Precision therapies for genetic epilepsies in 2025: Promises and pitfalls
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract By targeting the underlying etiology, precision therapies offer an exciting paradigm shift to improve the stagnant outcomes of drug‐resistant epilepsies, including developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. Unlike conventional antiseizure medications (ASMs) which only treat the symptoms (seizures) but have no effect on the underlying ...

Enhancing spatial cognition through origami training: Insights from brain connectomes
Journal of Intelligent Medicine, EarlyView.Origami training enhances spatial cognition via measurable brain network changes (EEG/eye‐tracking). The mental rotation and folding tasks validate these gains. This low‐cost method offers a scalable intervention for cognitive decline. Abstract Spatial cognition is a key ability of human cognition and intelligence.

Barriers to nutrition following neurosurgery: A descriptive cohort study
Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.Abstract Background Neurological trauma results in a state of hypermetabolism. Existing literature has explored barriers to adequate nutrition following traumatic brain injury. Despite clinical similarities, it remains unclear whether similar nutritional barriers are faced following both planned and emergency neurosurgical procedures.
