A novel de novo RNF216 mutation associated with autosomal recessive Huntington-like disorder.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Electroencephalography (EEG) features in the alpha band have been shown to differ between people with epilepsy and healthy controls. Here, in a group of patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (mTLE), we seek to confirm these EEG features, and using simultaneous functional magnetic resonance imaging, we i...
