Abstract Objective Antiseizure medications are approved based on clinical trials that demonstrate their efficacy as measured by reductions in seizure frequency (SF). When designing these trials, trialists must select inclusion criteria where SF can be reliably measured to maintain statistical power.

Seizure forecasting with epilepsy cycles: On the causality of forecasting pipelines
Abstract Objective Seizure risk is modulated by multiscale brain rhythms. Previous studies using cycles in electroencephalography, heart rate, and wearable data suggest the possibility of forecasting seizures days in advance. However, they commonly rely on methods requiring (days of) information from time points beyond the moment of forecast (noncausal

Gut‐microbiota‐brain Axis and post‐traumatic epilepsy
Abstract There has been growing evidence that perturbations in gut‐microbiota‐brain axis (GMBA) are involved in mechanisms of chronic sequelae of traumatic brain injury (TBI). This review discusses the connection between GMBA and post‐traumatic epilepsy (PTE), the latter being a common outcome of TBI.
