13. Estudo sobre história de trauma e eventos dissociativos em pacientes com crises não-epilépticas psicogênicas / Trauma history and dissociative events study in patients with psychogenic non-epileptic seizures
INTRODUÇÃO: As crises não-epilépticas psicogênicas são uma condição médica complexa que pode se apresentar como sintomas físicos ou neurológicos porém sem achados orgânicos correspondentes, evidenciando a presença de fatores psicológicos como base dos sintomas. Elas podem ocorrer isoladamente ou se repetir de forma sistemática. Quando se repe

14. Frequência e fatores relacionados a transtornos psiquiátricos na epilepsia do lobo temporal
Introduction: Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is the most common epileptic syndrome in adults. The psychiatric comorbidities in epilepsy, especially in TLE, are very frequent and their complex relationship has been a recurrent issue in literature. Objectives: To evaluate the frequency and intensity of psychiatric disorders in patients with TLE considering their

15. Estudo de pacientes submetidos a profilaxia antiepilÃptica apÃs cirurgia para traumatismo craniencefÃlico
Introduction: Epileptic crisis after neurological surgery for brain injury, derived from symptomatic vasospasms or cortical injuries, can aggravate aggression to nervous system due to metabolic alterations. Clinical behavior for these epileptic crises still excites controversy on the institution of antiepileptic treatment as well as to best drug, time and id

16. Espectroscopia por ressonância magnética de prótons em epilepsia mioclônica juvenil sugere o comprometimento de uma rede neuronal específica
OBJECTIVES: The neuroanatomical basis and the neurochemical abnormalities that underlay juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) are not fully defined. While the thalamus plays a central role in synchronization of widespread regions of the cerebral cortex during a seizure, emerging evidence suggests that all cortical neurons may not be homogeneously involved. The p

18. Avaliação sistematica dos aspectos clinicos e geneticos de pacientes com epilepsias mioclonicas progressivas
Progressive Mioclonic Epilepsies (PME) are arare heterogeneous group of genetically determined disorders characterized by epilepsy, mioclonic jerks and progressive neuroIogicaI decline including dementia and ataxia. There are five main disorders which can cause PME: Unverricht-Lundborg disease (ULD) and Lafora disease (LD), ceroides neuronal lipofuscinoses (

19. Caracteristicas clinicas, eletrograficas e de imagem no diagnostico diferencial entre epilepsias parcial e generalizada idiopatica
Idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE) is often not recognized, they resulting in serious consequences for the sufferers. We examined factors contributing to the errors in the diagnosis of IGE in 41 adults attending our epilepsy clinic who had previous diagnosis of partial epilepsy but semiology or EEG findings suggesting a possible differential diagnosis.

20. Clinical and eletroencephalographic differentiation of typical absences with simultaneous recording of clinical seizures with video tape: a study of 489 seizures in 18 patients / DiferenciaÃÃo clÃnica e eletroencefalogrÃfica de ausÃncias tÃpicas com registro simultÃneo de crises clÃnicas em vÃdeo: estudo de 489 crises em 18 pacientes
We recorded by "video-EEG" 489 typical absence seizures in 18 patients aged four years and 10 months to 64 years and 11 months. Typical absence was defined as the Seizure Classification of the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) (1981): "sudden onset, interruption of activities, blank stare and possible upward rotation of the eyes". Syndromic diagno

21. Caracterização das principais mutações de ponto do DNA mitocondrial em um grupo de pacientes com doenças neurodegenerativas
Mitochondrial disease are genetic and clinic heterogeneous entities that are variable in age of onset, clinical severity and evolution. They are classified in abnormalities of nuclear DNA or mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). Point mutations are found in mitochondrial genomes and most frequent phenotypes are MELAS (mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis, a

22. Syphilitic meningitis in HIV-patients with meningeal syndrome: report of two cases and review
Few patients with symptomatic neurosyphilis present with signs and symptoms of acute meningitis. Here we report two cases of syphilitic meningitis diagnosed in HIV patients with meningeal syndrome. The first case, a 30-year-old black bisexual male, had concurrent meningeal and ocular syphilis with persistent unusually low CSF glucose levels. He responded wel

23. Paralisia cerebral hemiparetica : aspectos evolutivos, plasticidade cerebral e especialização hemisferica
We have studied the hemispheric specialization in patients with hemiparetic cerebral palsy, correlating some neurological functions with the computerized tomography (TC) findings. We have folIowed 125 children (54% male and left hemiparesis in 54%) tduring a mean period of six years. We used two classifications: a) clinical, which considered motor function,

The present research refers to the the relationship between epileptic syndrome - Complex Partial Seizures - and cognitive performance. In order to study this subject we defined the following aims: 1) Characterization of neuroclinic condition of epileptic patients; 2) We studied the correlations between Epilepsy and Neuropsychological disorders; and 3) Contri
