Abstract:

Sleep and epilepsy have a complex interrelationship that is influenced by various factors, including the distinct stages of sleep. Non-rapid eye movement sleep promotes epileptic activity, while rapid eye movement sleep suppresses it. Seizures can be triggered by sleep, while sleep deprivation increases seizure susceptibility. Epilepsy disrupts sleep architecture and quality, leading to sleep disturbances and comorbidities, like sleep apnea and restless legs syndrome. Excessive daytime sleepiness and fatigue can result from epilepsy and the sedating effects of antiseizure medications. Sleep-re

Abstract:

AbstractThe neurophysiology of the brain is complicated and nuanced. It is responsible for the normal sleep/wake states that every person experiences, and for the changes in brain neurophysiology that result in epileptic seizures and in disorders of sleep. It is therefore not surprising that sleep, sleep disorders, and epilepsy interact on many levels. The sleep state influences the detection of interictal epileptiform discharges, important for diagnosis of epilepsy. The state of sleep also influences whether a seizure will occur at a given time, and this differs considerably for various epile

Abstract:

This review focuses on the interrelation between clinical and electrophysiological manifestations of various epilepsy forms and level of wakefulness or sleep. In case of some epileptic syndromes seizures occur predominantly or solely in sleep. Epilepsy can modify normal sleep patterns; on the other hand, sleep influences interictal epileptiform discharges, increasing their number and changing their morphology and spreading depending on sleep stage. Although interictal discharges in focal epilepsy are more common in sleep than in wakefulness, discharge distribution in generalized epilepsy is mo

Abstract:

In this review, we attempted to analyze literature data on various aspects of the complex interactions between sleep and epilepsy. Normal sleep in an adult occurs in cycles that last an average of 90-100 minutes each, although infants and children are usually shorter by about 60 minutes. One cycle includes an evolution from (NREM) N1, N2 and N3 stages with progression in the depth of sleep and an increase in the amount of slow wave activity, followed by REM sleep, characterized by faster and more desynchronized activity similar to wakefulness, repeating 4-5 times per night.

Abstract:

Zwischen Epilepsie und Schlaf bestehen Wechselwirkungen, die schon lange Zeit bekannt sind. Die Einflüsse moderner Antiepileptika auf den Schlaf, aber auch die von primären Schlafstörungen und von nächtlichen Anfällen selbst stellen jedoch eine besondere Herausforderung für den klinisch tätigen Epileptologen dar. Die klinische Manifestation nächtlicher Störungen stellt oft schwierige differentialdiagnostische Aufgaben, die eine sorgfältige Anamnese und polysomnographisch-neurophysiologische Abklärung in einem Schlaflabor unentbehrlich machen.

To date, many sleep-related and awake-associated epilepsy syndromes have been described. The relationship between sleep and epilepsy has led to the recognition of polysomnographic testing as an important diagnostic tool in the diagnosis of epilepsy.

The importance of sleep has been reported for decades. Epilepsy is a heterogeneous disorder comprising multiple elements that might influence sleep and wakefulness. Notably, animal studies show disruptions of the circadian molecular system in different models of epilepsy, along with altered rest–activity and other circadian rhythms. So far, studies of molecular circadian systems in people with epilepsy are lacking, prompting further research. Seizures—the primary and most debilitating symptom of epilepsy—and interictal activity disrupt regular sleep and sleep–wake rhythms. Alterations in one’s

Abstract:

The relationship between sleep and epilepsy is bidirectional. Certain epilepsy syndromes predominantly or exclusively manifest during sleep, with seizures frequently originating from non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep. Interictal epileptiform discharges observed on electroencephalograms are most likely to be activated during the deep NREM sleep stage known as N3. Conversely, epileptiform discharges, anti-seizure medications (ASMs), as well as other anti-seizure therapies can exert detrimental effects on sleep architecture. Moreover, the co-occurrence of sleep disorders has the potential to ex
