Popis: To clarify the effects of sleep on cortical irritability in benign adult familial myoclonus epilepsy (BAFME), we retrospectively compared epileptiform discharges of electroencephalographies (EEGs) between awake and sleep periods in 5 patients (mean age: 49.6 ± 20.3 years). We also analyzed polysomnography (PSG) of 1 patient. Epileptiform discharges were significantly more frequent during the awake period (1.3 ± 1.2/min) than those during light sleep stages (0.02 ± 0.04/min) (P
Highlights • We retrospectively analyzed the number of epileptiform discharges in BAFME. • Epileptiform discharges were more frequent during awake period in BAFME. • Our study indicated a reduction in cortical irritability during sleep in BAFME. • BAFME and Unverricht-Lundborg disease may share a similar phenomenological mechanism.
