Epileptic drop attacks: More than just atonic seizures

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract “Drop attacks” are not officially defined by the International League Against Epilepsy. Seizures are characterized by a sudden loss of control over the trunk and posture, leading to falls and injuries, and resolving within a few seconds. Accurately diagnosing the type of seizure is usually difficult due to limitations in clinical documentation

Subcortical Nuclei Volumetry in Idiopathic Generalized Epilepsy

, 2005
The exact anatomic and neurophysiologic correlates of idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE) in humans are still not well understood, although the thalamus has frequently been invoked as the crucial structure in the generation of primary generalized ...

Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Approximately half of all cases of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) do not respond to vigabatrin and hormonal therapies. There is no clear consensus as to the second‐line therapy for IESS. Ketogenic diet (KD) has emerged as an effective treatment for certain drug‐resistant epilepsies and in many cases of IESS.

Auditory gamma‐band synchronization and attentional performance in juvenile myoclonic epilepsy

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Cognitive difficulties in juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) are part of the clinical phenotype alongside epileptic seizures; however, the underlying neurophysiological mechanisms remain unclear. Auditory steady‐state responses (ASSRs) to repetitive 40‐ and 80‐Hz stimuli are widely used measures of gamma‐band oscillations (GBOs ...

Psychoses of epilepsy: A study comparing the clinical features of patients with focal versus generalized epilepsies

, 2011
In the literature, psychosis of epilepsy (POE) has been described as one of the most frequent psychiatric comorbidities of epilepsy, occurring particularly in association with temporal lobe epilepsy.

Shared molecular pathways in pediatric genetic epilepsies: Insights from a single‐center cohort of 80 patients

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Genetic epilepsies in childhood are highly heterogeneous, and approaches to identify shared biological mechanisms across distinct genetic etiologies remain limited. We aimed to investigate whether genes associated with pediatric genetic epilepsies in our heterogeneous cohort converge on common functional pathways.

Preliminary evidence of long‐term safety and effectiveness of anti‐CGRP drugs for migraine prevention in people with comorbid epilepsy: A 52‐week follow‐up retrospective study

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Migraine and epilepsy frequently coexist, but evidence on the safety of calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP)‐targeting therapies in people with epilepsy is lacking. We evaluated long‐term migraine and epilepsy outcomes in a real‐world multicenter retrospective cohort of adults with comorbid migraine and epilepsy treated with anti‐CGRP ...

Neurometabolite abnormalities and associations with epilepsy duration and cognition in patients with idiopathic generalized epilepsies

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study investigated whether idiopathic generalized epilepsies (IGEs) are associated with neuroinflammation by measuring neurometabolite levels and brain temperature using whole‐brain magnetic resonance spectroscopy imaging (MRSI).
