Investigations in West Syndrome: Which, When and Why
Pediatric Neurology Briefs, 2015 Investigators from the National Infantile Spasms Consortium (NISC) in the USA studied the etiology of new-onset infantile spasms (IS) in 251 infants (mean age at onset, 7.1, range, 0.1-22.7 months).

Efficacy and tolerability of the Galanin Analog NAX 5055 in the multiple-hit rat model of symptomatic infantile spasms [PDF]
, 2013 Infantile spasms are seizures manifesting in infantile epileptic encephalopathies that are associated with poor epilepsy and cognitive outcomes. The current therapies are not always effective or are associated with serious side effects.

Genetic Classification of Infantile Spasms
Pediatric Neurology Briefs, 2012 Researchers from University of Washington, Seattle, WA, and Washington University, St Louis, MO propose a genetic and biologic classification of infantile spasms. Infantile spasms are of 2 main groups: those with known or unknown predisposing genotypes.

A team science approach to discover novel targets for infantile spasms (IS)
Epilepsia Open, 2021 Infantile spasms (IS) is a devastating epilepsy syndrome that typically begins in the first year of life. Symptoms consist of stereotypical spasms, developmental delay, and electroencephalogram (EEG) that may demonstrate Hypsarhythmia.
