A guide to neuromodulation in drug‐resistant epilepsy

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuromodulation is approved for the treatment of drug‐resistant epilepsy. It has been increasingly utilized over the past two decades with the approval of deep brain stimulation (DBS) and responsive neurostimulation (RNS) in addition to vagus nerve stimulation (VNS)—particularly in patients who are not deemed to be good resective surgical ...

Synchrotron‐generated microbeams as a radiosurgical alternative for drug‐resistant epilepsies: Proof of concept in a mouse model of mesiotemporal lobe epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective One‐third of patients with epilepsy, particularly those with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE), remain resistant to medication. Resective surgery, the gold standard, is highly invasive and carries significant risks. Here, using a mouse model, we explored the potential of microbeam radiation therapy (MRT), a new technique based on ...

Syndrome‐specific and familial imaging traits in juvenile absence epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Juvenile absence epilepsy (JAE) is an idiopathic generalized epilepsy characterized by absences, generalized tonic–clonic seizures, and cognitive difficulties. In contrast to juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME), where distinct functional and structural brain alterations are well established, it remains unclear whether comparable ...

Distinct thalamic functional connectivity and volume patterns across focal epilepsies in children: A multimodal neuroimaging study

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The thalamus is a key hub in seizure propagation, and its nuclei are emerging targets for neuromodulation. However, the contributions of individual nuclei to epileptic networks remain unclear, particularly in children, who are less studied than adults.

Impaired Social Cognition in Epilepsy: A Review of What We Have Learnt From Neuroimaging Studies

Frontiers in Neurology, 2019
Background: Social cognition refers to specific mental processes that subserve social interaction. Impaired social cognition has been increasingly reported in patients with epilepsy and negatively affects overall quality of life (QOL).

Deep characterization of refractory epilepsy due to mild malformation of cortical development with oligodendroglial hyperplasia (MOGHE) and insights into the role of invasive monitoring

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy surgery is an effective treatment option for patients with medically refractory epilepsy due to mild malformation of cortical development with oligodendroglial hyperplasia (MOGHE). The success of surgery depends on the accurate localization of the epileptogenic zone, which can be challenging due to the subtle imaging ...

Continuous outcome estimation in N‐of‐1 trials for accelerated decision‐making

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective N‐of‐1 trials aim to determine the therapeutic effect for a single individual. This individualized approach necessitates collecting multiple data points over time through repeated alternating periods of active treatment and a comparator or control condition.

Hippocampal sclerosis affects fMR-adaptation of lyrics and melodies in songs [PDF]

, 2013
Songs constitute a natural combination of lyrics and melodies, but it is unclear whether and how these two song components are integrated during the emergence of a memory trace.

Insulin‐like growth factor 1 receptor correlates with verbal memory in ILAE type 2 hippocampal sclerosis

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Long‐term memory deficits are often seen in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). Recently, studies showed that patients with hippocampal sclerosis (HS) type 2, which presents with severe neuron loss in CA1 only, performed within the normal range. However, up to 30% of HS type 2 cases have memory deficits.

Brainstem atrophy in focal epilepsy destabilizes brainstem-brain interactions: Preliminary findings. [PDF]

, 2019
BACKGROUND: MR Imaging has shown atrophy in brainstem regions that were linked to autonomic dysfunction in epilepsy patients. The brainstem projects to and modulates the activation state of several wide-spread cortical/subcortical regions.
