Objective To investigate the incidence of adult epilepsy patients with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and the characteristics of ADHD subtypes, and to explore the correlations between several epilepsy-related factors with ADHD.Methods According to corresponding inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria, 156 adult epilepsy patients who visited to Neurology Clinic of Zhejiang Hospital and the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from March 2014 to October 2014 were enrolled as a study group to enter this test.Eighty-six nomal adults were enrolled as the control group who matched for the age, gender, inteligence quotient with the study group.Using the chi-square test and Logistic regression analysis and the other statistical methods to analyze the phenomenon of ADHD in adults with epilepsy and the factors that may contribute to the phenomenon.Results The detection rate of ADHD in 156 adult patients with epilepsy was 26.9％ (42/156), significantly higher than that in the heathly control group which was 4.7％ (4/86, x2 =17.862, P ＜ 0.05).Symptomatic epilepsy and the electroencephalogram showed multifocal discharge had higher detection rate of comorbid ADHD and the difference was statistically significant (The detection rate of idiophathic epilepsy was 22.1％ (21/95), symptomatic epilepsy was 46.7％ (14/30), cryptogenic epilepsy was 22.6％ (7/31), x2 =7.362, P =0.025.The detection rate of frontal epileptiform discharges was 30.6％ (11/36), temporal area was 25.9％ (14/54), central area was 18.2％ (4/22), multifocal epileptiform discharges was 46.2％ (12/26), the normal was 1/18, x2 =10.187, P =0.037).The results of binary Logistic regression analysis showed that epilepsy age of onset (B =-0.889, P =0.049) was possibly an important factor for epilepsy with ADHD.Conclusions The risk of ADHD occurred in adults with epilepsy is higher than that in the healthy adults and attention-deficit is the common subtype.The etiology, age of onset and electroencephalogram features of adults with epilepsy may be associated with the occurrence of ADHD.

Objective To investigate the sleep problems and related affecting factors of primary or possibly symptomatic school-aged children with epilepsy.Methods 54 epilepsy children(7 to 12 years old) and the general 54 healthy children whose gender and age were strictly matched with epilepsy group were investigated by using the chinese version of CSHQ.Results ① The total CSHQ score and 6 subscale scores (bedtime resistance, sleep onset delay,sleep anxiety, night wakings, parasomnias, and daytime sleepiness)were significantly higher in the epilepsy group(P<0.05).② In the epilepsy group, different age groups had statistical difference in the total CSHQ score and 4 subscale scores(sleep resistance, sleep onset delay, sleep duration and sleep anxiety) (P<0.05).The seizure controlled group and the uncontrolled group had statistical difference in the total CSHQ score and all subscale scores, except sleep onset delay(P<0.05).There were statistically significant differences in the total CSHQ score and all subscale scores, except sleep-disordered breathing in different seizure frequency groups(P<0.05).Different seizure type groups had statistical difference in the total CSHQ score and 4 subscale scores(sleep resistance, sleep duration, sleep anxiety and daytime sleepiness)(P<0.05).Different seizure time groups had statistical difference in the total CSHQ score and 5 subscale scores(sleep resistance, sleep onset delay, sleep duration, sleep anxiety and night waking)(P<0.05).Monotherapy group and polytherapy group had statistical difference in the total CSHQ score and 4 subscale scores(sleep onset delay, night waking, parasomnias and daytime sleepiness) (P<0.05).③ Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the main influencing factors of the total CSHQ score and some subscale scores were gender, age, control of seizure, frequency of seizure, type of seizure, time of seizure and the number of drug taking.Conclusion Children with epilepsy compared with healthy children are more likely to have sleep problems, and the occurrence of sleep problems may be related to many factors.

Objective To explore the features and relevant factors of ecological executive function in adults with id-iopathic or probably symptomatic epilepsy. Methods 120 adults with idiopathic or probably symptomatic epilepsy were compared strictly with 120 healthy controls of the same gender, age , marriage and educational degree. The differences in ecological executive function were compared between the two groups with the Behavior Rating Inven-tory of Executive Function-adult version( BRIEF-A);apply multiple stepwise linear regression analysis was used to explore the correlations between epileptic factors with projects of BRIEF-A. Results Compared with controls,the epileptics yielded higher scores significantly on all projects of BRIEF-A(P<0. 05):global executive composite,be-havioral regulation index,inhibition,shift,emotion control, self-monitoring, metacognition index,initiation, working memory,plan,organization,task monitor. Multiple stepwise linear regression analysis showed that four clinical fea-tures videlicet seizure type, seizure frequency, epilepsy control and antiepileptic drugs were closely related to BRIEF-A while factors such as course of disease,gender,age,marriage,educational degree,initial age were not rele-vant to BRIEF-A. Conclusion The ecological executive function of adults with idiopathic or probably symptomatic epilepsy impairment is affected by seizure type,seizure frequency,epilepsy control and antiepileptic drugs.

Objective To investigate the effects of GM1 and Edaravone on expressions of PDK1,GSK3βprotein in ischemic penumbra after local cerebral ischemia/reperfusion in intraluminal thread occlusion of the middle cerebral artery rats and its related mechanism. Methods The local cerebral ischemia/reperfusion model was established by intraluminal thread occlusion of the middle cerebral artery. The animals were randomly divided into pseudo surgery group,model group,GM1 group, Edaravone group and GM1 and Edaravone group. Using the techniques of immu-no-histochemical sraining,the expressions of PDK1,GSK3β protein were observed at 3,7 and 14 days in ischemic penumbra. Results In ischemic penumbra,3,7,14 days each time point,a value and positive unit of the PDK1 protein expression in GM1 and Edaravone groups were higher than those in GM1 or Edaravone groups(P<0. 05), model groups(P<0. 01);a value and positive unit of the GSK3βprotein expression in GM1 and Edaravone groups were lower than those in GM1 or Edaravone groups(P<0. 01),model groups (P<0. 01). Conclusion GM1 and Edaravone resist neural cell apoptosis,regulate PI3K /Akt signal transduction pathway by enhancing PDK1 protein and restraining GSK3β expression after local cerebral ischemia /reperfusion in artery rats.
