Background We quantified pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP), pyridoxal (PL), and 4-pyridoxic acid (PA) in paired serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples from children and investigated the effect of age on the concentrations and CSF-to-serum ratios of these vitamers.
Methods: Serum and CSF samples prospectively collected from 49 pediatric patients were analyzed. PLP, PL, and PA were measured using high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection, using pre column derivatization by semicarbazide. Effects of age on these vitamers, the PLP-to-PL ratio, CSF-to-serum PLP ratio, and CSF-to-serum PL ratio were evaluated using correlation analysis.
Results: The PLP, PL, and PA concentrations in the serum and CSF were higher at younger ages, except for CSF PA concentrations that were mostly below the limit of detection (< 1.2 nmo1/1). The PLP-to-PL ratios in the serum and CSF correlated positively with age. The CSF-to-serum PLP ratio and CSF-to-serum PL ratio were independent of age.
Conclusions: Age-related changes in PLP, PL, and PA in serum and in CSF from pediatric patients and CSF-toserum ratios of PLP and PL demonstrated in this study will provide valuable information for evaluating PLP supply to the central nervous system from the peripheral blood.

Background: We quantified pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP), pyridoxal (PL), and 4-pyridoxic acid (PA) in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of children and to investigate the effect of age, sex, epilepsy, and anti-epileptic drug (AED) therapy on these vitamers.
Methods: CSF samples prospectively collected from 116 pediatric patients were analyzed. PLP, PI, and PA were measured using high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection, using pre-column derivatization by semicarbazide. Effects of age, sex, epilepsy, and AEDs on these vitamers and the PLP/PL ratio were evaluated using multiple linear regression models.
Results: The PLP, PL, and PA concentrations were correlated negatively with age and the PLP/PL ratio was correlated positively with age. Multiple regression analysis revealed that the presence of epilepsy was associated with lower PLP concentrations and PLP/PL ratios but sex and AED therapy had no influence on these values. The observed ranges of these vitamers in epileptic and non-epileptic patients were demonstrated.
Conclusions: We showed the age dependence of PLP and PL in CSF from pediatric patients. Epileptic patients had lower PLP concentrations and PLP/PL ratios than non-epileptic patients, but it is unknown whether this is the cause, or a result, of epilepsy. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

BACKGROUND: We describe a new method for simultaneous measurement of monoamine metabolites (3-O-methyldopa [3-OMD], 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylethyleneglycol [MHPG], 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid [5-HIAA], and homovanillic acid [HVA]) and 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF) and its use on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples from pediatric patients. METHODS: Monoamine metabolites and 5-MTHF were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection. CSF samples were prospectively collected from children according to a standardized collection protocol in which the first 1-ml fraction was used for analysis. RESULTS: Monoamine metabolites and 5-MTHF were separated within 10min. They showed linearity from the limit of detection to 1024nmol/l. The limit of quantification of each metabolite was sufficiently low for the CSF sample assay. In 42 CSF samples after excluding cases with possibly altered neurotransmitter profiles, the concentrations of 3-OMD, MHPG, 5-HIAA, HVA, and 5-MTHF showed significant age dependence and their ranges were comparable with the reference values in the literature.

The limit of quantification of each metabolite was sufficiently low for the CSF sample assay. In 42 CSF samples after excluding cases with possibly altered neurotransmitter profiles, the concentrations of 3-OMD, MHPG, 5-HIAA, HVA, and 5-MTHF showed significant age dependence and their ranges were comparable with the reference values in the literature. The metabolite profiles of aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase deficiency, Segawa disease, and folate receptor alpha defect by this method were compatible with those in the literature.
Conclusions: This method is a simple means of measuring CSF monoamine metabolites and 5-MTHF, and is especially useful for laboratories not equipped with electrochemical detectors. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Electroencephalogram (EEG) data include broadband electrical brain activity ranging from infra-slow bands (<0.1 Hz) to traditional frequency bands (e.g., the approx. 10 Hz alpha rhythm) to high-frequency bands of up to 500 Hz. High-frequency oscillations (HFOs) including ripple and fast ripple oscillations (80-200 Hz and >200/250 Hz, respectively) are particularly of note due to their very close relationship to epileptogenicity, with the possibility that they could function as a surrogate biomarker of epileptogenicity. In contrast, physiological high-frequency activity plays an important role in higher brain functions, and the differentiation between pathological/epileptic and physiological HFOs is a critical issue, especially in epilepsy surgery. HFOs were initially recorded with intracranial electrodes in patients with intractable epilepsy as part of a long-term invasive seizure monitoring study. However, fast oscillations (FOs) in the ripple and gamma bands (40-80 Hz) are now noninvasively detected by scalp EEG and magnetoencephalography, and thus the scope of studies on HFOs/FOs is rapidly expanding.

