“…However, although they found no statistically significant difference in epileptiform activity in those who had regression compared with those without regression, scrutiny of the results reveals that there was a trend towards greater epileptiform activity in the group that had regression, suggesting the possibility that larger numbers of patients might have yielded a statistically significant result. In addition, Hughes drew attention to results from a study that found more frequent epileptiform discharges in children with autism but without regression than in children with autism but without regression [9], as well as to results from a magnetoencephalography (MEG) study [10] that found epileptiform abnormalities in all study participants with autism. At the time of the Hughes reviews, this debate was unresolved.…”

“…LKS Patient's verbal auditory agnosia can, therefore, be understood as local epilepsy of the auditory cortex, activated by sounds. MEG alone or combined with EEG has proved useful in identifying the sources of epileptic activity in LK, as well as in childhood epileptic autistic regression disorders (Sobel et al,2000;Muñoz Yunta et al,2008).…”

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.
