Autoimmune‐associated seizure disorders
Epileptic Disorders, Volume 26, Issue 4, Page 415-434, August 2024.Abstract With the discovery of an expanding number of neural autoantibodies, autoimmune etiologies of seizures have been increasingly recognized. Clinical phenotypes have been identified in association with specific underlying antibodies, allowing an earlier diagnosis.

Epilepsia, Volume 65, Issue 8, Page 2368-2385, August 2024.Abstract Objective Amygdala enlargement can occur in temporal lobe epilepsy, and increased amygdala volume is also reported in sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP). Apnea can be induced by amygdala stimulation, and postconvulsive central apnea (PCCA) and generalized seizures are both known SUDEP risk factors.
