Artificial intelligence in preclinical epilepsy research: Current state, potential, and challenges
Abstract Preclinical translational epilepsy research uses animal models to better understand the mechanisms underlying epilepsy and its comorbidities, as well as to analyze and develop potential treatments that may mitigate this neurological disorder and its associated conditions. Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative tool across

The multiple hit model of infantile and epileptic spasms: The 2025 update
Abstract Objective Infantile and epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) is a developmental and epileptic encephalopathy manifesting with epileptic spasms and poor neurodevelopmental outcomes. There is an urgent need for the development of more effective and tolerated therapies.

Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms
Abstract Approximately half of all cases of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) do not respond to vigabatrin and hormonal therapies. There is no clear consensus as to the second‐line therapy for IESS. Ketogenic diet (KD) has emerged as an effective treatment for certain drug‐resistant epilepsies and in many cases of IESS.

ABSTRACT Objectives Dravet syndrome (DS) is a severe, drug‐resistant developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE) that requires polytherapy for adequate seizure control. The need to combine multiple antiseizure medications (ASMs), together with variability in seizure types, safety considerations, and evolving patient needs, makes treatment ...

Abstract Pediatric drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) remains a significant clinical challenge, with few effective pharmacological options. This European multicenter retrospective study assessed the real‐world efficacy, tolerability, and retention of off‐label cenobamate (CNB) in 108 children and adolescents with DRE (median age: 13.83 years, range 3.9–19.8)
