Patterns of seizure frequency reduction in clinical trial participants with lower baseline seizure frequency

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Inclusion and exclusion criteria of clinical trials for seizures aim to select representative participants with a high enough seizure frequency to evaluate the efficacy of treatment in a relatively short double‐blind period. To inform the selection of seizure frequency‐based inclusion criteria, we evaluated the association between ...

Interictal and seizure‐onset scalp electroencephalographic patterns in malformations of cortical development

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Malformations of cortical development (MCDs) are a frequent cause of drug‐resistant epilepsy and a common indication for resective epilepsy surgery. As magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) lacks sensitivity for subtle MCDs, supplemental diagnostic tools are needed.

Women with epilepsy: Evidence‐based counseling across the lifespan

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Women with epilepsy (WWE) encounter distinct and evolving challenges across the lifespan that require clinical management extending beyond seizure control alone. Although awareness of sex‐specific aspects of epilepsy has increased, important gaps remain in their integration into routine care.

Ranking of antiseizure medications in a panel of focal seizure models predicts their comparative efficacy in clinical add‐on trials in drug‐resistant focal epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Most antiseizure medications (ASMs) have been discovered by testing in animal models, which are generally thought to predict antiseizure activity in patients. However, it is not known whether any of these models (or a combination of models) can predict whether a novel ASM exhibits higher clinical efficacy in focal drug‐resistant ...

Delayed and deferred surgery associated with cenobamate use in people with drug‐resistant focal epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Cenobamate has been shown to be an effective antiseizure medication for some patients with drug‐resistant focal epilepsy being considered for epilepsy surgery. This retrospective single‐center study evaluated whether surgery was obtained within 12 months for patients who received cenobamate as a treatment during the presurgical ...

Sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors and the risk of late onset epilepsy: A real‐world cohort study

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Late onset epilepsy (LOE) is associated with substantial morbidity. Sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) may exert neuroprotective effects. This study evaluated the association between SGLT2i and risk of LOE among older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Gut‐microbiota‐brain Axis and post‐traumatic epilepsy

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
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.
