Abstract:A cross-sectional epidemiological study was done among a general population in a big hospital in São Paulo, Brazil. From an initial population of 1781 nursing personnel, 407 were called for a semi-structured interview based on a standard questionnaire. The average age of the interviewed population was 32.6 + 9.2 years old and 89.4% were female. Making use of the criteria of the International Headache Society, prevalence of migraine was detected in 53.1% of them (22.1% migraine without aura; 7,9% migraine with … Show more
“…There is evidence that the dysfunction may be several times greater than the observed structural defect. [39,40] This suggests that, in addition to anatomical abnormalities, a process of neuronal inhibition occurs during the interictal phase that translates into perfusion and metabolic dysfunction. We reported a higher coincidence than that reported by other authors, due, we believe, to a semi-quantitative analysis of brain perfusion in the regions evaluated.…”
This study evaluated V-EEG ictal onset localization recorded with scalp electrodes, using spectral analysis of the ictal EEG signal combined with source localization methods, as well as the correlation between these and functional neuroimaging techniques, for presurgical evaluation of TLE patients.
METHODS
Sample.Between 2001 and 2006, 72 patients with refractory complex partial epileptic seizures of presumed temporal origin

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.
