The upside of epilepsy: Theories of an evolutionary paradox
Abstract The persistence of common, heritable conditions, like epilepsy, that are associated with reduced reproductive fitness is an evolutionary paradox.

Neuronal surface and intracellular antibody testing in patients with long‐term epilepsy
Abstract Objective We aimed to investigate the frequency of neuronal surface and intracellular antibodies in individuals with long‐term epilepsy and the associated clinical and laboratory characteristics. Methods We tested sera from 223 patients with epilepsy without signs of autoimmune encephalitis and 12 patients with epilepsy and a subacute onset of

Abstract Objective The efficacy of the community‐based epilepsy management program has been validated in rural regions of China. However, a considerable proportion of patients with epilepsy in these areas continue to experience adverse outcomes. This study aims to investigate the factors influencing seizure control among patients with convulsive ...

Abstract Objective Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the anterior thalamic nucleus (ATN) and hippocampus is an emerging therapy for drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) when resective surgery is not feasible. We aimed to evaluate the long‐term cognitive outcomes of these two DBS targets, hypothesizing that both interventions preserve cognitive function ...
