Preoperative limbic cortical thinning in mesial temporal lobe epilepsy surgical candidates is associated with pre‐existing and de novo postoperative depression

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Depression is common in mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (mTLE), but its neuroanatomical basis—and overlap with major depressive disorder (MDD)—remains poorly defined. We investigated whether the cortical and subcortical alterations reported in MDD are also present in mTLE and leveraged the frequent occurrence of depression after ...

The burden of the postictal state in epilepsy: A prospective, single‐center observational cohort study

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The postictal state is a major yet underrecognized component of the epilepsy burden. We aimed to develop a structured patient‐reported instrument to quantify postictal recovery, characterize its multidimensional burden, and identify demographic, clinical, psychiatric, and treatment‐related factors associated with postictal severity ...

Genetic testing among patients evaluated for epilepsy surgery

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Genetic testing performed to identify the underlying etiology of epilepsy has become increasingly common and is now being recommended as part of the presurgical evaluation for epilepsy surgery. This study aimed to characterize the types of genetic tests performed in patients evaluated for epilepsy surgery and assess how genetic ...

The effectiveness of adding on or switching antiseizure medications after the first fails to control focal epilepsy: A systematic review of randomized controlled trials

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Focal epilepsy constitutes 60–70% of epilepsy, and up to half of patients do not achieve seizure freedom with their first antiseizure medication (ASM). When the first ASM fails, evidence guiding whether to switch or add‐on another ASM and which ASMs to use is limited. This review synthesized evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on

KBG syndrome: A scoping review of electroclinical features of patients with epilepsy

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives KBG syndrome is a rare autosomal developmental disorder caused by pathogenic variants of the ANKRD11 gene. This scoping review aimed to explore all current literature data regarding clinical and electroencephalographic features of patients with KBG syndrome and epilepsy. Materials and Methods We conducted a literature
