Altered cortical synchronization in photosensitive idiopathic generalized epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To characterize cortical excitability and synchronization dynamics in patients with idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE) and photosensitivity by assessing steady‐state visual evoked potentials (SSVEPs) elicited by intermittent photic stimulation.

Components of generalized onset seizures with focal evolution progressing to bilateral tonic–clonic seizures using quantitative electroencephalography in children: Focal or generalized?

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Absence seizures evolving to bilateral tonic–clonic seizures may have focal or asymmetric clinical features. Using quantitative electroencephalography (EEG) may evaluate this phenomenon and the involved neuronal network. We conducted a retrospective chart review of pediatric patients with generalized epilepsy and normal brain magnetic ...

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.

Timing is everything: The effect of early‐life seizures on developing neuronal circuits subserving spatial memory

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Spatial memory, the aspect of memory involving encoding and retrieval of information regarding one's environment and spatial orientation, is a complex biological function incorporating multiple neuronal networks. Hippocampus‐dependent spatial memory is not innate and emerges during development in both humans and rodents.

Epilepsies and epileptic syndromes with an unfavorable evolution of febrile crisis antecedents

Revista Habanera de Ciencias Médicas, 2016
Introduction: Febrile crisis occur in 2-5% of children and happened between the ages of 6 months to five years in the absence of central nervous system infection, and previous afebrile seizures.

Epilepsy syndromes classification

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy syndromes are distinct electroclinical entities which have been recently defined by the International League Against Epilepsy Nosology and Definitions Task Force. Each syndrome is associated with “a characteristic cluster of clinical and EEG features, often supported by specific etiologic findings”.

Intestinal microbiome alterations in pediatric epilepsy: Implications for seizures and therapeutic approaches

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract The intestinal microbiome plays a pivotal role in maintaining host health through its involvement in gastrointestinal, immune, and central nervous system (CNS) functions. Recent evidence underscores the bidirectional communication between the microbiota, the gut, and the brain and the impact of this axis on neurological diseases, including ...

Infantile-Onset Unverricht–Lundborg Disease: A Unique Case With Severe Neurological Impairment and Positive Family History

Journal of Investigative Medicine High Impact Case Reports
Progressive myoclonus epilepsies (PMEs) are a group of genetic disorders marked by myoclonus, epilepsy, and progressive neurological decline. Unverricht–Lundborg disease (ULD) is among the more common forms, though prevalence varies.

Genetic epilepsies with myoclonic seizures: Mechanisms and syndromes

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Genetic epilepsy with myoclonic seizures encompasses a heterogeneous spectrum of conditions, ranging from benign and self‐limiting forms to severe, progressive disorders. While their causes are diverse, a significant proportion stems from genetic abnormalities.

Precision therapies for genetic epilepsies in 2025: Promises and pitfalls

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract By targeting the underlying etiology, precision therapies offer an exciting paradigm shift to improve the stagnant outcomes of drug‐resistant epilepsies, including developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. Unlike conventional antiseizure medications (ASMs) which only treat the symptoms (seizures) but have no effect on the underlying ...
