Data‐Driven Insights into Hyperkinetic Disorders in Neurodevelopmental Syndromes and Epileptic Encephalopathies

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Childhood‐onset hyperkinetic movement disorders occur in a range of genetic conditions. Recently, there has been an increase in recognition of hyperkinetic movement disorders, mainly dystonia, chorea and dyskinesia, with monogenic conditions associated with neurodevelopmental delay (NDD) and also with developmental and epileptic ...

Neurotrophic Signaling, Sleep Physiology, and Retinal Neuroprotection: Integrative Mechanisms and Therapeutic Implications for Glaucoma

Sensory Neuroscience, EarlyView.
Glaucoma is increasingly understood as a neurodegenerative disorder shaped by sleep and circadian physiology, not intraocular pressure alone. Sleep loss and obstructive sleep apnea suppress BDNF–TrkB neurotrophic signaling, impair sleep‐dependent glymphatic clearance, and trigger microglial neuroinflammation and vascular insult at the optic nerve head,

Going silent? Evidence for independent losses of acoustic communication in tree crickets (Insecta, Orthoptera, Grylloidea, Oecanthidae)

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
Our ancestral state reconstruction in tree crickets reveals multiple independent and irreversible losses of sound‐producing and ‐receiving structures, supporting the convergent evolution of the silent phenotype. We demonstrate strong evolutionary integration between forewings and tympana, although the discovery of ‘silent listeners′ and ‘deaf singers ...

Muscle cramp susceptibility is associated with muscle‐specific modulation of human motoneuron discharge patterns

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Muscle cramps are painful, involuntary contractions thought to arise from altered spinal motoneuron excitability, potentially involving persistent inward currents (PICs). We examined whether cramp susceptibility is associated with altered PIC‐related motoneuron behaviour and whether electrically induced cramp modifies these estimates.

Real‐world outcomes of responsive neurostimulation in patients with Lennox–Gastaut syndrome: A multicenter retrospective study

Epilepsia Open, Volume 11, Issue 4, Page 1244-1254, August 2026.
Abstract Objective Lennox–Gastaut syndrome (LGS) is a severe developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE) characterized by multiple seizure types and high resistance to antiseizure medication (ASM), often necessitating nonpharmacologic therapies, including neuromodulation.

Investigation of the “Not Better Explained” Diagnosis Criteria in Sleep Disorder Classifications: A Systematic Content Analysis and Critical Review

Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 35, Issue 4, August 2026.
The “Not Better Explained” (NBE) criterion plays a key role in preventing diagnostic misclassification by structuring causal reasoning in sleep medicine. This systematic content analysis compares the use, wording, and excluded conditions of NBE criteria across the ICSD‐3‐TR and DSM‐5‐TR for ten major sleep disorders.
