They happen most often in people with generalized epilepsy of unknown cause.

Injury during birth is the most common cause of symptomatic generalized epilepsy.

I work as a teacher at a Christian School and two years ago was diagnosed with primary generalized epilepsy.

Generalized epilepsy of unknown cause that produces more than one type of seizure.

Symptomatic generalized epilepsy is caused by widespread brain damage.

They are strongly suggestive of a generalized epilepsy.

It involves the development of generalized epilepsy of unknown causes in middle-aged adults.

In idiopathic generalized epilepsy, there is often, but not always, a family history of epilepsy.

Absence seizures are most common in childhood and occur in people with generalized epilepsy of unknown cause.

Idiopathic generalized epilepsy tends to appear during childhood or adolescence, although it may not be diagnosed until adulthood.

The types of seizures affecting patients with idiopathic generalized epilepsy may include:

They occur mostly in people with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, a severe form of generalized epilepsy that begins during early childhood.

Single nucleotide polymorphisms in this gene may be associated with generalized epilepsy with photosensitivity.

Myoclonic seizures affect a small number of children and adults with generalized epilepsy of unknown cause (idiopathic).

Partial seizures evolving into a secondary generalized epilepsy (known as generalized seizure)

In individuals with idiopathic generalized epilepsy, K-complex induced synchronization can trigger spike-wave discharges.

People with idiopathic generalized epilepsy have normal intelligence and the results of the neurological exam and MRI are usually normal.

Generalized epilepsy but not focal epilepsy is higher in the morning probably reflecting a diurnal variation in cortical excitability.

Idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE) is a group of epileptic disorders that are believed to have a strong underlying genetic basis.

The treatment of idiopathic generalized epilepsy is demanding because many antiepileptic drugs are either ineffective or exaggerate absences and myoclonic jerks.

Generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus (GEFS+)

Generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus (GEFS+) is an umbrella for many other syndromes that share causative genes.

Childhood absence epilepsy (CAE), also known as pyknolepsy, is an idiopathic generalized epilepsy which occurs in otherwise normal children.

Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) is an idiopathic generalized epilepsy that occurs in patients aged 8 to 20 years.

Variants of Ca3.2 with increased channel activity contribute to susceptibility to idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE), but are not sufficient to induce epilepsy on their own.
