Abstract:CommentaryHypoxia-induced seizures are among the commonest causes of neonatal seizures and raise significantly the risk for subsequent epilepsy and poor neurodevelopmental outcomes (1). Experimental models of early life encephalopathies with seizures are indispensable in the effort to develop effective disease-modifying treatments. The research group authoring this report has pioneered the characterization of a rat model of neonatal hypoxia-induced seizures. Postnatal day 10 (PN10) rats exposed to hypoxia deve… Show more
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.
