Cytogenetic abnormalities such as dup(15q), as well as single gene mutations affecting CNTNAP2 (cortical dysplasia focal epilepsy syndrome), CACNA1C (Timothy syndrome), MECP2 (Rett syndrome), and FMR1 (fragile X syndrome), are associated with ASD in more than 50% of the cases [ 2].
Our objective was to determine the prevalence of anti-P in 150 SLE patients, focusing on psychosis and/or mood disorders, other diffuse NP syndromes and focal NP syndromes, and to analyze the manifestation of NP syndromes regarding SLE duration and anti-P status.
When lung contusion is visualised using LUS it may either be seen as areas with focal interstitial syndrome or areas with lung consolidation [176, 177].
Pathological conditions for syphilis, leprosy, FOS (Focal Osteolytic Syndrome) and tuberculosis were scored after a manual created at ADBOU [35] including new scores adapted from [36, 37] and Schwarz (unpublished observations).
Our aim was to evaluate the effect of tDCS in patients diagnosed with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis (MTLE-HS) which is a well-known drug-resistant focal epilepsy syndrome.
Findings from the neuropsychological tests suggest that PPAOS is a relatively focal neurodegenerative syndrome.
More recently, disease-oriented neuroimaging research has moved toward more dynamic assessments of network connectivity, confirming an idea that has long been suspected: that each focal neurodegenerative syndrome targets a specific large-scale distributed network.
Rolandic epilepsy (RE) is an idiopathic focal epilepsy syndrome, which occurs in childhood [ 1], and results in clinical manifestations of biphasic sharp wave discharges around the rolandic fissure [ 2, 3].
This technique is likely to be useful in patients with focal cortical syndromes such as PPA and posterior cortical atrophy, as these are pathologically heterogeneous syndromes that are variably associated with underlying AD.
