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

open access: yesEpilepsia, 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

Pediatric epilepsy surgery: Global survey of referral and presurgical evaluation practices

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Pediatric epilepsy surgery is well established, but contemporary global data on referral and presurgical evaluation practices are lacking. This International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) Pediatric Epilepsy Surgery Task Force study provides an updated overview of current trends and regional differences. Methods Group‐level data were

Are comorbid sleep disorders associated with higher risk for sudden unexpected death in epilepsy? Observations from a Canadian epilepsy clinic

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Pooled mortality is nearly three times higher in people with epilepsy (PWE). Approximately 80% of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) events occur during sleep, and primary sleep disorders are prevalent in the general population and PWE.

Responsive stimulation of the thalamus for idiopathic generalized epilepsy: Results of the randomized controlled NAUTILUS trial through 18 months

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study was undertaken to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of responsive thalamic stimulation as adjunctive therapy for drug‐resistant idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE) with generalized tonic–clonic seizures (GTCSs). Methods NAUTILUS is a prospective, multicenter, single‐blind, randomized sham‐controlled pivotal trial ...

Ultrafast oscillations in the human brain and their functional significance

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The upper frequency limit of human brain activity remains unknown. Using ultrahigh sampling rate (≥20 kHz) intracranial microelectroencephalography, this study aimed to systematically explore and quantitatively characterize brain field oscillations beyond the established high‐frequency oscillation range (>2 kHz), and to determine ...

Pediatric epilepsy surgery: Global survey of invasive explorations

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Invasive presurgical evaluation plays a key role in pediatric epilepsy surgery, particularly in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)‐negative cases, by guiding resective, disconnective, or ablative procedures. This International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) Pediatric Epilepsy Surgery Taskforce study provides an updated global overview ...

Diagnosis and management guidelines for infantile epileptic spasms syndrome around the world: A scoping review and comparative study of international approaches

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) is an epileptic encephalopathy requiring rapid diagnosis and treatment to optimize neurodevelopmental outcomes. Although multiple national and regional guidelines exist, recommendations vary.

Paroxysmal slow waves mark ictal networks

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy diagnosis and treatment monitoring are hindered by the episodic, heterogeneous expression of seizures and by normal‐appearing scalp electroencephalography (EEG) in many patients. We previously described paroxysmal slow‐wave events (PSWEs), brief epochs of broadband slowing detectable on EEG in people with epilepsy.
