Non-stenosing Carotid Atherosclerosis and Arterial Stiffness in Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source.

abstract：:Introduction: Eslicarbazepine acetate (ESL) is an antiepileptic drug approved as monotherapy or add-on for the treatment of epilepsy with seizures of focal onset. ESL owns a good profile in terms of efficacy and tolerability, but its effects on EEG activity and connectivity are unknown. The purpose of this study was t...

abstract：:Epilepsy is a neurological disorder in which, in many cases, there is poor pharmacological control of seizures. Nevertheless, it may respond beneficially to alternative treatments such as dietary therapy, like the ketogenic diet or caloric restriction. One of the mechanisms of these diets is to produce a hyperpolariza...
