Polypharmacy with anticonvulsants: focus on synergism

, 1997
For almost 20 years, anticonvulsant monotherapy has been regarded as the ideal method of management of epilepsy. This line of thought, while true, has mutated into a general view of polypharmacy with anticonvulsants as a sign of therapeutic failure ...

Status epilepticus: Updates on mechanisms and treatments

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Status epilepticus (SE) consists of prolonged, self‐sustaining seizures and is a common neurological emergency that causes respiratory compromise and neuronal injury. Without prompt treatment, the seizures can become resistant to benzodiazepines, leading to the progressive evolution of established, refractory, and super‐refractory SE.

Highly enantioselective synthesis of 3-cycloalkanone-3-hydroxy-2-oxindoles, potential anticonvulsants

, 2010
Highly enantioselective catalytic synthesis of 3-cycloalkanone-3-hydroxy-2-oxindoles was achieved by using primary-tertiary diamine-Brønsted acid catalyst in both organic medium and aqueous medium.

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.

The gut microbiome and drug‐resistant epilepsy: Microbiome–antiseizure medication interactions and implications for pharmacoresistance

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) affects approximately one‐third of patients with epilepsy and represents a major unmet clinical need. While traditional hypotheses of pharmacoresistance have focused on alterations in drug targets, efflux transporter overexpression, and intrinsic disease severity, the gut microbiome has recently emerged as a ...

Genetic developmental and epileptic encephalopathies in adulthood: Gaps in evidence and care

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) are a heterogeneous group of the most severe epilepsies, characterized by seizure onset and neurodevelopmental delay in infancy or childhood, often with additional neurological and systemic comorbidities.
