Significance of lateralization of upper limb automatisms in temporal lobe epilepsy: a quantitative movement analysis.

abstract：:Nonconvulsive status epilepticus (SE) accounts for approximately one-quarter of all cases of SE. The actual proportion may be higher because patients with nonconvulsive SE may go unidentified. This disorder may be divided into generalized (absence) or partial (complex partial) forms. Nonconvulsive SE may occur de novo...
