The burden of the postictal state in epilepsy: A prospective, single‐center observational cohort study

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The postictal state is a major yet underrecognized component of the epilepsy burden. We aimed to develop a structured patient‐reported instrument to quantify postictal recovery, characterize its multidimensional burden, and identify demographic, clinical, psychiatric, and treatment‐related factors associated with postictal severity ...

A case report: Management of carbamazepine intoxication using hemodialysis followed by continuous venovenous hemodialysis

SAGE Open Medical Case Reports
An 18-year-old woman presented to the emergency department. She had ingested 43 extended-release tablets of carbamazepine 400 mg. Although the patient had high carbamazepine plasma levels and classified as severe intoxication, her clinical symptoms were ...

The effectiveness of adding on or switching antiseizure medications after the first fails to control focal epilepsy: A systematic review of randomized controlled trials

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Focal epilepsy constitutes 60–70% of epilepsy, and up to half of patients do not achieve seizure freedom with their first antiseizure medication (ASM). When the first ASM fails, evidence guiding whether to switch or add‐on another ASM and which ASMs to use is limited. This review synthesized evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on

Electroclinical phenotypes—genetic characterization of developmental and epileptic encephalopathies in a cohort study

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) are characterized by refractory seizures and frequently recurring epileptic activity with neurodevelopmental delay or regression that usually begin in early life. We aimed to define the relationship between electroclinical features and etiology, as well as the genotype–phenotype ...

KBG syndrome: A scoping review of electroclinical features of patients with epilepsy

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives KBG syndrome is a rare autosomal developmental disorder caused by pathogenic variants of the ANKRD11 gene. This scoping review aimed to explore all current literature data regarding clinical and electroencephalographic features of patients with KBG syndrome and epilepsy. Materials and Methods We conducted a literature

Predicting seizure freedom in the postpartum period: Findings from the Maternal Outcomes and Neurodevelopmental Effects of Antiepileptic Drugs study

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study was undertaken to evaluate whether seizure freedom in pregnancy predicts seizure freedom in the postpartum period in women with epilepsy (WWE). Prior studies have shown that seizure freedom prior to conception strongly predicts seizure freedom during pregnancy.

Seizure relapse in new onset epilepsy: It is not always drug resistance

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Seizure recurrence in new onset epilepsy (NOE) can result from various factors. Although drug ineffectiveness is frequently investigated, other causes—such as nonadherence, inadequate treatment, nonepileptic events (e.g., functional/dissociative), or acute symptomatic seizures—also impact patient outcomes.

Long‐term prognosis of pharmacotherapy in newly diagnosed focal epilepsy patients and the predictive value of baseline seizure timing: A prospective cohort study

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy is a highly heterogeneous neurological disorder with significant prognostic variability. Accurate long‐term outcome prediction remains a clinical challenge. We investigated pharmacotherapeutic prognosis and key predictors, particularly baseline seizure timing, to guide individualized treatment.
