Efficacy of fenfluramine in a pediatric epilepsy patient with a pathogenic SV2A variant: A case report

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Pathogenic SV2A gene variants have been reported as causes of epilepsy and are often associated with drug resistance and susceptibility to fever‐related seizures. No highly effective treatments have been established for this condition. We report a female patient with a family history of epilepsy who developed generalized seizures associated ...

Genetic testing among patients evaluated for epilepsy surgery

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Genetic testing performed to identify the underlying etiology of epilepsy has become increasingly common and is now being recommended as part of the presurgical evaluation for epilepsy surgery. This study aimed to characterize the types of genetic tests performed in patients evaluated for epilepsy surgery and assess how genetic ...

Occipital irregular delta activity in focal epilepsy

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Nonspecific occipital irregular delta activity (OID) is a common finding in focal epilepsy (FE). However, the significance of OID and its relationship to the underlying etiology of FE remain largely unstudied. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between OID and the etiology of FE, as well as the relationship between OID ...

Electroclinical phenotypes—genetic characterization of developmental and epileptic encephalopathies in a cohort study

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) are characterized by refractory seizures and frequently recurring epileptic activity with neurodevelopmental delay or regression that usually begin in early life. We aimed to define the relationship between electroclinical features and etiology, as well as the genotype–phenotype ...

Epilepsy with eyelid myoclonia beyond the classical phenotype: Longitudinal electroclinical observations in a pediatric cohort

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy with eyelid myoclonia is a childhood‐onset generalized epilepsy syndrome with variable recognition of eyelid myoclonia, eye‐closure sensitivity, and photosensitivity during follow‐up. We aimed to characterize longitudinal clinical and electroencephalographic features in pediatric epilepsy with eyelid myoclonia, focusing on ...

Increased levels of HMGB1 and pro-inflammatory cytokines in children with febrile seizures

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2011
Objective Febrile seizures are the most common form of childhood seizures. Fever is induced by pro-inflammatory cytokines during infection, and pro-inflammatory cytokines may trigger the development of febrile seizures.

Oligogenic inheritance in epilepsy: A systematic exome‐wide analysis

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Genetic factors contribute to the majority of epilepsies, but the exact genetic cause remains unknown in most patients. Incomplete penetrance and variable expressivity are frequent, and recent studies showed a burden of deleterious variants in epilepsy genes, suggesting a role for oligogenic inheritance.
