It is surprising that the piriform cortex, when compared to the hippocampus, has been given
relatively little significance in human epilepsy. Like the hippocampus, it has a …

Purpose Status epilepticus (SE) is a neurological emergency with multiple etiologies and a
complex pathophysiology, which is incompletely understood. Brain magnetic resonance …

The CA1 (cornu ammonis) region of hippocampus is selectively vulnerable to a variety of
metabolic and cytotoxic insults, which is mirrored in a delayed neuronal death of CA1 …

Purpose: Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is used increasingly to study white matter integrity in
people with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). Most studies report fractional anisotropy (FA) …

Purpose: In temporal lobe epilepsy, it remains to be clarified whether hippocampal sclerosis
is the cause or the consequence of epilepsy. We studied the temporal evolution of the …

Purpose: This study examined the hypothesis that neurodegeneration continues after status
epilepticus (SE) ends and that the severity of damage at the early phase of the epileptogenic …

The piriform cortex is a distinct brain region that plays a key role in the sense of smell. The
piriform cortex is the major part of primary olfactory cortex and has broad connections that …

The rat brain was investigated with structural and functional magnetic resonance imaging
(MRI) 12 h after the arrest of pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus lasting 4 h …

Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (mTLE) is the most common focal epilepsy in adults and is
often refractory to medication. So far, resection of the epileptogenic focus represents the only …

Similar to organophosphate (OP) nerve agents, diisopropylfluorophosphate (DFP) rapidly
and irreversibly inhibits acetylcholinesterase, leading to convulsions that can progress to …
