Predicting epilepsy after new onset refractory status epilepticus due to autoimmune encephalitis: The DAME score

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study aimed to identify risk factors and develop a predictive scoring system for autoimmune‐associated epilepsy in subjects with autoimmune encephalitis presenting with new onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE). Methods This retrospective, multicenter, cohort study included subjects who presented with NORSE at the onset of

Finding the Cause of Psychosis: A Challenging Case of Anti-NMDAR Encephalitis

Case Reports in Medicine, 2020
An autoimmune response causing inflammation in the brain tissue is called autoimmune encephalitis. Autoantibodies directed against N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors cause a type of autoimmune encephalitis resulting in memory loss, confusion, and ...

Epilepsy syndromes classification

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy syndromes are distinct electroclinical entities which have been recently defined by the International League Against Epilepsy Nosology and Definitions Task Force. Each syndrome is associated with “a characteristic cluster of clinical and EEG features, often supported by specific etiologic findings”.

Late‐onset unexplained epilepsy as a risk factor for cognitive impairment and dementia: Protocol for a multi‐center prospective longitudinal observational study (ELUCID)

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Late‐onset unexplained epilepsy (LoUE), defined as epilepsy onset after age 55 without an obvious cause, is an important risk factor for dementia. Studies have shown that 10%–25% of individuals with LoUE develop dementia within 3–4 years following their first seizure.

High albumin level is a predictor of favorable response to immunotherapy in autoimmune encephalitis

Scientific Reports, 2018
There is no known biomarker that predicts the response to immune therapy in autoimmune synaptic encephalitis. Thus, we investigated serum albumin as a prognostic biomarker of early immune therapies in patients with autoimmune encephalitis.

Distinct medial temporal volumetric signatures in extra‐medial temporal lobe lesional epilepsy

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To quantify amygdala and hippocampal volumetric asymmetries in patients with drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) and extra‐medial temporal lesions (EMTLs) and to assess the prevalence of structural alterations relative to drug‐resistant temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), extratemporal lobe epilepsy (ETLE), and healthy individuals.

The causal relationship between systemic lupus erythematosus and juvenile myoclonic epilepsy: A Mendelian randomization study and mediation analysis

Ibrain, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 98-105, Spring 2025.
Mendelian randomization (MR) studies were conducted using the inverse‐variance weighted (IVW) method, MR‐Egger and weighted median on juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME), and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) data from the Integrative Epidemiology Unit (IEU) Open genome‐wide association study (GWAS) database and the International League Against Epilepsy

Anti‐NMDA receptor autoimmune encephalitis associated with ovarian teratoma: A case series and literature review

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 169, Issue 1, Page 23-30, April 2025.
Abstract Autoimmune encephalitis is a group of disorders characterized by symptoms of dysfunction of the limbic and extra‐limbic systems that occur in association with antibodies against intracellular antigens, synapses, or proteins located on the surface of nerve cells. Anti‐NMDA (N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate) receptor encephalitis was first described in 2007
