Effect of epileptogenesis on hypercapnic cardioventilatory response in kainic acid rats

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Cardioventilatory failure is the leading mechanism proposed to underlie sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP), which occurs predominantly at night in patients with generalized tonic–clonic seizures. Interictal hypercapnic cardioventilatory responses are suggested to be involved, as they are ablated in chronically epileptic ...

Predicting seizure freedom in the postpartum period: Findings from the Maternal Outcomes and Neurodevelopmental Effects of Antiepileptic Drugs study

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study was undertaken to evaluate whether seizure freedom in pregnancy predicts seizure freedom in the postpartum period in women with epilepsy (WWE). Prior studies have shown that seizure freedom prior to conception strongly predicts seizure freedom during pregnancy.

Low diagnostic yield of presurgical genetic testing in adult patients with epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To determine the diagnostic yield of genetic testing in patients undergoing presurgical evaluation for epilepsy. Methods We conducted a cohort study including 115 adult patients who underwent presurgical evaluation in the Calgary Epilepsy Program between 2019 and 2023 and who had undergone research exome sequencing.

Seizure relapse in new onset epilepsy: It is not always drug resistance

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Seizure recurrence in new onset epilepsy (NOE) can result from various factors. Although drug ineffectiveness is frequently investigated, other causes—such as nonadherence, inadequate treatment, nonepileptic events (e.g., functional/dissociative), or acute symptomatic seizures—also impact patient outcomes.

A translational multimodal machine‐learning prototype predicting valproate response in epilepsy treatment

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy affects ~1% of the global population and often requires lifelong antiseizure medication (ASM) therapy. Valproic acid (VPA) is a commonly prescribed first‐line ASM, yet only approximately half of patients achieve sustained seizure freedom. Treatment selection remains largely empirical.

Long‐term prognosis of pharmacotherapy in newly diagnosed focal epilepsy patients and the predictive value of baseline seizure timing: A prospective cohort study

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy is a highly heterogeneous neurological disorder with significant prognostic variability. Accurate long‐term outcome prediction remains a clinical challenge. We investigated pharmacotherapeutic prognosis and key predictors, particularly baseline seizure timing, to guide individualized treatment.

Add‐on treatment with vinpocetine reduces seizure frequency and improves comorbidities in patients with loss‐of‐function γ‐aminobutyric acid type A receptor variants

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The semisynthetic compound vinpocetine has gained attention as a potential precision medicine for developmental and epileptic encephalopathies caused by loss‐of‐function (LoF) variants in γ‐aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptor genes. As a positive allosteric modulator of GABAA receptors, case reports suggest that vinpocetine can
