OBJECTIVE
To investigate the occipital EEG response to 18 and 24Hz photic stimulation (the H-response) in alcohol-related seizures (ARS).
METHODS
Twenty-two ARS patients, 15 of whom had a withdrawal seizure (WS) were compared with patients with recent seizures of other causes: 21 patients with
BACKGROUND
To investigate whether quantitative electroencephalography (QEEG) recorded within a few days after a generalized seizure can improve the discrimination between alcohol-related seizures (ARSs), seizures in epilepsy and other seizures. In addition, we wanted to evaluate the influence of
OBJECTIVE
To study if electroencephalogram (EEG) can discriminate between alcohol-related seizures (ARS) and seizures unrelated to alcohol use.
METHODS
Alcohol-related seizures was defined as a seizure in a patient with score > or = 8 in the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT).
A case is presented of convulsions, subarachnoid haemorrhage and death following the use of meglumine iothalamate 280 for myelography. The patient was suffering from sciatica but had no pre-existing symptoms of other neurological disease. This case dramatically illustrates the dangers inherent in
The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of hazardous alcohol drinking on the occurrence of epileptic seizures, the semiology of such seizures, and the extent of the problem. A consecutive sample of 142 acute seizure patients (78 male and 64 female, mean age 46 (16-79) years) was
The symptom intensity and mortality of human diseases, conditions, and syndromes exhibit diurnal or 24 h patterning, e.g., skin: atopic dermatitis, urticaria, psoriasis, and palmar hyperhidrosis; gastrointestinal: esophageal reflux, peptic ulcer (including perforation and hemorrhage), cyclic
In patients with lumbago-sciatica levomepromazine is a potent supplement to analgetics in pain treatment. The hypothesis that neuroleptics increase the risk of epileptic seizures after metrizamide myelography was not confirmed in a series of 77 patients, 26 with and 51 without levomepromazine
OBJECTIVE
Alcohol-related neurological diseases are encountered frequently. Early diagnosis is essential, because minimal intervention effectively reduces hazardous alcohol consumption and may prevent permanent neurological damage. Carbohydrate-deficient transferrin (CDT) is a valuable tool for the
BACKGROUND
Analgesic opioid use has increased dramatically in the general population. Although opioid analgesics are not indicated for the treatment of epilepsy, frequent opioid use has been reported in the epilepsy population. It is not clear whether comorbid disorders and/or epilepsy-associated
A 76-year-old male with chief complaints of back and right leg sciatica was hospitalized. His abdominal CT scan revealed lumber spondylitic stenosis. A laminectomy was performed. Postoperatively, he became febrile, aphasic and had grand mal seizure. A left craniotomy of the front abscess, seen in
A 32-year-old lady presented postnatally with headaches, blurred vision and left leg numbness, which was initially diagnosed as migraine with sciatica. Subsequently, she developed seizures and was admitted to ITU. Investigations revealed abnormal grey matter perfusion in the right occipital region
Our objective was to determine patterns, reasons for, and correlates of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) use in US adults with common neurological conditions. We compared CAM use between adults with and without common neurological conditions (regular headaches, migraines, back pain with
BACKGROUND
Over 40% of adults with common neurological conditions use complementary and alternative medicine, and mind-body therapies are the most commonly used form. Our objective was to describe mind-body use in adults with common neurological conditions.
METHODS
We compared mind-body use between
