DOI: 10.1017/s0031182022001780
Abstract: Abstract Abstract Epilepsy, a chronic disease of the central nervous system, is highly prevalent in malaria-endemic regions. Therefore, several studies have evaluated the associations between malaria infection and epilepsy development. A meta-analysis of observational studies… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/wco.0000000000000798
Abstract: PURPOSE OF REVIEW Epilepsy is a dynamical disorder of the brain characterized by sudden, seemingly unpredictable transitions to the ictal state. When and how these transitions occur remain unresolved questions in neurology. RECENT FINDINGS Modelling… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ane.13605
Abstract: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) and perinatal adversities such as low gestational age at birth, low birth weight, low Apgar, and being born small for gestational age are well‐established risk factors for epilepsy. We examined whether… read more here.
