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.

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.

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Ketogenic dietary therapies (KDTs) are the treatment of choice for Glut1 Deficiency Syndrome (Glut1DS), providing dietary ketones as an alternative fuel to the brain and effectively controlling seizures. Recent evidence indicates insufficient seizure control in Glut1DS patients despite adequate KDT and ketosis.

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Ketogenic dietary therapies (KDTs) are increasingly used worldwide as a non‐pharmacological treatment for epilepsy, including among people of childbearing potential. In many cases, KDTs allow for the reduction of antiseizure medications (ASMs) and lower drug exposure during pregnancy.

An Exploratory Analysis of Pharmaceutical Price Disparities and Their Implications Among Six Developed Nations [PDF]
In our study of 43 drugs, prescription drug prices in several wealthy nations (Australia, Canada, France, Germany, and the U.K.) were much lower than in the U.S. on average, well below relative per capita GDP. There was relatively little difference among

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Objective The pathogenesis of epilepsy is closely associated with neuronal synaptic plasticity. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) can regulate various biological processes by binding to specific sequences on target genes. This study employs bioinformatics, molecular dynamics, and experimental approaches to investigate the mechanism by which MiR‐30a‐5p treats

Dietary and biomarker‐guided strategies as supportive measures in the fragile X syndrome
Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.Abstract The fragile X syndrome (FXS) is an inherited neurodevelopmental disorder that primarily affects males, often resulting in an IQ below 55, while about two‐thirds of females also experience intellectual disability. Physical features may include an elongated face, prominent ears, finger joint laxity, and enlarged testes in males.
