Precision therapies for genetic epilepsies in 2025: Promises and pitfalls
Abstract By targeting the underlying etiology, precision therapies offer an exciting paradigm shift to improve the stagnant outcomes of drug‐resistant epilepsies, including developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. Unlike conventional antiseizure medications (ASMs) which only treat the symptoms (seizures) but have no effect on the underlying ...

The effect of dietary macronutrients on fasting and postprandial responses was examined. Thirty-six healthy dogs were fed a high-carbohydrate (HiCHO) food once daily for 5 weeks, followed by randomization to either a high-protein, low-carbohydrate ...

Status epilepticus: Updates on mechanisms and treatments
Abstract Status epilepticus (SE) consists of prolonged, self‐sustaining seizures and is a common neurological emergency that causes respiratory compromise and neuronal injury. Without prompt treatment, the seizures can become resistant to benzodiazepines, leading to the progressive evolution of established, refractory, and super‐refractory SE.

The multiple hit model of infantile and epileptic spasms: The 2025 update
Abstract Objective Infantile and epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) is a developmental and epileptic encephalopathy manifesting with epileptic spasms and poor neurodevelopmental outcomes. There is an urgent need for the development of more effective and tolerated therapies.

Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms
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.

Carbohydrate reduction for metabolic disease is distinct from the ketogenic diet for epilepsy
Recent reviews of using therapeutic carbohydrate reduction to treat metabolic disease in paediatric patients have consistently made errors in the form of bias against recommending this nutrient-dense eating pattern despite strong evidence for its use in ...

Utility of repeat stereotactic EEG in pediatric patients with tuberous sclerosis
Abstract Objective Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a rare genetic disorder associated with early‐onset drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) secondary to intracranial tubers. Many patients undergo stereo‐EEG (sEEG) for seizure onset localization, sometimes requiring multiple sEEGs and subsequent epilepsy surgeries. Our objective was to evaluate the effects

Abstract Pediatric drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) remains a significant clinical challenge, with few effective pharmacological options. This European multicenter retrospective study assessed the real‐world efficacy, tolerability, and retention of off‐label cenobamate (CNB) in 108 children and adolescents with DRE (median age: 13.83 years, range 3.9–19.8)

Abstract Objective Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) and epilepsy are often associated. Increasing evidence highlights a pivotal role for pathogenic variants in genes encoding synaptic scaffolding proteins. Within this group, TANC2 has recently been implicated in intellectual developmental disorder with autistic features and language delay, with or ...