Objective: To describe an assay of 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5MTHF) in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of children, to determine reference values, and to report the clinical significance of this assay in metabolic disorders affecting folate transport and metabolism.
Methods: CSF 5MTHF was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescent detection in pediatric patients including one with FOLR1 gene mutation and one with methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) deficiency. CSF total folate was measured using an automated analyzer.
Results: 5MTHF and total folate were determined in 188 and 93 CSF samples, respectively. CSF 5MTHF was high throughout the first six months of life and subsequently declined with age. Reference values of CSF 5MTHF and total folate were determined from 162 and 82 samples, respectively. The patient with FOLR1 gene mutation had extremely low CSF 5MTHF and total folate, though these values normalized after folinic acid supplementation. The patient with MTHFR deficiency had extremely low 5MTHF and moderately low total folate; these values were not associated and showed no significant change after folic acid supplementation.
Conclusions: This 5MTHF assay is simple, rapid, sensitive, reliable, and cost-effective. It will aid in the diagnosis and therapeutic monitoring of metabolic disorders affecting folate transport and metabolism. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Objective: We analyzed the spatial distribution and concordance of fast (>10 Hz) and slow (<5 Hz) electroencephalogram (EEG) components of ictal activities and interictal epileptiform discharges (IIED) recorded by intracranial video EEG (IVEEG) in children with epileptic spasms (ES).
Methods: We studied eight children with ES, who underwent IVEEG before resective surgery for epilepsy. We quantified the root-mean-square (RMS) amplitude of the fast and slow components of ictal activities during ES and IIED. We compared the concordance between the spatial distributions of the fast and slow components of ES and IIED.
Results: There was a larger concordance between the spatial distributions of the fast and slow components in IIED than in ES (p = 0.0206 and 0.0401).
Conclusions: The spatial concordance between the fast and slow EEG components was significantly different between ES and IIED.
Significance: The mechanisms underlying the generation of slow EEG components may differ between ES and IIED. The slow EEG components of ES might indicate an extensive epileptic network involving remote symptomatic zones for ES in either the cortical or subcortical areas. The high spatial concordance between the fast and slow components of IIED suggests the involvement of a local inhibitory process within the epileptic cortex.

Purpose: Ictal fear is an uncommon condition in which fear manifests as the main feature of epileptic seizures. The literature has suggested that ictal fear is generally associated with poor seizure outcomes. We wanted to clarify the variability in seizure outcome of children with ictal fear. Subjects and methods: We identified five pediatric patients with ictal fear who were followed up on at Okayama University Hospital between January 2003 and December 2012. We retrospectively reviewed their clinical records and EEG findings. Results: The onset age of epilepsy ranged from 8 months to 9 years and 10 months. The common ictal symptoms were sudden fright, clinging to someone nearby, and subsequent impairment of consciousness, which were often accompanied by complex visual hallucinations and psychosis-like complaints. Ictal fear, in four patients, was perceived as a nonepileptic disorder by their parents. Ictal electroencephalograms (EEG) of ictal fear were obtained in all patients. Three showed frontal onset, while the other two showed centrotemporal or occipital onsets. Two patients were seizure free at last follow-up, while seizures persisted in the other three. A patient with seizure onset during infancy had a favorable outcome, which was considered to be compatible with benign partial epilepsy with affective symptoms. Conclusion: Ictal fear is not always associated with a symptomatic cause or a poor seizure outcome. It is quite important to make a correct diagnosis of ictal fear as early as possible to optimize treatment. (C) 2014 The Japanese Society of Child Neurology. Published by Elsevier B.V.

Dravet syndrome (DS), or severe myoclonic epilepsy in infancy, is one of the most severe types of genetic epilepsy. It is characterized by the initial occurrence of febrile or afebrile seizures that often evolve into status epilepticus in infants with normal development, and by the subsequent appearance of myoclonic and/or atypical absence seizures as well as complex partial seizures. The key feature that characterizes DS is fever sensitivity, although photosensitivity and pattern-sensitivity are also often seen. The prognosis is unfavorable in most cases. Seizures become drug-resistant and persist, with many patients suffering from motor and cognitive impairment. Mutations of SCN1A, which encodes the voltage-gated sodium channel Na(v)1.1, are the most frequent genetic cause of this syndrome. SCN1A mutations and/or microchromosomal rearrangements involving SCN1A are detected in about 85% of patients. Mutations of PCDH19 have also been reported in female patients with clinical findings compatible with DS. PCDH19 mutations might account for 5% of overall DS cases. Thirty years after its first description, DS is considered as a model of channelopathy. This survey reviews recent developments in the research literature on DS, focusing on the clinical course, as well as its genetic causes.

