Novel POLG variants associated with late-onset de novo status epilepticus and progressive ataxia [PDF]
Mitochondrial disease is phenotypically and genetically heterogeneous with an estimated prevalence of 1 in 4,300.1 Mutations in the POLG gene, encoding the catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase gamma, are an important cause of mitochondrial disease.

A Clinical, Neuropathological and Genetic Study of Homozygous A467T POLG-Related Mitochondrial Disease [PDF]
Mutations in the nuclear gene POLG (encoding the catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase gamma) are an important cause of mitochondrial disease. The most common POLG mutation, A467T, appears to exhibit considerable phenotypic heterogeneity.

Clinical, biochemical, and genetic features associated with VARS2-related mitochondrial disease [PDF]
In recent years, an increasing number of mitochondrial disorders have been associated with mutations in mitochondrial aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (mt-aaRSs), which are key enzymes of mitochondrial protein synthesis. Bi-allelic functional variants in VARS2,

Defining the end point of status epilepticus: A scoping review and framework for standardization
Abstract Status epilepticus (SE) is a life‐threatening neurological emergency with consensus‐driven definitions for onset but no standardized criteria for its end point. This gap creates uncertainty in research and clinical practice. We conducted a scoping review to evaluate how end points have been defined in SE research and to identify key areas of ...

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches
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.
