KCNJ4 variants disrupt inward‐rectifier potassium channel function and cause refractory epilepsy
Abstract Objective Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder with a strong genetic basis, most frequently arising from ion channel dysfunction. Although multiple inwardly rectifying potassium (Kir) channels have been implicated in epileptogenesis, the contribution of KCNJ4, which encodes the Kir2.3 channel, has not previously been established in human

Abstract Objective Drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) affects approximately one‐third of patients with epilepsy. The molecular heterogeneity underlying DRE remains poorly defined, largely due to limited access to resected brain tissue and substantial genetic diversity.

Defining the end point of status epilepticus: A scoping review and framework for standardization
Abstract Status epilepticus (SE) is a life‐threatening neurological emergency with consensus‐driven definitions for onset but no standardized criteria for its end point. This gap creates uncertainty in research and clinical practice. We conducted a scoping review to evaluate how end points have been defined in SE research and to identify key areas of ...

Abstract Objective This study was undertaken to test whether arterial spin labeling (ASL) performs comparably to 2‐[18F]fluoro‐2‐deoxy‐D‐glucose positron emission tomography (FDG‐PET), the mainstay functional imaging technique, in pediatric lesional epilepsy, while avoiding radiotracer exposure and additional sedation.

Abstract Infants aged 1–24 months with new onset epilepsy frequently present with structural brain abnormalities, yet no updated evidence‐based magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) guidelines exist for this population. The International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) Neuroimaging Task Force developed evidence‐based recommendations for structural brain MRI ...

Abstract Objective Novel epilepsy treatments for patients with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) and focal cortical dysplasia type II (FCDII) are urgently needed. In these patients, mutations in the mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway genes lead to mTOR hyperactivity and focal cortical malformations that frequently cause intractable epilepsy ...

Cong Fu et al. demonstrate that glymphatic system dysfunction is linked to enhanced inhibitory cortical activity using diffusion MRI and EEG. These findings highlight a mechanistic link between perivascular fluid dynamics and neuronal activity, suggesting a role for glymphatic function in maintaining cortical stability in epilepsy.

Stereo‐EEG mapping of visual working memory with task‐related high‐gamma modulations
Abstract Objective We describe a safe, informative, and easy‐to‐implement approach for presurgical mapping of visual working memory (VWM) with stereo‐electroencephalography (SEEG). Methods Twenty‐four patients with drug‐resistant epilepsy, 11–23 years of age, performed a single‐probe change detection VWM task, during SEEG monitoring.

Abstract Objective Accurate localization of epileptic activity remains challenging when interictal discharges are absent or sparse. Although resting‐state functional MRI (rs‐fMRI) is noninvasive, individual rs‐fMRI metrics provide inconsistent and incomplete localization.
