Add‐on treatment with vinpocetine reduces seizure frequency and improves comorbidities in patients with loss‐of‐function γ‐aminobutyric acid type A receptor variants

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The semisynthetic compound vinpocetine has gained attention as a potential precision medicine for developmental and epileptic encephalopathies caused by loss‐of‐function (LoF) variants in γ‐aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptor genes. As a positive allosteric modulator of GABAA receptors, case reports suggest that vinpocetine can

Pediatric epilepsy surgery: Global survey of referral and presurgical evaluation practices

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Pediatric epilepsy surgery is well established, but contemporary global data on referral and presurgical evaluation practices are lacking. This International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) Pediatric Epilepsy Surgery Task Force study provides an updated overview of current trends and regional differences. Methods Group‐level data were

Are comorbid sleep disorders associated with higher risk for sudden unexpected death in epilepsy? Observations from a Canadian epilepsy clinic

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Pooled mortality is nearly three times higher in people with epilepsy (PWE). Approximately 80% of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) events occur during sleep, and primary sleep disorders are prevalent in the general population and PWE.

Responsive stimulation of the thalamus for idiopathic generalized epilepsy: Results of the randomized controlled NAUTILUS trial through 18 months

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study was undertaken to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of responsive thalamic stimulation as adjunctive therapy for drug‐resistant idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE) with generalized tonic–clonic seizures (GTCSs). Methods NAUTILUS is a prospective, multicenter, single‐blind, randomized sham‐controlled pivotal trial ...

Comparison of volume‐ and surface‐based magnetic resonance imaging morphometry algorithms in the detection of focal cortical dysplasia

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Detection of focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) remains a major challenge in presurgical epilepsy diagnostics. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) morphometry increasingly improves lesion detection and postsurgical outcomes. The volume‐based Morphometric Analysis Program, version 2018 (MAP18) with integrated artificial neural network and ...
