EEG provides useful diagnostic information and should be considered in all patients presenting to the ED with a seizure. Since the timing of the study affects the diagnostic efficacy of the test, EEG recordings might be done within 24 h either in the ED or epilepsy clinic.
Journal of Cellular Neuroscience and Oxidative Stress is an online journal that publishes original research articles, reviews and short reviews on the molecular basis of biophysical, physiological and pharmacological processes that regulate cellular function, and the control or alteration of these processes by the action of receptors, neurotransmitters, second messengers, cation, anions, drugs or disease. Areas of particular interest are four topics. They are; A-Ion Channels (Na +-K + Channels, Clchannels, Ca 2+ channels, ADP-Ribose and metabolism of NAD + , Patch-Clamp applications) B-Oxidative Stress (Antioxidant vitamins, antioxidant enzymes, metabolism of nitric oxide, oxidative stress, biophysics, biochemistry and physiology of free oxygen radicals) C-Interaction Between Oxidative Stress and Ion Channels in Neuroscience (Effects of the oxidative stress on the activation of the voltage sensitive cation channels, effect of ADP-Ribose and NAD + on activation of the cation channels which are sensitive to voltage, effect of the oxidative stress on activation of the TRP channels in neurodegenerative diseases such Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases) D-Gene and Oxidative Stress (Gene abnormalities. Interaction between gene and free radicals. Gene anomalies and iron. Role of radiation and cancer on gene polymorphism)
As seizure is a clinical event, EEG is not essential for diagnosing the presence of a seizure clinically in the ED. However, the results of EEG provide useful information especially for treatment choices. As the timing of the study affects the diagnostic efficacy of the test, EEG recordings should be performed within 24 h either in ED or in the epilepsy clinic.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
