Is posttraumatic stress disorder specific to drug‐resistant epilepsy or a common feature of chronic disease? A comparative study with atrial fibrillation and type 1 diabetes

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is more prevalent in epilepsy than in the general population. However, it remains unclear whether this association is specific to epilepsy or a broader consequence of experiencing unpredictable acute episodes within chronic diseases.

Insulinlike growth factor 1 receptor correlates with verbal memory in ILAE type 2 hippocampal sclerosis

open access: yesEpilepsia, 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.

A prospective randomized crossover trial investigating melatonin versus sleep deprivation for sleep induction in nap electroencephalography

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Electroencephalography (EEG) plays a fundamental role in the diagnosis and classification of epilepsy, and inducing sleep during EEG can improve patient cooperation and enhance the detection of epileptiform activity. Despite its importance, there is currently no standardized approach for sleep induction in pediatric EEG recordings ...

Multimodal approach to characterize surgically removed epileptogenic zone from patients with focal drug‐resistant epilepsy: From operating room to wet lab

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective We have established a comprehensive sample handling protocol designed for the multiscale assessment of epileptogenic tissue. This protocol aims to identify novel therapeutic targets and enhance the diagnosis and stratification of patients with drug‐resistant epilepsy, thereby optimizing their treatment with anti‐seizure medications ...

Sleep enhances gamma oscillations in the seizure onset zone and broadband activity in the irritative zone of focal cortical dysplasia

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) is a leading cause of drug‐resistant epilepsy and is associated with sleep‐related seizures, yet the underlying electrophysiological mechanisms during different brain states remain poorly understood. We investigated whether fast oscillations (FOs) within the seizure onset zone (SOZ) and irritative zone (
