Histopathological Evidence of Neurodegenerative Pathology in Epilepsy: A Systematic Review

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Epilepsy affects > 50 million people worldwide and is associated with a disproportionate burden of cognitive impairment. Emerging evidence suggests that neurodegenerative proteinopathies, particularly hyperphosphorylated tau (p‐tau) and amyloid‐β (Aβ), may contribute to cognitive dysfunction in people with epilepsy (PWE), even in the absence ...

Management Guidelines for the Treatment of Pediatric Brain Tumor–Associated Seizure: A Modified Delphi Consensus Report

Annals of the Child Neurology Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Seizures represent a significant source of morbidity for children with brain tumors. The objective of our study was to establish consensus guidelines for managing children with tumor‐related epilepsy. Methods The study team assembled a panel of 18 child neurologists specializing in neurological complications of brain tumors including

WONOEP XVII appraisal: The role of the extracellular matrix in epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract The extracellular matrix (ECM) is composed of proteoglycans and glycoproteins that regulate the external environment surrounding neurons, glia, and the vascular system. The ECM is vital for maintaining the structure and function of the brain and also acts as a reservoir for various signaling molecules and neurotransmitters, modulating synaptic

High incidence of Y‐chromosome mosaicism in male and female individuals with mild malformation of cortical development with oligodendroglial hyperplasia in epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Mild malformation of cortical development with oligodendroglial hyperplasia in epilepsy (MOGHE) is an underrecognized pediatric cortical lesion associated with somatic X‐linked SLC35A2 variants in approximately 50% of individuals. The genetic etiology in individuals without detectable SLC35A2 mutations remains undefined, which limits

Intermittent fasting with medium‐chain triglycerides in drug‐resistant epilepsy: A pilot crossover trial

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Ketogenic dietary therapies can reduce seizure frequency in drug‐resistant epilepsy, but adherence to the classical ketogenic diet is often poor. Intermittent fasting supplemented with medium‐chain triglycerides (MCTs) may offer a more feasible and less restrictive alternative.

Prolonged Response Induced by Single Agent Vemurafenib in a BRAF V600E Spinal Ganglioglioma: A Case Report and Review of the Literature

Frontiers in Oncology, 2019
Spinal ganglioglioma is a rare low-grade, slow-growing tumor of the central nervous system affecting mostly children and young adults. After surgery, some patients show tumor recurrence and/or malignant transformation.

Epileptogenic lesions in the Australian epilepsy project: A harmonized 3‐T magnetic resonance imaging protocol and its diagnostic yield

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Detection of epilepsy‐causing structural brain lesions on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is critical for diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment planning in people with epilepsy. We aimed to establish an epilepsy‐directed multisite harmonized 3‐T MRI acquisition protocol for the Australian Epilepsy Project (AEP) and describe the ...

Complete lesion resection and early surgical intervention are favorable factors for long‐term seizure freedom in drug‐resistant epileptic spasms

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epileptic spasms (ES) in children carry a high risk of neurodevelopmental delay, yet predictors of long‐term surgical outcome remain incompletely defined. This study aimed to evaluate seizure outcomes following epilepsy surgery and to identify independent prognostic factors for postoperative recurrence.
