β‐Hydroxybutyrate reduces neuronal excitability via GIRK channels
β‐Hydroxybutyrate decreases neuronal excitability by activating GIRK channels through HCAR2 signaling, providing a cellular mechanism that may contribute to the antiseizure effects of the ketogenic diet. Abstract Objective The ketogenic diet is used to treat drug‐resistant epilepsy, yet the molecular mechanisms coupling metabolic state to seizure ...

Abstract Objective Despite elevated risk for epilepsy following traumatic brain injury (TBI), there are limited tools to assess epilepsy risk following TBI using routine clinical data. The objective of this study was to develop and validate a machine learning approach to predict the onset of posttraumatic epilepsy (PTE) over varying time horizons ...

Abnormal KCC2 expression and function in a mouse model of epilepsy and tuberous sclerosis complex
Abstract Objective Drug‐resistant epilepsy is a common, severe manifestation of the genetic disorder tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). Although significant mechanistic and therapeutic advances have been made in TSC, treatments for seizures remain largely ineffective.

Could calcitonin gene‐related peptide inhibitors prevent status epilepticus?
Abstract Calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP) inhibitors modulate pain and neuroinflammation, a recognized contributor to epileptogenesis and status epilepticus (SE). We examined the association between CGRP inhibitor use and SE hospitalization in epilepsy patients with comorbid migraine.

Abstract Objective Interictal electroencephalographic (EEG) activities are generally considered asymptomatic. Pulse wave amplitude drop (PWAD) is a marker of autonomic nervous system (ANS) reactivity linked to cardiovascular risk. Generalized paroxysmal fast activity (GPFA) is a major EEG pattern in different epileptic conditions.
