The effect of cortical and subcortical parcel volumes on postictal generalized <scp>EEG</scp> suppression
Some people with epilepsy show a period of very low brain activity after a seizure, called PGES, which may be linked to a higher risk of sudden death. We analyzed brain scans from 100 people with epilepsy and found that two brain regions-the right thalamus and the precuneus-were different in those with PGES. These findings may help doctors understand which patients are more at risk after seizures and how to better protect them.
