The difficult discussion on the deactivation of implantable cardioverter devices at the end of life: a systematic review

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 733-760, April 2025.
Abstract Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) reliably prevent death due to life‐threatening arrhythmias; this may become less relevant in people with more severe heart failure who are reaching the end of life (EOL). This review aimed to explore the ICD deactivation process and identify ethical issues, especially around the initiation of ...

Core outcome set for quality of life of family caregivers of adults with epilepsy: A Delphi consensus study

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy significantly affects daily functioning and health‐related quality of life (HRQOL) of those living with the condition. Less is known about HRQOL of family caregivers of adults with epilepsy, yet the functioning of patients and caregivers is interlinked, and caregivers' unmet support needs are high.

Monthly or menstrual? A scoping review of catamenial epilepsy and non‐menstrual seizure rhythms

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Despite the reported high prevalence of catamenial epilepsy (CE), the condition remains poorly defined, with lack of consensus on what entails a menstrual‐related seizure exacerbation. Emerging evidence of multiday cycles of seizure activity, including about‐monthly cycles, present in both men and women, further confound the ...

Revisiting the concept that interictal implies asymptomatic: Pulse wave amplitude drops uncover autonomic responses during generalized paroxysmal fast activities

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Interictal electroencephalographic (EEG) activities are generally considered asymptomatic. Pulse wave amplitude drop (PWAD) is a marker of autonomic nervous system (ANS) reactivity linked to cardiovascular risk. Generalized paroxysmal fast activity (GPFA) is a major EEG pattern in different epileptic conditions.

Classifying seizures in practice: Testing the 2025 ILAE framework among clinicians in South Africa

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The 2025 International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) seizure classification introduced a basic version for nonspecialists, but its usability is untested. We evaluated whether a multidisciplinary frontline workforce in South Africa could apply it, how consistently, and whether performance improved after self‐directed exposure ...
