Presentation
Acronym EIEE26 Keywords Any medical or genetic information present in this entry is provided for research, educational and informational purposes only. [uniprot.org]
Diagnosis [ edit ] The diagnosis is based on the clinical presentation and on typical electroencephalographic patterns. [19] Treatment [ edit ] Treatment outlook is poor. [en.wikipedia.org]
When seizures present in infancy, there are a number of potential causes that may need to be excluded before genetic testing is pursued. This often depends on the presentation and other clinical factors. [kcnq2cure.org]
I wonder what role non-coding RNAs play in the cases presented by Irimia et al., which is not touched upon. [epilepsygenetics.net]
Clinical description Onset of EIEE occurs within the first 3 months of life but some present within the first few weeks after birth. [orpha.net]

This new classification, shown in Table 1, is still controversial since it groups seizures into neonatal epileptic seizures, and non-epileptic seizures that are characterized by primitive motor patterns of the cerebral and medullar trunk(,). [jped.com.br]

- Global Developmental Delay
The clinical features included infant-onset refractory seizures of multiple types, diffuse slow-wave EEG with multifocal spikes, global developmental delay, and hypotonia. [docksci.com]
All surviving children have global developmental delays. Some children may progress to West syndrome and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome. These 3 disorders are considered to be on a spectrum by some authors. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Workup
We identified 26 patients with Infantile Epileptic Encephalopathy (IEE) of unknown etiology despite extensive workup and without any specific epilepsy syndromic phenotypes. [journals.plos.org]
Diagnostic workup In early myoclonic encephalopathy, EEG is characterized by a "burst-suppression" pattern with bursts of spikes, sharp waves, and slow waves, which are irregularly intermingled and separated by periods of electrical silence. [intechopen.com]

Prognosis
Definition A form of epileptic encephalopathy, a heterogeneous group of severe childhood onset epilepsies characterized by refractory seizures, neurodevelopmental impairment, and poor prognosis. [uniprot.org]
Prognosis Children have a poor prognosis, experiencing developmental regression, and eventual severe mental retardation. [intechopen.com]
There are many manifestations of epilepsy and, therefore, a diversity of factors in underlying pathology, responses to treatment and prognosis. [books.google.com]
Neonatal seizures are usually multifactorial, and their prognosis is strongly related to their etiology(). [jped.com.br]
Prognosis Prognosis is poor with death usually occurring in infancy (50% before age of 2). Survivors have severe psychomotor impairments with continuing seizures. The documents contained in this web site are presented for information purposes only. [orpha.net]
Etiology
The etiology or associated disorders involve a wide series of neonatal diseases and metabolic disorders. Neonatal seizures are usually multifactorial, and their prognosis is strongly related to their etiology(). [jped.com.br]
Etiology No clear etiology is found in approximately 40% of cases ( Hrachovy, 2008 & Vigevano, 1992). [intechopen.com]
Etiology EIEE may be the result of different etiologies. Many cases have been associated with structural brain abnormalities. [orpha.net]
Etiologic considerations Identification of the underlying etiology is also an important issue when considering appropriate management of neonatal seizures. [dovepress.com]
The developmental prognosis partially depends on the etiology. When classified by etiology, normal development was described in 51% of cryptogenic cases versus only 6% of symptomatic cases. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Prevention
Both mutants inhibited repetitive neuronal firing through preventing production of deep interspike voltages. [docksci.com]
However, currently, developed countries mainly use less reactogenic acellular pertussis vaccines. 26 Moreover, cancellation of vaccination increases the risk of a vaccine-preventable disease (eg, pertussis, measles). [pediatrics.aappublications.org]

It is also unclear if an adverse neurodevelopmental outcome, occurring as a consequence of seizures, can be prevented by currently available treatment. [dovepress.com]
