Abstract Seizure frequency has been the primary endpoint in epilepsy trials, with enrollment usually requiring ≥4 seizures per month. This threshold is more and more misaligned with clinical reality, as the availability of more treatment options has reduced baseline seizure burden, with a risk of excluding a proportion of patients from trials.

Picture naming: Stereoelectroencephalography and connectivity insights
Abstract Objective This study investigates the neural substrates of picture naming (PN) using stereoelectroencephalographic (SEEG) stimulations and evaluates the contribution of white matter (WM) fascicles related to the basal temporal language area (BTLA) to the broader functional PN network.

Corticocortical evoked potential amplitude is altered by cortical stimulation in epilepsy
Abstract Objective Neurostimulation is an established therapy for drug‐resistant epilepsy, but optimizing stimulation parameters remains a major challenge. Corticocortical evoked potential (CCEP) amplitude may serve as an immediate biomarker of neurostimulation effects, enabling rapid parameter optimization.

Low diagnostic yield of presurgical genetic testing in adult patients with epilepsy
Abstract Objective To determine the diagnostic yield of genetic testing in patients undergoing presurgical evaluation for epilepsy. Methods We conducted a cohort study including 115 adult patients who underwent presurgical evaluation in the Calgary Epilepsy Program between 2019 and 2023 and who had undergone research exome sequencing.

Seizure relapse in new onset epilepsy: It is not always drug resistance
Abstract Objective Seizure recurrence in new onset epilepsy (NOE) can result from various factors. Although drug ineffectiveness is frequently investigated, other causes—such as nonadherence, inadequate treatment, nonepileptic events (e.g., functional/dissociative), or acute symptomatic seizures—also impact patient outcomes.
