and patients in the hyperacute phase of stroke
Title: Electroencephalogram in the Neuroemergency: Impact on evaluation of patients with impairment of consciousness and patients on hyperacute phase of stroke Introduction: The EEG is an inexpensive tool, but not available during out of business hours in most emergency departments. Our work was divided into two chapters: Impact of EEG in the diagnosis and m

5. Correlação entre atrofia hipocampal e déficit de memória em pacientes com epilepsia de lobo temporal mesial / Correlation between hippocampal atrophy and memory deficits in patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy
Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (MTLE) is the most common focal epilepsy in adults and is usually associated with hippocampal atrophy (HA) which is recognized by highresolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). It consists of a syndrome that is often refractory to clinical treatment and patients may have memory deficits due to hippocampal system damage, howeve

6. Estudo da associação entre atrofia de estruturas limbicas, depressão e epilepsia de lobo temporal mesial / Study of association between atrophy of limbic structures, depression and mesial temporal lobe epilepsy
Depression has been one of the most commonly related mental disorders associated with MTLE, reaching approximately 20% to 55% of the cases, whereas its prevalence is 9% in the general population. Since the aspects that interact in the association MTLE-depression are still quite fragmented, the physiopathology of depression in MTLE is not fully understood. Th

7. Em busca da região epileptiforme em pacientes com epilepsia do lobo temporal: métodos alternativos baseados em fMRI e EEG-fMRI / Searching for epileptiform region in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy: alternative methods based on fMRI and EEG-fMRI
Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is the most common and resistant form of epilepsy to anti-epileptic drug. There are several types of anti-epileptic drugs used in seizure control. However, in some cases drug treatment is not effective and surgery to remove the epileptogenic zone (EZ) is a recommended alternative. EZ is a theoretical concept and there are many te

8. Multiaxis diagnosis and psychopathological evaluation of psychotic disorders associated with epilepsy / Diagnóstico multiaxial e avaliação psicopatológica das psicoses associadas à epilepsia
The association between epilepsy and psychotic disorders has been well documented in literature. Although this association is well-known, few studies regarding psychosis and epilepsy investigated the clinical characteristics of these patients and its impact on psychosocial function, suicide and suicide attempts, homicide attempts and cognitive deficits. The

9. Transtorno de déficit de atenção/hiperatividade e epilepsia: eficácia e segurança do metilfenidato em crianças e adolescentes com crises epilépticas não controladas / Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder and epilepsy: efficacy and safety of the methylphenidate in children and adolescents with uncontrolled epilepsy
INTRODUCTION: Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is observed in 30 to 40 % children and adolescents with epilepsy. Recent studies demonstrate the safety of methylphenidate (MPH) in patients with controlled epilepsy. There is a lack of studies of patients with uncontrolled epilepsy. OBJECTIVE: to study the efficacy and safety of MPH in childr

10. Uma visão histórico-crítica do conceito de crise não-epiléptica psicogênica / An historical-critical approach to the psychogenic non-epileptic seizure concept
Psychogenic non-epileptic seizures are recurrent crisis, or attacks, or paroxysmal behavioral changes that can be misunderstood as epileptic seizure due to the behavioral similarity between both, however, these manifestations are not associated with abnormal electrical brain discharges that cause epileptic seizures. Non-epileptic seizures are classified into

11. Biochemical diagnosis of creatine deficiency syndromes / Diagnóstico bioquímico das síndromes de deficiência de creatina
Recently, a new group of inborn errors of metabolism, collectively named as creatine deficiency syndrome, was identified. Three genetically determined presentations are currently known, affecting both creatine synthesis and transport. Clinical presentation spectrum is non-specific and includes developmental delay, hypotonia, involuntary movements as choreoat

12. O SPECT no diagnóstico diferencial entre crise epiléptica e crise não epiléptica psicogênica / The SPECT in the differential diagnosis between epileptic and nonepileptic seizures
O presente estudo comparou o fluxo sanguíneo cerebral regional avaliado através da tomografia por emissão de fóton simples (SPECT) de pacientes com crises epilépticas temporais com pacientes com crises não epilépticas psicogênicas (CNEP). Todos os SPECT foram realizado no período ictal, tendo as CNEP sido induzidas por métodos sugestivos e de hipno
