Ventral anterior thalamic dysfunction distinguishes seizure generalization in temporal lobe epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Focal‐to‐bilateral tonic–clonic seizures (FBTCS) in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) involve thalamocortical networks, yet the functional integrity and role of specific thalamic subregions in seizure generalization remain unclear. In this cross‐sectional study, we investigated whether thalamic subregion functional connectivity patterns ...

Oligogenic inheritance in epilepsy: A systematic exome‐wide analysis

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Genetic factors contribute to the majority of epilepsies, but the exact genetic cause remains unknown in most patients. Incomplete penetrance and variable expressivity are frequent, and recent studies showed a burden of deleterious variants in epilepsy genes, suggesting a role for oligogenic inheritance.

Gut‐microbiota‐brain Axis and post‐traumatic epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia 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.

Epilepsy syndromes classification

open access: yesEpilepsia 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”.

Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms

open access: yesEpilepsia 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.

Expanding the electroclinical spectrum of TANC2‐related disorders: Lennox–Gastaut syndrome and related developmental epileptic phenotypes

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) and epilepsy are often associated. Increasing evidence highlights a pivotal role for pathogenic variants in genes encoding synaptic scaffolding proteins. Within this group, TANC2 has recently been implicated in intellectual developmental disorder with autistic features and language delay, with or ...

Transcriptional signatures of cortical morphometric variability in temporal lobe epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Widespread cognitive deficits in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) are associated with macroscale brain structural changes. However, the correlation between the changes in the cortical morphological similarity of the TLE and gene expression remains unclear.

Response to anti‐seizure medications in children carrying novel or previously reported HCN1 gene variants

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Variants in the HCN1 gene cause a syndrome of childhood epilepsy and developmental disability with a broad phenotypic range. Many affected children manifest with early infantile epileptic encephalopathy (EIEE) and highly drug‐resistant epilepsy.

Colorectal Cancer Screening in Hereditary and Familial High‐Risk Populations: Best Practices and Future Directions

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Colorectal cancer (CRC) remains a leading cause of cancer‐related morbidity and mortality worldwide yet is largely preventable through effective screening and surveillance. While most CRC cases are sporadic, a substantial proportion occur in individuals at increased risk due to hereditary cancer syndromes or family history who require tailored
