About the Book

Research on sleep has been of special interest during the last decade for practical as well as theoretical reasons. Electroencephalographic investigations have been of striking importance because the depth of sleep can be determined exactly by this method. This extensively revised edition has been updated and two new chapters added. The neurophysiological basis of epileptic activity introduces the book, followed by studies on the influence of sleep on the epileptic animal Papio papio, and comprehensive details of automated methods of integrated sleep analysis. The activating effect of sleep in epilepsy in general as well as special EEG patterns (spike wave complexes, tonic patterns) and seizure types (Grand mal on awakening, tonic seizures, complex partial seizures, status epilepticus, epileptic encephalopathies, nocturnal paroxysmal dystonia) and the influence of antiepileptic drugs is discussed. Finally, sleep deprivation in general and its importance for the activation of epileptic activity is reported. Subsequent to this, the activation effect of sleep without and with sleep deprivation is compared.

Table of Contents:
1. The neurophysiological basis of epileptic activity: a condensed overview (E.-J. Speckmann and C.E. Elger). 2. Epileptic manifestations and influence on sleep in the baboon Papio papio (R. Naquet, T. Tanaka and C. Cepeda). 3. Historical aspects of sleep and epilepsy (P. Passouant). 4. Sleep and epileptic activity (G.F. Rossi, G. Colicchio, P. Pola and R. Roselli). 5. The enforced nap: a simple effective method of inducing sleep activation in epileptics (H. Gastaut, M. Gomez-Almanzar and M. Taury). 6. Awakening epilepsy (`Aufwach-Epilepsie') revisited (E. Niedermeyer). 7. Sleep, arousal and electroclinical manifestations of generalized epilepsy with spike wave pattern (P. Halasz). 8. Runs of rapid spikes in sleep - A characteristic EEG expression of generalized malignant epileptic encephalopathies. A conceptual review with new pharmacological data (P. Halasz). 9. Sleep organization and epilepsy (J. Touchon, M. Baldy-Moulinier, M. Billard, A. Besset, J. Cadilhac). 10. Sleep and benign partial epilepsies of childhood (B. Dalla Bernardina, V. Sgro and R. Caraballo). 11. Temporal lobe epilepsy, sleep and arousal: stereo-EEG findings (H.G. Wieser). 12. Circadian distribution of generalized spike-wave-activity in relation to sleep (W. Burr, E. Korner and H. Stefan). 13. Nocturnal paroxysmal dystonia (E. Lugaresi, F. Cirignotta and P. Montagna). 14. Sleep polygraphic findings in epileptic encephalopathies from infancy to adolescence (C.A. Tassinari, R. Michelucci, O. Daniele, C. Dravet, M. Bureau, B. Dalla Bernardina, G. Rubboli, J. Picornell-Darder, F. Vigevano and J. Roger). 15. Influence of antiepileptic drugs on sleep pattern (A.C. Declerck and A. Wauquier). 16. Sleep and prolonged epileptic activity (status epilepticus) (W. Froscher). 17. Integrated sleep analysis with emphasis on automatic methods (Th. Penzel, K. Stephan, St. Kubicki and W.M. Herrmann). 18. General considerations of sleep and sleep deprivation (U. Jovanovi*g3). 19. Short term sleep EEG recordings after partial sleep deprivation as a routine procedure in order to uncover epileptic phenomena: an evaluation of 719 EEG recordings (St. Kubicki, W. Scheuler and H. Wittenbecher). 20. On the nature of the influence of sleep deprivation on the EEG (D. Klingler, H. Tragner and E. Deisenhammer). 21. Sleep and sleep deprivation in epileptology and comparing investigations with both methods (R. Degen and H.-E. Degen). 22. Sleep deprivation, epilepsy and the ability to operate a motor vehicle (J. Kugler, A. Heidl and R. Spatz). 23. Sleep deprivation and epileptological implications (E.A. Rodin). 24. Suppressive effects of enkephalins and REM sleep deprivation on seizures (M.R. Dzoljic, O.E. Ukponmwan, A.A.G. Baas, D.J. v.d. Berg, I. Rupreht and M.M. Dzoljic).
