Temperature homeostasis disruption and hypothalamic alterations in experimental drug‐resistant epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Elevated body temperature may increase seizure risk, yet the relationship between thermoregulation and seizures, as well as the underlying mechanisms, remains poorly understood. We investigated whether thermoregulatory control is altered in experimental temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), as such impairment could reduce the ability of ...

Gut‐microbiota‐brain Axis and post‐traumatic epilepsy

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract There has been growing evidence that perturbations in gut‐microbiota‐brain axis (GMBA) are involved in mechanisms of chronic sequelae of traumatic brain injury (TBI). This review discusses the connection between GMBA and post‐traumatic epilepsy (PTE), the latter being a common outcome of TBI.

Intestinal microbiome alterations in pediatric epilepsy: Implications for seizures and therapeutic approaches

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract The intestinal microbiome plays a pivotal role in maintaining host health through its involvement in gastrointestinal, immune, and central nervous system (CNS) functions. Recent evidence underscores the bidirectional communication between the microbiota, the gut, and the brain and the impact of this axis on neurological diseases, including ...

Novel planning pipeline utilizing the Surgical Theater system for pediatric epilepsy surgery

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Advances in the analysis and collation of radiographic datasets have enhanced presurgical planning for various neurosurgical procedures, including clipping of cerebral aneurysms, surgical resection of tumors, and arteriovenous malformation management.

Prenatal betamethasone–postnatal N‐methyl‐D‐aspartic acid model of spasms: Update on mechanisms and treatments

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Infantile epilepsy spasms syndrome (IESS), formerly known as infantile spasms or West Syndrome, is a severe epilepsy syndrome affecting about 3 in 10,000 newborns in the United States. Characterized by clusters of epileptic spasms, interictal hypsarrhythmia, and developmental delays, IESS has diverse causes, including structural‐metabolic ...

Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Approximately half of all cases of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) do not respond to vigabatrin and hormonal therapies. There is no clear consensus as to the second‐line therapy for IESS. Ketogenic diet (KD) has emerged as an effective treatment for certain drug‐resistant epilepsies and in many cases of IESS.

The gut microbiome and drug‐resistant epilepsy: Microbiome–antiseizure medication interactions and implications for pharmacoresistance

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
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 ...
