A translational multimodal machine‐learning prototype predicting valproate response in epilepsy treatment

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy affects ~1% of the global population and often requires lifelong antiseizure medication (ASM) therapy. Valproic acid (VPA) is a commonly prescribed first‐line ASM, yet only approximately half of patients achieve sustained seizure freedom. Treatment selection remains largely empirical.

Long‐term prognosis of pharmacotherapy in newly diagnosed focal epilepsy patients and the predictive value of baseline seizure timing: A prospective cohort study

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy is a highly heterogeneous neurological disorder with significant prognostic variability. Accurate long‐term outcome prediction remains a clinical challenge. We investigated pharmacotherapeutic prognosis and key predictors, particularly baseline seizure timing, to guide individualized treatment.

Compensatory rearrangement of parvalbumin interneuron voltage‐gated sodium channel subunits in a mouse model of Dravet syndrome

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Heterozygous loss‐of‐function variants in the gene SCN1A, which encodes the voltage‐gated sodium channel (VGSC) pore‐forming (α) subunit NaV1.1, lead to a spectrum of neurological disease, including Dravet syndrome. NaV1.1 is prominently expressed at the proximal portion of the axon initial segment (AIS) of fast‐spiking γ‐aminobutyric ...

Creativity and its link to epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Creative thinking represents one of our highest‐order cognitive processes, involving multiple cortical structures and an intricate interplay between several cortical and subcortical networks. It results in novel ideas that translate to useful products or concepts. The evolutionary purpose of creativity is therefore apparent, as it advances our

Timing is everything: The effect of early‐life seizures on developing neuronal circuits subserving spatial memory

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Spatial memory, the aspect of memory involving encoding and retrieval of information regarding one's environment and spatial orientation, is a complex biological function incorporating multiple neuronal networks. Hippocampus‐dependent spatial memory is not innate and emerges during development in both humans and rodents.

Epilepsy syndromes classification

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy syndromes are distinct electroclinical entities which have been recently defined by the International League Against Epilepsy Nosology and Definitions Task Force. Each syndrome is associated with “a characteristic cluster of clinical and EEG features, often supported by specific etiologic findings”.

Febrile status epilepticus and epileptogenesis: The FEBSTAT study

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract The multicenter FEBSTAT study (Consequences of Prolonged Febrile Seizures in Childhood: https://grantome.com/grant/NIH/R37‐NS043209‐12; PI S. Shinnar) examined the outcome of febrile status epilepticus (FSE) in over 200 prospectively enrolled infants, with many followed for 10 years after FSE.
