Seizure control after radiosurgical treatment in patients with cerebral arteriovenous malformations: An observational study

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Seizures are among the most common symptoms of cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). Although the main goal of AVM treatment remains complete obliteration, seizure control has become an important treatment aspect in recent years.

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

Open diffusion magnetic resonance imaging and connectivity data for epilepsy and surgery: The IDEAS II release

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epileptic seizures are generated in cerebral networks that propagate ictal and interictal activity. The structure of cerebral networks underpinning epileptic activity can be inferred from diffusion‐weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI).

In praise of ambidexterity: How a continuum of handedness predicts social adjustment [PDF]

This paper estimates the relationship between handedness and social adjustment. In addition to binary measures of hand preference, we also use a continuous measure of hand skill. Outcomes at ages 7, 11 and 16 are studied.

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.

New insights into epileptic spasm generation and treatment from the TTX animal model

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Currently, we have an incomplete understanding of the mechanisms underlying infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS). However, over the past decade, significant efforts have been made to develop IESS animal models to provide much‐needed mechanistic information for therapy development.

Novel planning pipeline utilizing the Surgical Theater system for pediatric epilepsy surgery

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Advances in the analysis and collation of radiographic datasets have enhanced presurgical planning for various neurosurgical procedures, including clipping of cerebral aneurysms, surgical resection of tumors, and arteriovenous malformation management.

Epileptic drop attacks: More than just atonic seizures

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract “Drop attacks” are not officially defined by the International League Against Epilepsy. Seizures are characterized by a sudden loss of control over the trunk and posture, leading to falls and injuries, and resolving within a few seconds. Accurately diagnosing the type of seizure is usually difficult due to limitations in clinical documentation

Epilepsy surgery: From bench to the clinics

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Recent advances in epilepsy surgery in patients with intractable epilepsy make it possible to study the mechanism of epilepsy in human brains. However, the true extent and propagation of each epileptogenic area from the epileptogenic focus in each patient is still difficult to perform “epilepsy cure” by surgery.

Isolated absence epilepsy associated with a de novo FBXW7 missense variant in the F‐box domain

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract The FBXW7 gene encodes a substrate‐recognition component of the Skp1‐Cul1‐F‐box (SCF) E3 ubiquitin ligase complex, which targets key regulatory proteins for proteasomal degradation. Recently, loss‐of‐function FBXW7 variants have been associated with a novel neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by heterogeneous clinical features.
