PROBLEM: Question: Do interictal epileptiform discharges have an independent association with cognitive impairment in children with lesional epilepsy?
Answer: Overall, IED effects on cognition were of a magnitude similar to lesional influences or drug effects (topiramate use). This study demonstrates an association between IEDs and cognitive dysfunction, independent of the underlying focal brain pathology.

SOLUTION: yes

PROBLEM: Question: Does patellar taping change the amplitude of electromyographic activity of the vasti in a stair stepping task?
Answer: The results of this study indicate that the positive clinical effects of medially directed therapeutic tape are not due to changes in EMG amplitude of the vasti muscle. Thus other effects such as changes in timing of contraction of the vasti are more likely candidates for the mechanism of efficacy.

SOLUTION: no

PROBLEM: Question: Is the Prevalence of Nodular Regenerative Hyperplasia in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Patients Treated with Thioguanine Associated with Clinically Significant Liver Disease?
Answer: The prevalence of NRH was 6% in liver biopsies obtained from IBD patients treated with thioguanine. Histopathological irregularities including NRH were not associated with clinically significant findings over the period of observation.

SOLUTION:
no
