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

Levetiracetam Affects Differentially Presynaptic Proteins in Rat Cerebral Cortex

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2017
Presynaptic proteins are potential therapeutic targets for epilepsy and other neurological diseases. We tested the hypothesis that chronic treatment with the SV2A ligand levetiracetam affects the expression of other presynaptic proteins.

The effect of antiseizure medications on the exposure to combined oral contraceptives: A systematic review and network meta‐analysis

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Current recommendations for prescribing combined oral contraceptives (COCs) to people with epilepsy are often conflicting, particularly for weak inducers of cytochrome P450 3A4. We aimed to critically review the literature and compare the antiseizure medication (ASM)‐induced changes in exposure to COC components.

Epilepsy with eyelid myoclonia beyond the classical phenotype: Longitudinal electroclinical observations in a pediatric cohort

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy with eyelid myoclonia is a childhood‐onset generalized epilepsy syndrome with variable recognition of eyelid myoclonia, eye‐closure sensitivity, and photosensitivity during follow‐up. We aimed to characterize longitudinal clinical and electroencephalographic features in pediatric epilepsy with eyelid myoclonia, focusing on ...
