Abstract EN
Sleep is probably one of the most important physiological factors implicated both in epileptic seizures and interictal epileptiform discharges.
The neurophysiology concerning the relationship between sleep and epilepsy is well described in the literature; however, the pathological events that culminate in the seizures are poorly explored.
The present paper intends to make a rigorous approach to the main mechanisms involved in this reciprocal relation.
Knowledge of sleep and sleep deprivation effects in epilepsy stands as crucial in the understanding of how seizures are produced, their possible lines of treatment, and future research.
