Temporal Interference Stimulation of Centromedian‐Parafascicular Complex in Disorders of Consciousness: A Pilot Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Treatment of disorders of consciousness (DoC) remains a major clinical challenge, and noninvasive, targeted modulation of deep brain structures has emerged as a promising therapeutic strategy. We aimed to evaluate the feasibility/safety and preliminary effects of thalamic temporal interference stimulation (TIS) targeting centromedian‐

Neuronal voltage-gated ion channels are genetic modifiers of generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus

Neurobiology of Disease, 2011
Mutations in the neuronal voltage-gated sodium channel genes SCN1A and SCN2A are associated with inherited epilepsies, including genetic epilepsy with febrile seizures plus (GEFS+) and Dravet syndrome (severe myoclonic epilepsy of infancy).

Claustrum Involvement in New Onset Refractory Status Epilepticus: A Systematic Review

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The claustrum sign is a distinctive neuroimaging finding characterized by bilateral T2/FLAIR hyperintensity of the claustrum, one of the most interconnected regions of the human brain. It was first described in new‐onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE) and febrile infection–related epilepsy syndrome (FIRES).

Pregabalin in the management of partial epilepsy

Neuropsychiatric Disease and Treatment, 2009
Pregabalin is a new antiepileptic medication that works by binding to alpha 2 delta subunit of the voltage-dependent calcium channels present in presynaptic neurons. Its pharmacokinetic advantages include rapid and almost complete absorption, lack of protein binding, linear kinetics, absence of enzyme induction, and absence of interactions with other ...

Progressive Parkinsonism in PPP2R5D‐Related Neurodevelopmental Disorder

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT PPP2R5D‐related neurodevelopmental disorder (Houge–Janssens syndrome type 1) is a rare autosomal dominant condition characterized by macrocephaly, intellectual disability, and epilepsy. Progressive parkinsonism is an emerging adult phenotype that neurologists should be aware of since timely genetic diagnosis opens the door to disease‐modifying

Safety and Efficacy of GLP‐1 Receptor Agonists in Adults With Epilepsy, Obesity, and Type 2 Diabetes

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Managing obesity in patients with epilepsy is complicated by the weight‐gaining properties of essential antiseizure medications (ASMs) such as valproate and pregabalin. We evaluated the safety and efficacy of initiating glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs) in this population.

Migrating partial seizures in infancy and 47XYY syndrome: Cause or coincidence?

Epilepsy and Behavior Case Reports, 2014
Migrating partial seizures in infancy (MPSI) is a rare epilepsy syndrome with poor prognosis. The exact etiology of MPSI is still not known. We report a 14-month-old baby with 47XYY karyotype who presented with developmental delay and drug-refractory ...

Impact of Age on the Diagnostic Yield of Routine EEG in People With Childhood or Juvenile Absence Epilepsy: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background We aimed to identify the proportion of individuals with a confirmed diagnosis of childhood absence epilepsy (CAE) or juvenile absence epilepsy (JAE) who show a negative routine EEG (rEEG), and to determine the main factors associated with this finding.
