Interictal EEG features as computational biomarkers of West syndrome [PDF]
BackgroundWest syndrome (WS) is a devastating epileptic encephalopathy with onset in infancy and early childhood. It is characterized by clustered epileptic spasms, developmental arrest, and interictal hypsarrhythmia on electroencephalogram (EEG ...

Dental Considerations and Treatment Approaches in West Syndrome—Infantile Spasms: A Case Report [PDF]
Introduction: West syndrome (WS) comprises a classic triad of infantile spasms (ISs), hypsarrhythmia, and psychomotor delay. It is considered a rare epileptic encephalopathy typical to manifest in infancy or early childhood.

Bi-allelic GAD1 variants cause a neonatal onset syndromic developmental and epileptic encephalopathy. [PDF]
Developmental and epileptic encephalopathies are a heterogeneous group of early-onset epilepsy syndromes dramatically impairing neurodevelopment. Modern genomic technologies have revealed a number of monogenic origins and opened the door to therapeutic ...

Genotypic and phenotypic spectrum of pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy (ALDH7A1 deficiency) [PDF]
Pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy was recently shown to be due to mutations in the ALDH7A1 gene, which encodes antiquitin, an enzyme that catalyses the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent dehydrogenation of L-{alpha}-aminoadipic semialdehyde/L-{Delta}

Biallelic mutations in valyl-tRNA synthetase gene VARS are associated with a progressive neurodevelopmental epileptic encephalopathy. [PDF]
Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (ARSs) function to transfer amino acids to cognate tRNA molecules, which are required for protein translation. To date, biallelic mutations in 31 ARS genes are known to cause recessive, early-onset severe multi-organ diseases ...

Infantile spasms (West syndrome): update and resources for pediatricians and providers to share with parents [PDF]
Background Infantile spasms (IS; West syndrome) is a severe form of encephalopathy that typically affects infants younger than 2 years old. Pediatricians, pediatric neurologists, and other pediatric health care providers are all potentially key early ...
