Pediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
Anti‐seizure medications are the first‐line treatment for the vast majority of children with epilepsy, with the advantages of non‐invasive wide adaptability.

Clinical trajectories and medication response in TBC1D24‐related epilepsies

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Biallelic variants in TBC1D24 represent a rare cause of epilepsy and neurodevelopmental disorders, including severe developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. Here, we present the first attempt to delineate the longitudinal disease histories and effectiveness of antiseizure medications (ASMs) in TBC1D24‐related disorders.
