    Abstract Childhood epilepsy is characterized by specific epilepsy syndromes that occur during each developmental age. These "age-dependent" epilepsy syndromes are clinically categorized into a self-limited epilepsy group with good prognosis and high prevalence rate and a pharmacoresistant epilepsy group with poor prognosis despite low prevalence rates. Many children develop pharmacoresistant epilepsy beginning in early infancy and progress to developmental epileptic encephalopathy, which is associated with intellectual, behavioral, and/or motor disabilities. These children do not show remission in epilepsy and are transitioned to the adult service and require comprehensive medical care.

    Abstract Purpose: In the 2022 New International Classification of Epilepsy Syndromes, self-limited epilepsy with autonomic seizures (SeLEAS), formerly known as Panayiotopoulos syndrome is recognized as an electroclinical syndrome that is clinically characterized by autonomic seizures and electroencephalographically by multifocal EEG foci. EEG studies were reviewed herein and the suitability of the EEG definition to characterize SeLEAS was assessed.
    Methods and results: The EEG findings of SeLEAS studies published to date were reviewed and typical sites of EEG foci and their evolutionary changes with age were analyzed. Although previous studies investigated the details of interictal EEG characteristics in a sufficient number of SeLEAS cases, there were few systematically analyzing cross sectional and longitudinal EEG changes except one study. Despite these limited evidence, I propose the following practical and useful EEG definition. The interictal EEG characteristics of SeLEAS are multifocal EEG foci with age-dependent predominant locations; occipital (O) at 2-5 years old, and occipital and frontopolar (synchronous and independent O and Fp spikes) at 4-7 years old and centro-parieto-temporal (CPT) at 6-10 years old. O EEG foci evolve to multifocal EEG foci with a O-Fp or CPT predominance with age and disappear by 12∼16 years old. O-Fp EEG foci may further evolve to generalized spike-wave complexes and rarely to spike-wave activated in sleep. In rare cases, the EEGs do not have epileptic EEG foci.
    Conclusion: Interictal EEG foci in SeLAES may have different EEG patterns in terms of location and the mode of appearance depending on the age at which EEG is recorded. O-Fp EEG foci may be a specific EEG pattern indicating a diagnosis of SeLEAS.

    Abstract Purpose: The aim of this review is to propose the updated diagnostic criteria of epilepsy with myoclonic-atonic seizures (EMAS), which is a recent subject of genetic studies. Although EMAS has been well known as Doose syndrome, it is often difficult to diagnose due to a lack of consensus regarding some of the inclusion criteria. Along with progress in molecular genetic study on the syndrome, it becomes important to recruit electroclinical homogeneous EMAS patients, hence the validity of the clinical criteria should be verified based on recent clinical researches. At present, the most updated ILAE diagnostic manual of EMAS includes: (1) normal development and cognition before the onset of epilepsy; (2) onset of epilepsy between 6 months and 6 years of age (peak: 2-4 years); (3) myoclonic-atonic seizures (MAS) are mandatory (4) presence of generalized spike-wave discharges at 2-3 Hz without persistent focal spike discharges; and (5) exclusion of other myoclonic epilepsy syndromes. In the criteria, we should emphasize that the age at onset of MAS is between 2-5 years in (2), presence of myoclonic-atonic, atonic or myoclonic-flexor seizures (MASs) causing drop attacks associated with generalized spike-wave discharges is mandatory in (3), and epileptic spasms causing drop attacks must be excluded in (5). In the modified criteria, I propose that EMAS is redesignated as genetic generalized epilepsy with MASs, consistent with the familial genetic study conducted by Doose and the recent identification of candidate genes. It should also be noted that EMASs evolves to transient or long-lasting epileptic encephalopathy.

    Abstract Aim: To investigate the clinical characteristics of non-epileptic seizures due to transient brain dysfunction caused by energy deficiency after prolonged fasting or exercise in individuals with glucose transporter type 1 deficiency syndrome (Glut1DS), and then elucidate further the seizure features to distinguish non-epileptic seizures from epileptic seizures.
    Method: This retrospective case-control study included 57 non-epileptic seizures and 23 epileptic seizures (control group) in 14 individuals (11 males, three females; aged 5-44 years, median = 20 years) with Glut1DS, all with a heterozygous pathogenic SLC2A1 mutation.
    Results: Non-epileptic seizures were classified as paroxysmal altered consciousness (n = 8), movement disorders (n = 35) (eye-head movements, ataxia, spasticity, weakness, involuntary movement), dysaesthesia (n = 8), and vomiting (n = 6) at the peak ages at onset of 5 to 10 years. Ketogenic diet therapy was effective in 33 of 43 (77%) non-epileptic seizures. Providing supplementary food before high-impact exercise or during attacks prevented or mitigated non-epileptic seizures in some individuals. Glut1DS-associated non-epileptic seizures are fundamentally situation-related seizures with specific provoking and ameliorating factors. Non-epileptic seizures can be distinguished from epileptic seizures by the absence of complete consciousness loss and rapid postictal recovery despite prolonged seizures.
    Interpretation: Non-epileptic seizures are not well recognized but require different therapeutic approaches compared to epileptic seizures. Awareness of the differentiation of non-epileptic seizures from epileptic seizures is essential when performing preventive or therapeutic decision-making for acute exacerbation seizures.

    Abstract Low-temperature thermal properties of crystalline [Co(H(2)bim)(3)](TMA)·20H(2)O were studied by adiabatic calorimetry, where H(2)bim is 2,2'-biimidazole, TMA is 1,3,5-benzene tricarboxylic acid, and 20H(2)O represents the water forming nano-channel in the crystal. A glass transition was observed at T(g) = 107 K. It was discussed as a freezing-in phenomenon of a small number of water molecules remaining partially disordered in their positional arrangement. The possibility that some defects really remain in the hydrogen-bond network of channel water was mentioned. Two subsequent phase transitions were observed at 54.8 and 59 K. These were interpreted as being of a (super-structural commensurate)-incommensurate-(normal commensurate) type in the heating direction with respect to the hydrogen-atom positions as referred to the periodicity of the hydrogen-bond network. The transition entropy was evaluated to be 0.65 J K(-1)(H(2)O-mol)(-1) as a total of the two, indicating that the disorder of the hydrogen atoms is present only in part of the water molecules of the channel. Based on the fact that the excess heat capacity due to the equilibrium phase transition is observed down to 35-40 K, the relaxation time for the rearrangement of the hydrogen-atom positions was assumed at the longest to be 1 ks at 35 K. This indicates that the activation energy of the rearrangement amounts to at most 13 kJ mol(-1) and that the transfer of Bjerrum defects is attributed to the rearrangement.
