Expert Consensus on Clobazam in the Treatment of Refractory Epilepsy (2022)
After regular anti-epileptic drug treatment, the symptoms of most patients with epilepsy can be well controlled or relieved, but 30%-40% of patients with epilepsy, after long-term drug treatment, still suffer from repeated seizures and develop refractory

Abstract The 15q11.2 microdeletion is a chromosomal condition associated with a broad epileptic phenotype. It is differentiated from Angelman syndrome, which is typically a larger maternal deletion in an overlapping area. We describe a patient with a 15q11.2 microdeletion that has clinical and EEG biomarker features similar to those seen in Angelman ...

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 ...

Reflex seizures and epilepsy surgery: A network approach case‐based exploration
Abstract Context Reflex seizures (RS) are defined by their consistent provocation by specific stimuli, encompassing a broad range from elementary sensory inputs to complex cognitive tasks. While RS are often encountered in clinical practice, their surgical management remains sparsely reported and poorly systematized.

Abstract Objective Developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) are characterized by refractory seizures and frequently recurring epileptic activity with neurodevelopmental delay or regression that usually begin in early life. We aimed to define the relationship between electroclinical features and etiology, as well as the genotype–phenotype ...
