Epilepsy in dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy: A systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]
Summary of key clinical and electrophysiological characteristics of DRPLA‐related epilepsy from a systematic review and meta‐analysis of 1,191 patients. DRPLA patients with epilepsy showed earlier disease onset, longer CAG repeat expansion, and a tendency toward paternal inheritance. EEG findings frequently included photoparoxysmal responses.

First Reported Case of CLN5 Disease in Japan: Identification of a Novel Homozygous Pathogenic Variant Through Whole Genome Sequencing. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCL) belong to a group of inherited neurodegenerative diseases characterized by psychomotor regression, seizures, and visual impairment, resulting from intracellular accumulation of lipofuscin. CLN5, a subtype typically manifesting between ages 4 to 17, is particularly rare in non‐Finnish populations.

Seizures and electroencephalographic findings in inborn errors of metabolism: Clues to differential diagnosis in the neonatal period, infancy, childhood and adolescence, and review of the literature. [PDF]
Abstract Although inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) are a rare cause of epilepsy, seizures are a common presentation in these disorders. Seizures in IEM are frequently refractory to conventional anti‐seizure medication and might warrant initiation of specific treatments based on vitamins or dietary modifications or provision of alternative substrates ...

Functional network dynamics in photosensitive epilepsy depend on stimulation frequency and photoparoxysmal electroencephalographic response. [PDF]
Abstract Objective Photosensitive epilepsy (PSE) is a reflex epilepsy, where abnormal electroencephalographic (EEG) responses are induced by photic stimulation. Photosensitivity is classified into four types based on the propagation of the brain's response to visual stimuli.

Familial adult myoclonus epilepsy: A comprehensive diagnostic strategy for clinical practice. [PDF]
Abstract Familial adult myoclonus epilepsy (FAME) is a genetic neurological disorder characterized by cortical myoclonus and epileptic seizures with clinical features that overlap with other movement disorders and epileptic syndromes, particularly essential tremor (ET), progressive myoclonic epilepsy (PME), and juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME).

Adjunctive acetazolamide for drug-resistant seizures in SLC6A1-related neurodevelopmental disorder: An exploratory case series. [PDF]
Abstract Pathogenic variants in SLC6A1 cause a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by developmental delay with behavioral disturbances, seizures, often pharmacoresistant, and a spectrum of movement disorders such as ataxia. A similar triad is observed in other monogenic conditions, such as SLC2A1, CHD2, and CACNA1A‐related disorders, where ...

Epilepsy Phenotypic Spectrum of NUS1-Related Disorder: A Case Series. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Epilepsy with myoclonic and atonic seizures (EMAtS), also known as Doose syndrome, accounts for 1%–2% of childhood epilepsies, and various genes have been implicated in causing this epilepsy syndrome. NUS1 encodes for Nogo‐B receptor (NgBR), which stabilizes the dehydrodolichyl‐diphosphate synthase complex in the endoplasmic ...

Seminar in Epileptology: Normal awake and sleep patterns, interictal abnormalities, and ictal patterns on scalp EEG. [PDF]
Abstract The accurate interpretation of scalp EEG remains an instrumental diagnostic component of epilepsy care. Knowledge of what constitutes normal EEG findings, non‐epileptiform abnormalities, and epileptiform patterns—both ictal and interictal—is essential for appropriate patient management.
