Seizure Recurrence After Unprovoked First Seizure
One in 10 people have a seizure during their life. Usually no cause is identified. Seizures without an identified cause are called unprovoked first seizure (UFS). Most people with UFS do not have further seizures. Being able to predict the risk of more seizures as soon as possible would help …
Understanding Ketamine's Dissociative Effects (KD Study)
The purpose of this study is to understand how ketamine brings about dissociative symptoms.
Hybrid Micro-macro Electrodes in Patients With Epilepsy
The aim of the MicroEPI study is to know whether it is possible to use safely a medical device (a micro-electrode) that allows recording the activity of neurons in the human brain. Patients who suffer from drug-resistant epilepsy and who are candidates to epilepsy surgery to alleviate their condition sometimes …
Brain Activity in Epilepsy
Prospective interventional study with implantation of micro-electrodes to study the brain networks in epilepsy at high spatiotemporal resolution.
Telephone-Based Support Programs for People With Epilepsy
This is a two-arm randomized controlled trial to compare telephone-based depression self-management (UPLIFT) to telephone-based support groups (BOOST). A sample of 120 English- and Spanish-speaking people with epilepsy (PWE) with elevated depressive symptoms will be enrolled. Both interventions are 8-week programs delivered in one-hour weekly sessions to groups of about …
Antiepileptic Drugs in Elderly Patients
The purpose is to study the population pharmacokinetics, effectiveness and safety of antiepileptic drug (phenytoin, carbamazepine, lamotrigine, levetiracetam, parempanel, etc) in elderly patients and recommend optimized dosage regimens.
Readiness Brain Operation Optimization Training (ReBOOT) for Epilepsy Surgery
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if new educational program prior to epilepsy surgery can either decrease the risk of cognitive decline after surgery or be a help to those patients who experience a decline after undergoing epilepsy surgery. Participants will participate in 2 individual virtual sessions …
Clinical Outcomes of Pregnant Individuals With Epilepsy - Prospective Study
The aim of this study is to investigate the pregnancy, delivery, neonatal, and epilepsy outcomes in individuals with epilepsy undergoing pregnancy at the Maternal and Infant Health Programs at the University Health Network - Sinai Health and followed for epilepsy at the Toronto Western Hospital Epilepsy Clinic. In particular, we …
Clinical Study Evaluating Safety of Pentoxifylline and Celecoxib in Patients With Grand-Mal Epilepsy Treated by Phenytoin Monotherapy
Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder affecting millions of people all over the world. Epileptic seizures are caused by abnormal synchronized electrical neuronal discharges that could be either focal or widespread. Pathogenesis of epilepsy involves multiple processes including genetics, oxidative stress, ion channels, neuroinflammation, and cellular damage through autophagy and …
Implicit Learning in Epileptic Children
Epileptic children suffer from impairments in various learning and memory tasks. Yet, no study investigated implicit learning in epileptic children. Implicit learning is not only underlying motor skills acquisition, but also social and cognitive ones. Because acquisition of new skills is optimal during childhood, the study of implicit learning mechanism …
