Image Research news | Dec 15 2016 Stanford Medicine - Scope “Choke point” for most-common form of childhood epilepsy identified Epilepsy, a pattern of recurrent seizures, affects 1 in 26 people over their lifetime. So-called absence epilepsy (also called petit mal seizures) is most common among children ages 6 to 15 and accounts for about 1 in 20 epilepsy cases. Image Research news | Dec 15 2016 Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute Research locates absence epilepsy seizure ‘choke point’ in brain Stanford researchers used a rodent model to discover that shifting the firing pattern of a particular set of brain cells is all it takes to initiate, or to terminate, an absence seizure.
