Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
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.

Multimodal approach to characterize surgically removed epileptogenic zone from patients with focal drug‐resistant epilepsy: From operating room to wet lab

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective We have established a comprehensive sample handling protocol designed for the multiscale assessment of epileptogenic tissue. This protocol aims to identify novel therapeutic targets and enhance the diagnosis and stratification of patients with drug‐resistant epilepsy, thereby optimizing their treatment with anti‐seizure medications ...

Epilepsy surgery: From bench to the clinics

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Recent advances in epilepsy surgery in patients with intractable epilepsy make it possible to study the mechanism of epilepsy in human brains. However, the true extent and propagation of each epileptogenic area from the epileptogenic focus in each patient is still difficult to perform “epilepsy cure” by surgery.

Distinct medial temporal volumetric signatures in extra‐medial temporal lobe lesional epilepsy

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To quantify amygdala and hippocampal volumetric asymmetries in patients with drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) and extra‐medial temporal lesions (EMTLs) and to assess the prevalence of structural alterations relative to drug‐resistant temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), extratemporal lobe epilepsy (ETLE), and healthy individuals.

Clock gene dysregulation in epilepsy: A systematic review

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epileptic seizures show a rhythmic pattern, being more frequent at particular times of the day (e.g., only occurring during sleep), suggesting a role of the circadian rhythm. Clock genes regulate the circadian rhythm and might be involved in the pathophysiology of epilepsy.

Areas of research priorities in epilepsy: A position paper of the European Reference Network for Rare and Complex Epilepsies, EpiCARE

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To define and articulate research priorities in epilepsy identified by the European Reference Network for Rare and Complex Epilepsies (ERN EpiCARE), addressing key unmet needs across the spectrum of rare and complex epilepsies. Methods This position paper was developed through a structured collaborative process involving patient ...

Clinical outcomes and learning curve of MRgLITT system for drug‐resistant epilepsy in China: A single‐center retrospective study

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Magnetic resonance‐guided laser interstitial thermal therapy (MRgLITT) is a minimally invasive technique that allows for real‐time magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) monitoring and precise ablation of epileptogenic lesions. This study reports our initial clinical experience with a domestically developed MRgLITT system in patients with ...

Semiology in spontaneous versus cortical stimulation‐induced seizures during SEEG: A within‐patient comparison study

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective We aimed to study the concordance of seizure semiology in direct electrical stimulation‐induced seizures (SIS) compared to spontaneous seizures during stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) and to report on patient‐level variables associated with habitual and atypical SIS.
