In the context of focal epilepsy, the simultaneous combination of electroencephalography (EEG) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) holds a great promise as a technique by which the hemodynamic correlates of interictal spikes detected on scalp EEG can be identified. The fact that traditional EEG recordings have not been able to overcome the difficulty in correlating the ictal clinical symptoms to th...
A group of 65 patients, comprising 59 apparently unrelated families, were screened for mutations in the sarcoglycan (SG) genes, as well as in the CANP3 and DYSF genes. A total of 30 families(36 patients) were characterized at the molecular level and found to fall into the following groups: 4, LGMD2A; 15, LGMDC; 8, LGMD2D; 3, LGMD2E. Four new mutations were identi®ed: two in the a-SG and two in the b-SG genes. O...
