Precision therapies for genetic epilepsies in 2025: Promises and pitfalls

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract By targeting the underlying etiology, precision therapies offer an exciting paradigm shift to improve the stagnant outcomes of drug‐resistant epilepsies, including developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. Unlike conventional antiseizure medications (ASMs) which only treat the symptoms (seizures) but have no effect on the underlying ...

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

open access: yesMovement 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 ...

Response of oculomotor neurons to eye muscle stretch

open access: yes, 1977
Neurons within the ventral portion of the oculomotor nucleus respond to stretch of extraocular muscles. Response latencies range from 30 to 170 ms. Antidromically identified extraocular motoneurons with this input have slowly conducting axons in the ...

Prelacrimal Transmaxillary‐Orbital Approach for Resection of Lateral Extraconal Orbital Cavernous Hemangioma

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Endoscopic orbital surgery is likely a reasonable option for patients with orbital cavernous hemangiomas (OCH) medial to the optic nerve (ON). The endoscopic resection of OCH lateral to the ON is extremely challenging. Zhou et al. first described the endoscopic prelacrimal recess approach (PLRA) for the management of the maxillary sinus and ...

Unveiling Otolith Mystery: Contemporary Testing Approaches and Their Clinical Significance

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Otolith is a critical component of the peripheral vestibular system responsible for detecting linear acceleration. Dysfunction of the otolith organs can lead to vertigo, balance disturbances, and gaze instability. By elucidating the physiological foundations and evaluating both current and emerging methods for assessing otolith ...

Stromal Cell-Derived Factor-1 and Hepatocyte Growth Factor Guide Axon Projections to the Extraocular Muscles

open access: yes, 2010
Vertebrate eye movements depend on the co-ordinated function of six extraocular muscles that are innervated by the oculomotor, trochlear, and abducens nerves. Here, we show that the diffusible factors, stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) and hepatocyte
