  1. Seizure frequency and risk of cognitive impairment in people living with epilepsy in a sub-urban community in South Eastern Nigeria

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 45 out of 100. Journal of clinical neuroscience : official journal of the Neurosurgical Society of Australasia 2018-11-13 Cognitive tests and assessment

    This study is aimed at assessing the impact of seizure frequency on the cognitive performance of epileptic adult patients in a rural community in South Eastern Nigeria.

  2. Seizure protein 6 and its homolog seizure 6-like protein are physiological substrates of BACE1 in neurons

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. Molecular neurodegeneration 2016-10-05 Genetics

    This study demonstrates that SEZ6 and SEZ6L are physiological BACE1 substrates in the murine brain and suggests that sSEZ6 and sSEZ6L levels in CSF are suitable markers to monitor BACE1 inhibition in mice.

  3. Alzheimer's disease and Down syndrome rodent models exhibit audiogenic seizures

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Journal of Alzheimer's disease : JAD 2010-01-01 Treatments

    Amyloid-beta protein precursor (AbetaPP) is overexpressed in Alzheimer's disease (AD), Down syndrome (DS), autism, and fragile X syndrome.
