Purpose: We sought to estimate the prevalence of isolated epileptiform activity (IEA) in children with speech and language impairments and discuss the utility of an electroencephalogram (EEG) in assessing these children. Method: We conducted a systematic review and searched for eligible studies in 8 databases. All languages were included, and…

Terry, Debbie; Trott, Kristen – Journal of School Nursing, 2021
Psychogenic nonepileptic events (PNEE) are paroxysmal changes in behavior resembling epileptic seizures but with no electrographic correlate and are instead caused by psychological factors. In this qualitative study, semistructured interviews were conducted with 10 school nurses to identify how they perceive the experience of caring for a student…

de Jong, Valentijn M. T.; Moons, Karel G. M.; Riley, Richard D.; Tudur Smith, Catrin; Marson, Anthony G.; Eijkemans, Marinus J. C.; Debray, Thomas P. A. – Research Synthesis Methods, 2020
Many randomized trials evaluate an intervention effect on time-to-event outcomes. Individual participant data (IPD) from such trials can be obtained and combined in a so-called IPD meta-analysis (IPD-MA), to summarize the overall intervention effect. We performed a narrative literature review to provide an overview of methods for conducting an…

Blickwedel, Jessica; Vickerstaff, Victoria; Walker, Matthew; Hassiotis, Angela – Journal of Intellectual & Developmental Disability, 2019
Background: As both epilepsy and challenging behaviour are highly prevalent in adults with intellectual disability (ID) it is important to explore any potential relationships between the two to inform patient care. The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between epilepsy factors and challenging behaviour in adults with ID.…

Sherif, Abdulmagid; Fares, Serag; Hammuda, Mohammed Ben; Nasrat, Taofik; Eserraj, Wensa – Education, 2017
A rundown of presymptomatic hazard elements is set up in view of audit of current writing. Distinguishing proof of such hazard variables may possibly help with prophylactic treatment; be that as it may, minimal exact research exists around there and treatment rules are up to this point to a great extent in view of master conclusion. Advance, while…

Baram, Tallie Z.; Donato, Flavio; Holmes, Gregory L. – Learning & Memory, 2019
Spatial memory, the aspect of memory involving encoding and retrieval of information regarding one's environment and spatial orientation, is a complex biological function incorporating multiple neuronal networks. Hippocampus-dependent spatial memory is not innate and emerges during development in both humans and rodents. In children,…

Blickwedel, Jessica; Ali, Afia; Hassiotis, Angela – Journal of Intellectual & Developmental Disability, 2019
Background: Epilepsy and challenging behaviour are both highly prevalent in the intellectual disability (ID) population and it is thus crucial to understand any possible associations between the two. Method: PsycINFO, MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL and Web of Science were searched for quantitative data about epilepsy and any forms of challenging…

Well-prepared school nurses are more likely to handle emergencies properly. Thus, assessing crisis management preparedness is important. In August 2014, a questionnaire was sent to 275 nurses in a large Texas school system to collect data about nurse and school characteristics, emergency frequency and management, and equipment availability.…

Boothe, Anne; Zuna, Nina – International Journal of Disability, Development and Education, 2019
The rates of epilepsy among children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are higher than that of the general population. The exact prevalence and aetiology of the comorbidity of autism and epilepsy are not well understood; however, the connection is well-documented. This common comorbidity makes the treatment of epilepsy increasingly complex for…

Haynes, Melanie – ProQuest LLC, 2019
There is a lack of self-efficacy of teachers in meeting the needs of students with health conditions, in particular, seizures. This can be linked to a lack of knowledge and education. Interventions/Methods: To improve teachers' self-efficacy when working with students with seizure disorders, an online educational module was created. Teachers in a…

Zhang, Wanqing; Baranek, Grace; Boyd, Brian – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2018
We examined how demographic and clinical characteristics differ between emergency department (ED) visits for epilepsy (EP cohort) and ED visits for other reasons (non-EP cohort) in children with ASD. The data were drawn from the 2009 and 2010 Nationwide Emergency Department Sample. We performed both univariate and multivariate analyses to compare…

Cohen, Ira L.; Tsiouris, John A. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2020
Aggressive behaviors in those with intellectual disability (ID) and autism (ASD) have been linked to a variety of factors including ID level, age, sex, psychiatric disorders, and medical conditions but these factors have not been studied, in large samples, in terms of how they affect the stimuli that trigger aggression. In this survey of 2243…
