Artificial intelligence for adaptive neuromodulation in drug‐resistant epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) affects nearly one third of people with epilepsy and is associated with substantial cognitive, psychiatric, and mortality burdens. For patients who are not candidates for resection or laser interstitial thermal therapy, neuromodulation therapies such as vagus nerve stimulation, deep brain stimulation, and ...

Epilepsy syndromes classification

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy syndromes are distinct electroclinical entities which have been recently defined by the International League Against Epilepsy Nosology and Definitions Task Force. Each syndrome is associated with “a characteristic cluster of clinical and EEG features, often supported by specific etiologic findings”.

Epileptic drop attacks: More than just atonic seizures

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract “Drop attacks” are not officially defined by the International League Against Epilepsy. Seizures are characterized by a sudden loss of control over the trunk and posture, leading to falls and injuries, and resolving within a few seconds. Accurately diagnosing the type of seizure is usually difficult due to limitations in clinical documentation

Evaluating the task‐specificity model of verbal memory: Regional volumetric analyses in temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Verbal memory tasks differ in their cognitive demands and may rely on distinct left medial temporal structures. One model holds that verbal delayed recall is hippocampal dependent, whereas verbal paired associate learning relies on adjacent rhinal cortex.

Is transanal irrigation the best treatment possibility for low anterior resection syndrome? A multicenter, randomized clinical trial: study protocol

Frontiers in Surgery
BackgroundUp to 50% of patients who undergo rectal resection suffer from various and partly severe functional problems, despite the preservation of the anal sphincter. These complaints are defined as low anterior resection syndrome (LARS).

Prediction of treatment response in infantile epileptic spasms syndrome using EEG phase–amplitude coupling

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Treatment selection for infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) is complex and multifaceted, and currently no electroencephalogram (EEG) biomarkers can guide this decision by predicting treatment response. We tested the predictive value of phase–amplitude coupling (PAC) as IESS patients are known to have elevated PAC.

Neuroanatomical correlates of neuropsychological dysfunction in pediatric pharmacoresistant epilepsy due to focal cortical dysplasia type II

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Children and adolescents with pharmacoresistant epilepsy (PRE) show marked individual cognitive and emotional variability not fully accounted for by demographic or clinical variables. This exploratory pilot study characterizes neuroanatomical abnormalities and their relationships with neuropsychological functioning in a pediatric ...
