Video‐based diagnostics supported by artificial intelligence as an opportunity to address the epilepsy diagnostic gap: A narrative review

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite advancements in epilepsy care, a substantial diagnostic gap persists, particularly in resource‐limited settings. This narrative review explores the potential of video‐based diagnostics augmented by artificial intelligence (AI) to address this gap by enabling earlier and more accessible seizure detection and classification.

KCNJ4 variants disrupt inward‐rectifier potassium channel function and cause refractory epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder with a strong genetic basis, most frequently arising from ion channel dysfunction. Although multiple inwardly rectifying potassium (Kir) channels have been implicated in epileptogenesis, the contribution of KCNJ4, which encodes the Kir2.3 channel, has not previously been established in human
