Rare genetic neurodevelopmental disorders, such as Syt-1 or Baker Gordon Syndrome (BAGOS) arise from mutations in genes essential for brain development and function, often disrupting neurotransmission and neuronal connectivity. These conditions present with a wide range of symptoms including developmental delays, seizures, motor and behavioral challenges, and vary widely in …
The primary goal of the study is to explore the neurocognitive, emotional-behavioral functioning, and quality of life of adolescents with IGE, identifying key factors that affect their overall well-being. The study involves participants and their caregivers completing standardized questionnaires. Additionally, clinical and anamnesic information will be collected to investigate the …
The goal of this study is to learn about the effects of scopolamine (an anticholinergic drug) on areas of the brain involved in memory, and changes it may have on brain activity. The investigators will do this by testing epileptic patients who are already undergoing intracranial surgery for seizure monitoring, …
CAN-RWE is an observational study that is following 500 children who have authorizations for medical cannabis for two years from across Canada.
This study aims to investigate the efficacy of add-on exogenous ketone esters for the treatment of children with refractory generalized convulsive status epilepticus
A variety of antineuronal antibodies have been detected in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of patients with neurological diseases. This raises the question of whether these antibodies are disease-specific or merely an epiphenomenon of inflammatory processes in the brain. The registry was established with the following objectives: \[1\] Are antineuronal antibodies …
This is a randomized effectiveness/implementation trial comparing a 24-week neurology-based collaborative care intervention to usual neurology care among 60 adults with epilepsy.
Background Some people with brain tumors have seizures related to the tumor. This is called tumor-related epilepsy. Usually brain tumors are treated by removing as much of the brain tumor as possible without causing problems. Researchers think this may improve the outcome for people with brain tumors. It may completely …
The goal is to develop methodology to monitor flux in the citric acid cycle in brain via 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy at 7 Tesla.
This observational natural history study will follow individuals with MEHMO (Mental disability, Epileptic seizure, Hypopituitarism/Hypogenitalism, Microcephaly, Obesity) syndrome or an eIF2-pathway related disorder, who have symptoms such as intellectual delay, seizures, abnormal hormone and blood sugar levels, and decreased motor skills. No current treatment for these conditions is available. A …
