Abstract: To investigate the effect of interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) on plasma prolactin (PRL) level, we studied 18 epileptic patients with complex partial seizures (CPS) who did not experience clinical or subclinical ictal events during all-night monitoring with polygraphic recording and video imaging. The density of IEDs peaked during non-REM stages and was significantly reduced during REM stage. Mean plasma PRL concentrations in epileptic patients, when sampled at 30-min intervals, showed a moderate but significant elevation during non-REM (p less than 0.001) and awake stages (p less than 0.005), but not during REM stage, when compared with 10 nonepileptic control subjects studied in a similar fashion. The data obtained in this physiologically controlled environment indicate that the cumulative effect of IEDs may modify PRL regulatory mechanisms, resulting in a modest elevation of plasma concentrations independent of ictal discharges.
Which is the apt title for the abstract? option1: Effect of interictal epileptiform discharges on nocturnal plasma prolactin concentrations in epileptic patients with complex partial seizures. option2: Galactosemia caused by generalized uridine diphosphate galactose-4-epimerase deficiency [letter]
A:
Effect of interictal epileptiform discharges on nocturnal plasma prolactin concentrations in epileptic patients with complex partial seizures.
