Postoperative outcomes and predictors of functional sequelae following hemispheric surgery in Rasmussen's encephalitis: A retrospective cohort study from the global pediatric epilepsy surgery registry

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Rasmussen's encephalitis (RE) is a rare and progressive, immune‐mediated epileptic encephalopathy characterized by drug‐resistant seizures and neurological decline. While hemispheric disconnection (HD) is the gold standard treatment for effective seizure control, this procedure carries significant risk of permanent neurological ...

Video‐based diagnostics supported by artificial intelligence as an opportunity to address the epilepsy diagnostic gap: A narrative review

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite advancements in epilepsy care, a substantial diagnostic gap persists, particularly in resource‐limited settings. This narrative review explores the potential of video‐based diagnostics augmented by artificial intelligence (AI) to address this gap by enabling earlier and more accessible seizure detection and classification.

Abnormal KCC2 expression and function in a mouse model of epilepsy and tuberous sclerosis complex

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Drug‐resistant epilepsy is a common, severe manifestation of the genetic disorder tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). Although significant mechanistic and therapeutic advances have been made in TSC, treatments for seizures remain largely ineffective.

Latitudinal differences on the global epidemiology of infantile spasms: systematic review and meta-analysis

Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2018
Background Infantile spasms represent the catastrophic, age-specific seizure type associated with acute and long-term neurological morbidity. However, due to rarity and heterogenous determination, there is persistent uncertainty of its pathophysiological

Phenotypic and transcriptomic characterization of biallelic RNU2‐2 developmental and epileptic encephalopathy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective A significant proportion of individuals with suspected genetic developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) remain unsolved following whole genome sequencing (WGS). Here we describe biallelic RNU2‐2 variants causing a recently reported, severe, recessive DEE.