We report on an 18-year-old male patient with dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA) (number of CAG repeats: 68) with progressive myoclonus epilepsy (PME), who showed a dramatic response to levetiracetam in terms of the intensity of myoclonus. He began to have convulsive seizures and myoclonus at 7 and 10 years of age, respectively, and his intelligence deteriorated from 12 years of age. EEG showed multifocal and diffuse spike-and-wave complexes. His convulsive seizures were suppressed from 13 years of age.
At 17 years of age, the patient showed gradual intensification of erratic segmental positive myoclonus as well as frequent atonic falls that were probably attributable to negative myoclonus. Back averaging of EEG data revealed cortical discharges associated with positive myoclonus. Photosensitive myoclonic seizures were also observed. The administration of levetiracetam alleviated positive myoclonus and suppressed atonic falls, resulting in a remarkable improvement in the patient's quality of daily life.
Reports on the efficacy of levetiracetam for myoclonus in DRPLA are still rare, though its effect on PM E is known in the context of other neurological disorders. Thus levetiracetam should be subjected to clinical trials as a means of disabling myoclonus in DRPLA. (C) 2011 The Japanese Society of Child Neurology. Published by Elsevier B.V.

Epileptic spasms in older children have increasingly been recognized as a distinct seizure type and subset of these patients are considered for surgical resection. This study compares histopathology and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), especially focusing the difference between the cortical grey matter and the subcortical white matter to understand the extensive epileptic brain in patients with epileptic spasms. We examined 22 patients consisting of 11 patients with epileptic spasms and 11 with partial seizures. Scalp video electroencephalography (EEG) showed interictal generalized epileptiform discharges (9 patients with epileptic spasms vs. 1 with partial seizures) and ictal generalized epileptiform discharges (10 vs. 3). We found MRI abnormalities in a single lobe (6 vs. 7) and multiple lobes (2 vs. 1). Surgical resections were performed across multiple lobes (9 vs. 2), comparing within a single lobe (2 vs. 9), (p < 0.001). Histopathology showed abnormal cortical organizations as FCD (2 vs. 5) and microdysgenesis (4 vs. 4), normal (4 vs. 1). Two patients with epileptic spasms showed hyaline proteoplasmic astrocytopathy. There were heterotopic neurons (10 vs. 10), cluster of oligodendroglia (8 vs. 7), balloon cells (2 vs. 5) and blurred myelination (1 vs. 4), in the white matter. Seizure-free outcomes were seen in seven patients with epileptic spasms (64%) and four with partial seizures (36%). The multilobar epileptogenic zones existed in patients with epileptic spasms, compared with the focal epileptogenic zone in patients with partial seizures. There was no difference of MRI and histopathology findings in cortex and subcortical white matter between two groups. (C) 2011 The Japanese Society of Child Neurology. Published by Elsevier B.V.

Objective: We determined whether kurtosis analysis of intracranial electroencephalogram (EEG) can estimate the localization of the epileptogenic zone.
Methods: We analyzed 29 pediatric epilepsy patients who underwent intracranial EEG before focal resective surgery. We localized the brain regions with high kurtosis, the seizure onset zone (SOZ) and the regions with high-rate, high-amplitude and long-duration interictal paroxysms >= 20 Hz. We tested correlations between the surgical resection of those regions and post-surgical seizure outcome, and correlations between kurtosis and the rate/amplitude/duration of interictal paroxysms.
Results: The resection of the regions with high kurtosis correlated with 1-year post-surgical seizure outcome (p = 0.028) but not with 2-year outcome. Kurtosis showed more significant correlation with 1-year seizure outcome than the SOZ and the rate/amplitude/duration of interictal paroxysms. Kurtosis showed positive, independent correlations with the amplitude and duration of interictal paroxysms (p < 0.0001) but not with the rate (p = 0.4).
Conclusions: The regions with high kurtosis provide more reliable information to predict seizure outcome than the SOZ and the regions with high-rate/amplitude and long-duration interictal paroxysms. Kurtosis reflects combined effects of the amplitude and duration of the interictal paroxysms.
Significance: High kurtosis suggests the regions with acquired ictogenicity within the irritative zone. (C) 2011 International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology. Published by Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.

