What is an epileptic syndrome?

UC Davis Comprehensive Epilepsy Program - FAQ about epilepsy
Until recently, neurologists classified the types of seizures, such as focal or generalized convulsive. The past few decades, research has leaned toward determining if the patient has an epileptic syndrome, or a specific type occurring under certain conditions. These conditions could include a particular clinical setting at a certain age with other accompanying findings like radiological tests and EEGs. Absence--or petit mal--seizures can illustrate the value of a syndrome approach.

What are the different types of diabetic retinopathy?

Diabetic Retinopathy FAQ - AllAboutVision.com
Diabetic retinopathy is classified as either nonproliferative (background) or proliferative. Nonproliferative retinopathy is the early stage, where small retinal blood vessels break and leak. In proliferative retinopathy, new blood vessels grow abnormally within the retina. This new growth can cause scarring or retinal detachment, which can lead to vision loss. The new blood vessels may also grow or bleed into the vitreous humor, the transparent gel filling the eyeball in front of the retina.

The ranking of different foods based on their glycemic response resulted in the creation of the glycemic index (GI).
