Frontiers in EEG as a tool for the management of pediatric epilepsy: Past, present, and future
Abstract Electroencephalography (EEG) has evolved into an indispensable tool in pediatric epilepsy, fundamentally transforming the diagnosis, classification, and management of this condition. This review chronicles the historical journey of EEG from its groundbreaking inception to its current pivotal role in delineating distinct pediatric epilepsy ...

Genetic testing practices across European epilepsy centers: An ERN EpiCARE survey
Abstract Objective Genetic testing plays an increasing role in the diagnostic pathway for rare and complex epilepsies. However, significant heterogeneity persists in access, implementation, and interpretation across Europe. This study aimed to assess genetic testing practices, accessibility, and challenges across expert epilepsy centers within the ...

The genetic architecture of epilepsy across molecular mechanisms and clinical heterogeneity
Abstract Epilepsy comprises a highly heterogeneous group of neurological disorders unified by a persistent predisposition to recurrent seizures, yet driven by remarkably diverse genetic, molecular, and network‐level mechanisms. Advances in genomic technologies have revealed that epilepsy arises from a multilayered genetic architecture encompassing rare

Abstract Objective To determine whether computational protein‐stability predictions discriminate pathogenic from benign SCN1A missense variants, and to characterize the structural distribution of predicted destabilization among pathogenic variants. Methods On an AlphaFold3‐predicted Nav1.1 structure, FoldX, and Rosetta Cartesian ΔΔG were computed for a

Clobazam and Valproate, but Lamotrigine, a Sodium Channel Inhibitor, Reduce the Incidence of Hyperthermia-Induced Clonic Seizures in Dravet Syndrome Mice: Assessment of Anti-Seizure Effects in Mice Using a Stabilized Ambient Temperature System. [PDF]
Using a stabilized incubator‐based hyperthermia model of Dravet syndrome, we showed that clobazam and valproate significantly reduced heat‐induced clonic seizures and delayed seizure onset in Scn1a KI/+ mice. In contrast, lamotrigine showed no protective effect.
