Current data on early diagnosis of West syndrome. Electroencephalographic evolution of hypsarrhythmia

, 2020
The review of current ideas about the early diagnosis of West syndrome is presented in terms of electroencephalography data based on a characterization of the period of «prehypsarrhythmia» preceding the appearance of the pattern of hypsarrhythmia.

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

Epilepsia, 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.

Insights into ANKRD11‐related epilepsy from 163 people

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Ankyrin repeat domain 11 gene (ANKRD11) is the key disease gene for autosomal dominant KBG syndrome, and a subset of affected individuals develop epilepsy. However, comprehensive characterization of epilepsy‐related phenotypes and genotype–phenotype correlations in ANKRD11 variant carriers remains limited.

Epilepsy‐associated SCN2A‐L1342P mutation drives network hyperexcitability and widespread transcriptomic changes in human cortical organoids

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective SCN2A pathogenic mutations, such as the recurrent heterozygous Nav1.2‐L1342P, are monogenic causes of epilepsy. In this human‐induced pluripotent stem cell–derived model system, we aim to investigate the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying SCN2A‐L1342P‐associated pathology. Methods Using a human male induced pluripotent stem

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.

Epilepsy syndromes classification

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy syndromes are distinct electroclinical entities which have been recently defined by the International League Against Epilepsy Nosology and Definitions Task Force. Each syndrome is associated with “a characteristic cluster of clinical and EEG features, often supported by specific etiologic findings”.

Intestinal microbiome alterations in pediatric epilepsy: Implications for seizures and therapeutic approaches

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract The intestinal microbiome plays a pivotal role in maintaining host health through its involvement in gastrointestinal, immune, and central nervous system (CNS) functions. Recent evidence underscores the bidirectional communication between the microbiota, the gut, and the brain and the impact of this axis on neurological diseases, including ...
