Clinical and genetic landscape of epilepsies with absence seizures and single‐gene etiology

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To characterize the clinical, electroencephalographic, and genetic features of epilepsies featuring absence seizures within monogenic etiology, highlighting the diagnostic, treatment and prognostic implications. Methods We conducted a retrospective, multicenter study including patients with monogenic epilepsies and ...

Correlation Between Cannabidiol-Induced Reduction of Infarct Volume and Inflammatory Factors Expression in Ischemic Stroke Model

open access: yesBasic and Clinical Neuroscience, 2017
Introduction: Recent studies demonstrated that cannabidiol had neuroprotective property. Thereis some evidence about effective role of cannabidiol in reducing ischemic damages. It has been reported that infarct size is influenced by various factors after

Subthreshold Cannabidiol Potentiates Levetiracetam in the Kainic Acid Model of Temporal Lobe Epilepsy: A Pilot Study

open access: yesPharmaceuticals
Refractoriness to antiseizure medications is still a major concern in the pharmacotherapy of epilepsy. For this reason, we decided to evaluate the combination of levetiracetam and cannabidiol, administered at a subthreshold dose, to limit the possible ...

Lennox–Gastaut syndrome unveiled: Advancing diagnosis, therapies, and advocacy‐insights from the Genoa International Workshop

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Lennox–Gastaut syndrome (LGS) is one of the most severe, yet one of the most discussed, childhood‐onset developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs). Dissent among epileptologists on the definition and minimum set of electroclinical features derives from the high etiological heterogeneity within the syndrome, which could make its ...

Epilepsy in dentatorubral–pallidoluysian atrophy: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Summary of key clinical and electrophysiological characteristics of DRPLA‐related epilepsy from a systematic review and meta‐analysis of 1,191 patients. DRPLA patients with epilepsy showed earlier disease onset, longer CAG repeat expansion, and a tendency toward paternal inheritance. EEG findings frequently included photoparoxysmal responses.

Epilepsy treatment over time: The chess game analogy for choosing, adjusting, and adding antiseizure medications

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Recurrent seizures have such a negative impact upon the lives of persons with epilepsy that their prevention is a constant preoccupation of neurologists. Despite the large number of antiseizure medications (ASMs) currently available and of publications on their putative efficacy, adverse effects, and order of preference to start treatment ...

Pediatric Investigation Plans for seizure and epilepsy treatments: An analysis since the implementation of the European Pediatric Regulation in 2006

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective A Pediatric Investigation Plan (PIP) implemented under the European Pediatric Regulation (EC No. 1901/2006) aims to ensure early and systematic evaluation of medicines for children. We analyze PIPs for antiseizure medications (ASMs) submitted to the European Medicines Agency (EMA) since 2006, characterizing their content, focusing on

Clinical trajectories and medication response in TBC1D24‐related epilepsies

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Biallelic variants in TBC1D24 represent a rare cause of epilepsy and neurodevelopmental disorders, including severe developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. Here, we present the first attempt to delineate the longitudinal disease histories and effectiveness of antiseizure medications (ASMs) in TBC1D24‐related disorders.
