Abstract Infantile epilepsy spasms syndrome (IESS), formerly known as infantile spasms or West Syndrome, is a severe epilepsy syndrome affecting about 3 in 10,000 newborns in the United States. Characterized by clusters of epileptic spasms, interictal hypsarrhythmia, and developmental delays, IESS has diverse causes, including structural‐metabolic ...

Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms
Abstract Approximately half of all cases of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) do not respond to vigabatrin and hormonal therapies. There is no clear consensus as to the second‐line therapy for IESS. Ketogenic diet (KD) has emerged as an effective treatment for certain drug‐resistant epilepsies and in many cases of IESS.

A Lactation Hormone of the Adrenal Cortex.
One of us1 showed that adrenalectomized rats could bear young if treated with cortin. No attempt was made to raise the young. Carr2 found that cortical extract made according to the Swingle and Pfiffner method did not support lactation. Swingle and Pfiffner3 have recently shown that their extract will support lactation in the dog.Extract made according