Purpose: High-frequency oscillations (HFOs), termed ripples at 80-200 Hz and fast ripples (FRs) at >200/250 Hz, recorded by intracranial electroencephalography (EEG), may be a valuable surrogate marker for the localization of the epileptogenic zone. We evaluated the relationship of the resection of focal brain regions containing high-rate interictal HFOs and the seizure-onset zone (SOZ) determined by visual EEG analysis with the postsurgical seizure outcome, using extraoperative intracranial EEG monitoring in pediatric patients and automated HFO detection.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 28 pediatric epilepsy patients who underwent extraoperative intracranial video-EEG monitoring prior to focal resection. Utilizing the automated analysis, we identified interictal HFOs during 20 min of sleep EEG and determined the brain regions containing high-rate HFOs. We investigated spatial relationships between regions with high-rate HFOs and SOZs. We compared the size of these regions, the surgical resection, and the amount of the regions with high-rate HFOs/SOZs within the resection area with seizure outcome.
Key Findings: Ten patients were completely seizure-free and 18 were not at 2 years after surgery. The brain regions with high-rate ripples were larger than those with high-rate FRs (p = 0.0011) with partial overlap. More complete resection of the regions with high-rate FRs significantly correlated with a better seizure outcome (p = 0.046). More complete resection of the regions with high-rate ripples tended to improve seizure outcome (p = 0.091); however, the resection of SOZ did not influence seizure outcome (p = 0.18). The size of surgical resection was not associated with seizure outcome (p = 0.22-0.39).
Significance: The interictal high-rate FRs are a possible surrogate marker of the epileptogenic zone. Interictal ripples are not as specific a marker of the epileptogenic zone as interictal FRs. Resection of the brain regions with high-rate interictal FRs in addition to the SOZ may achieve a better seizure outcome.

P>Purpose:
We intended to elucidate the whole clinical course of Dravet syndrome (DS) comprehensively, from infancy through adulthood.
Methods:
Subjects were 31 patients with DS (14 with typical DS, and 17 with borderline DS) who were followed from childhood to at least 18 years of age. Their seizures, abilities, and electroencephalography (EEG) findings were investigated and statistically analyzed.
Results:
The clinical findings of the patients with typical DS and those with borderline DS became largely similar in adolescence and adulthood. Seizures were intractable in childhood in all patients, but suppressed in five (16.1%) during follow-up. Thirty-five (87.5%) of the 40 apparently generalized convulsive seizures that were captured by ictal EEG recording at 7 years of age or later were of focal origin. The seizure-free outcomes were significantly correlated with the experience of < 3 episodes of convulsive status epilepticus, and also with disappearance of spikes on the follow-up EEGs. Mental outcomes involving less severe intellectual disability were correlated with the presence of occipital alpha rhythms in the background activity of the follow-up EEGs. Mean age at the recording of the follow-up EEGs was 23.8 years.
Discussion:
Prevention of the occurrence of convulsive status epilepticus was indicated to be critically important for the improvement of seizure prognosis in DS.

【目的】結節性硬化症(TSC)は多臓器に過誤組織を発生する疾患である。したがって多くの診療科が協力して診療に当たる必要がある。そこで、その実態を把握するために以下の検討を行った。【方法】対象は岡山大学病院小児神経科を受診したTSC症例のうち複数年にわたって来院歴のある38例とした。各臓器のフォローアップ状況を小児群と成人群に分けて後方視的に検討した。【結果】小児期には比較的どの臓器も確実にフォローが行われていた。成人群では脳の画像のフォローは上衣下巨星細胞腫(SEGA)のある症例も含めて不完全であった。腎臓は、成人群では異常のあった7例においても5年以上フォローがされていなかった。肺はリンパ脈管筋腫(LAM)の合併率の高くなる18歳以上の女性においても検査率は50%であった。心臓は小児群では横紋筋腫のある12例中10例が1〜3年ごとのエコー検査を受けていたが、一方で伝導障害に関しての心電図の施行は全年齢でおろそかであった。【結論】欧米でのガイドラインに照らし合わせてみると、フォローアップ体制は特に成人群において不完全であることが明らかとなった。TSCボードなどの多数科の医療連携体制の場が必要と考えられた。(著者抄録)
