“…Loddenkemper et al 15 studied children with lesional focal epilepsy, and showed that frontal and parietal lobe seizures occurred mostly during sleep independent of day or night. Gurkas et al 16 described 170 patients (909 seizures) and found that frontal lobe seizures occurred more often at night and in sleep. In our study, the occurence of seizures were grouped with respect to sleep and awake states, as well as day and night-time sleep.…”

“…The circadian rhythm of epilepsy occurrence is influenced by the localization of epilepsy. After analyzing the clinical seizures of 170 consecutive epilepsy patients, Gurkas et al (17) found that seizures in children occur in specific circadian patterns depending on seizure onset location: generalized seizures were seen most frequently in wakefulness; frontal lobe seizures were seen at night and in sleep. In children, temporal lobe seizures occurred more frequently in wakefulness, usually in early evening (9,18,19,37).…”

“…The results of Loddenkemper et al (9) showed that, in children with focal epilepsy, frontal lobe seizures occurred predominantly during sleep, while temporal lobe seizures happened mostly during wakefulness. Generalized epilepsy often happens during daytime when children are wake (17,22). Passarelli et al (23) found that young patients with epilepsy associated with unilateral mesial temporal sclerosis had more seizures than middle-aged/old patients between 16:01 and 20:00 during video-EEG monitoring.…”

This study aimed to review the research status and to demonstrate the hot spots and frontiers of epilepsy and circadian rhythm via CiteSpace. Method: We searched Web of Science (WoS) for studies related to epilepsy and circadian rhythm from inception to 2020. CiteSpace was used to generate network maps about the collaborations between authors, countries, and institutions and reveal hot spots and frontiers of epilepsy and circadian rhythm. Results: A total of 704 studies related to epilepsy and circadian rhythm from the WoS were retrieved. Sanchez-Vazquez FJ was the most prolific author (17 articles). The USA and University of Murcia were the leading country and institution in this field with 219 and 22 publications, respectively. There were active collaborations among the authors, countries, and institutions. Hot topics focused on the interaction between epilepsy and circadian rhythm, as well as possible novel treatments. Conclusions: Based on the results of CiteSpace, the current study suggested active cooperation between authors, countries, and institutions. Major ongoing research trends include the circadian rhythm of epilepsy based on different epileptic focus and the interaction between epilepsy and circadian rhythm, especially through melatonin, sleep-wake cycles, and clock genes, which may implicate possible treatments (such as chronotherapy, neural stem cells transplantation) for epilepsy in the future.

“…Badania przeprowadzone wśród chorych z napadami o uogólnionym charakterze także wskazują na ich występowanie w godzinach porannych [31]. Napady padaczkowe mają tendencję do pojawiania się w określonym czasie doby, a charakter napadów zmienia się w zależności od patofizjologii zespołu padaczkowego [32]. Rytmiczny charakter napadów padaczkowych może zależeć więc od sprawnego działania zegara biologicznego.…”

Napady padaczkowe występują w sposób nawrotowy, w niektórych padaczkach i zespołach padaczkowych nawet cykliczny, uwzględniając rytm okołodobowy, tygodniowy a nawet miesięczny. Celem pracy była analiza danych z piśmiennictwa dotyczącego tzw. chronozależności padaczki i napadów padaczkowych. W dostępnym piśmiennictwie dyskutowany jest problem chronobiologii padaczek oraz jest wiele obserwacji potwierdzających cykliczność napadów padaczkowych w różnych populacjach chorych. Wyodrębnienie tzw. chronotypów padaczek oraz założeń chronofarmakologii wymaga jednak dalszych obserwacji.
