Abstract Pediatric drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) remains a significant clinical challenge, with few effective pharmacological options. This European multicenter retrospective study assessed the real‐world efficacy, tolerability, and retention of off‐label cenobamate (CNB) in 108 children and adolescents with DRE (median age: 13.83 years, range 3.9–19.8)

Evaluation of the Efficacy of Carbamazepine and Oxcarbazepine in Trigeminal Neuralgia
Introduction: Trigeminal neuralgia is characterized by the presence of sudden, intense and repetitive orofacial pain generated in one or more branches of the trigeminal nerve; carbamazepine and oxcarbazepine are the first-line drugs for its treatment ...

Abstract Objective About one third of epilepsy patients are drug‐resistant. Resective epilepsy surgery remains a key treatment option but depends critically on accurate identification of the seizure onset zone (SOZ), which is still guided mainly by subjective visual inspection of electrophysiological signals.

Cognitive Function During Oxcarbazepine Treatment for Partial Seizures
The effect of oxcarbazepine compared to standard antiepileptic drug therapy (carbamazepine and valproate) on cognitive function in 112 children and adolescents (ages 6 to 16 years) with newly diagnosed partial seizures was investigated in a multicenter ...

Association of Vitamin D Deficiency with Antiepileptic Drugs in Patients with Epilepsy
Objectives:Long-term usage of antiepileptic drugs is associated with abnormal bone mineral metabolism, osteoporosis and an increased risk of fracture. The main mechanism seems to be focused on vitamin D deficiency that arises from antiepileptics.

Abstract Drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) affects approximately one‐third of patients with epilepsy and represents a major unmet clinical need. While traditional hypotheses of pharmacoresistance have focused on alterations in drug targets, efflux transporter overexpression, and intrinsic disease severity, the gut microbiome has recently emerged as a ...

ABSTRACT Drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHRs) are common in children and are diagnostically challenging, with cutaneous manifestations being the most common presentation. Patch testing (PT) is a well‐established tool for investigating delayed T‐cell‐mediated reactions and is widely used in patients with contact dermatitis.
