Epilepsy in emerging adulthood: Clinical, psychosocial, and surgical challenges

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Emerging adulthood (EAs; ages 19–29 years) is a unique developmental stage marked by major psychological, social, and occupational transitions. We sought to characterize the clinical, psychosocial, and surgical features of epilepsy in emerging adulthood, considering both current age and age at epilepsy onset.

Targeted senotherapy improves electrographic and behavioral outcomes in a mouse model of temporal lobe epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Current pharmacotherapy for temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is limited to symptomatic treatment and leaves approximately one third of patients with inadequate seizure control. Discovering disease‐modifying targets is an unmet clinical need. We have previously identified senescent cells (SCs) as one such target. Many drugs that eliminate

A consensus roadmap for post‐traumatic epilepsy: Clinical biomarkers, research priorities, policy barriers, and pathways to interventional trials

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding the mechanisms underlying post‐traumatic epilepsy (PTE) following traumatic brain injury (TBI), and developing strategies to prevent or modify its progression, has been the focus of large collaborative efforts within the epilepsy and TBI research communities for over a decade.

CaMKIIβ insufficiency disrupts cortical networks, producing aberrant low‐gamma oscillations and seizure susceptibility

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Pathogenic variants in the calcium/calmodulin‐dependent protein kinase II B gene (CAMK2B) have been associated with neurodevelopmental disorders, including epilepsy, yet the mechanisms underlying cortical dysfunction remain largely unclear.

Evaluation of effects of intravenous infusion of dexmedetomidine or lignocaine on stress response and postoperative pain in patients undergoing craniotomy for intracranial tumors: A randomized controlled exploratory study

Saudi Journal of Anaesthesia
Background: Goals of anesthesia in neurosurgery include stable cerebral hemodynamics and provide relaxed brain to surgeon. Dexmedetomidine and lignocaine as an adjuvant can fulfill these criteria but literature comparing the two are sparse.

Dual role of spreading depolarization in an epileptic focus

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Spreading depolarizations (SDs) are often associated with epileptic discharges. Although SDs are traditionally thought to contribute to postictal depression and termination of epileptic discharges, seizures may also occur during SDs or may even follow SDs, suggesting that interactions between SD and seizures are more complex.

A shared neural ensemble links distinct contextual memories encoded close in time. [PDF]

, 2016
Recent studies suggest that a shared neural ensemble may link distinct memories encoded close in time. According to the memory allocation hypothesis, learning triggers a temporary increase in neuronal excitability that biases the representation of a ...

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.
