Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Global neuropsychological impairments with intellectual disability (ID) seem to play a major role in the occurrence of psychogenic non-epileptic seizures (PNES) in epilepsy. Conversely, the pathophysiology underlying PNES combined with epilepsy without ID remains elusive. We investigated the neuropsychiatric profile in 26 average intelligent subjects (15 women, mean age: 40.04 ± 13.53 years) with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) plus PNES (TLE + PNES), compared with 28 with TLE and 22 with PNES alone, matched for age and sex. All subjects underwent neuropsychiatric assessment, including Beck Depression Inventory-2 (BDI-2), State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), Dissociative Experiences Scale (DES), Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20), Traumatic Experience Checklist (TEC), and cognitive evaluation. TLE + PNES and PNES groups shared a similar psychiatric profile with higher levels of depression (BDI-2, P < 0.001), anxiety (STAI-S, P < 0.001; STAI-T, P < 0.001), dissociation (DES, P < 0.001), and alexithymia (TAS, P = 0.005) scales than the TLE group. Nonetheless, like individuals with TLE, patients with TLE + PNES had a lower rate of a potentially traumatizing event than PNES. The very low rate of potentially traumatizing event in subjects with TLE + PNES leads us to hypothesize that epilepsy itself may be the psychophysiological distress that contributed to PNES. A psychopathological assessment in subjects with epilepsy is crucial to identify those more likely to develop PNES.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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.
