Heterozygous variants in AP4S1 are not associated with a neurological phenotype

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biallelic loss‐of‐function variants in AP4S1 cause childhood‐onset hereditary spastic paraplegia. A recent report suggested that heterozygous AP4S1 variants lead to a syndrome of lower limb spasticity and dysregulation of sphincter function. We critically evaluate this claim against clinical observations in 28 heterozygous carriers of the same

National and State Estimates of the Numbers of Adults and Children with Active Epilepsy — United States, 2015

open access: yesMMWR. Morbidity and mortality weekly report, 2017
Epilepsy, a brain disorder leading to recurring seizures, has garnered increased public health focus because persons with epilepsy experience pronounced and persistent health and socioeconomic disparities despite treatment advances, public awareness ...

Clinical impact and safety of brain biopsy in unexplained central nervous system disorders: a real‐world cohort study

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective A substantial part of central nervous system (CNS) disorders remains unexplained, despite various new and minimally invasive diagnostic techniques. Within this rapidly developing diagnostic field, the precise role of brain biopsy is unknown.

JUVENILE MYOCLONIC EPILEPSY: A FOCUS ON THE EFFICACY OF THERAPY AND THE RATE OF RELAPSES ACCORDING TO LONG-TERM FOLLOW-UP DATA

open access: yesРусский журнал детской неврологии, 2016
Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) is a type of adolescent-onset idiopathic generalized epilepsy with the appearance of massive myoclonic seizures and, in most cases, generalized convulsions occurring chiefly in the period after awakening.

UDP‐glucose dehydrogenase variants cause dystroglycanopathy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract UDP‐glucose dehydrogenase (UGDH) variants have been associated with hypotonia, developmental delay, and epilepsy. We report the first pathologic evidence of dystroglycanopathy in siblings with UGDH variants. Both presented around 6 months with developmental delay and elevated creatinine kinase.

A Proposed Diagnostic Scheme for People with Epileptic Seizures and with Epilepsy: Report of the ILAE Task Force on Classification and Terminology

open access: yesEpilepsia, 2001
The International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) made a major contribution when it established standardized classifications and terminology for epileptic seizures and syndromes. This provided a universal vocabulary that not only facilitated communication
