Circadian profiles of focal epileptic seizures: A need for reappraisal
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Circadian rhythm of seizure is underestimated in the study of focal epilepsies. A review of the current literature revealed a clear correlation between cortical epileptogenic focus and the circadian phase of seizure peak occurrence in adult patients. A single diurnal peak at 19:00 was found in seizures originating from the occipital lobe, between 5:00 and 7:00 in frontal lobe seizures, and between 16:00 and 17:00 h in temporal lobe seizures. Two diurnal peaks, between 5:00 and 7:00, and at 23:00 are reported in seizures from the parietal lobe, and between 7:00 to 8:00 and 16:00 to 17:00 in mesial temporal onset seizures. This circadian character of seizure occurrence in focal epilepsies may not be unique to partial seizures since recent clinical and experimental data indicate that generalized seizures also demonstrate circadian effects. The clinical evidence on generalized seizures and epilepsies is not recent, but a formal integration of circadian rhythmicity in our understanding and clinical management of epilepsies may be warranted.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
