Severe, Non‐apneic Respiratory Dysfunction and Hypoxia following Generalized Convulsive Seizures

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is a devastating consequence of some generalized convulsive seizures (GCS). Recent work has focused on seizure related apnea as a biomarker of SUDEP risk, frequently without characterizing the adequacy of non‐apneic ventilation or identifying other dysfunctional breathing patterns.

Possible therapeutic repositioning of valproic acid: From epileptic seizures to acute kidney injury

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Valproic acid, an anticonvulsant, may be repositioned to prevent acute kidney injury due to ischemia followed by reperfusion. It preserves renal functions, electrolyte homeostasis and active sodium transport in kidney tubules, and blocks the onset of hypertension.

Detection of focal impaired awareness seizures using a biometric shirt

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective In recent years, seizure detection using wearable technology has gained significant attention in research. Most studies, however, have focused on detecting generalized or focal to bilateral tonic–clonic seizures. This study evaluates the feasibility of using a biometric shirt to detect focal impaired awareness seizures (FIAS) by ...

Vascular dysfunction in women with recurrent pregnancy loss: Possible association with antiphospholipid antibodies

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 169, Issue 1, Page 206-214, April 2025.
Abstract Objective Antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) are recognized to have a pivotal role in recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) and cardiovascular disease. Therefore, we assessed the vascular function of women with RPL and examined the association with each type of aPL.

Transient limb ischemia induces remote ischemic preconditioning in vivo [PDF]

, 2002
Background-Ischemic preconditioning reduces local tissue injury caused by subsequent ischemia-reperfusion (IR), but may also have a salutary effect on IR injury of tissues remote from those undergoing preconditioning.

Metabolic and hormonal serum markers in early childhood: Follow‐up of a randomized controlled trial during infancy evaluating a modified, low‐protein infant formula

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives High protein intake during infancy has been linked to accelerated weight gain and increased obesity risk. This study aimed to examine the effects of a low‐protein formula during the first 6 months of life on blood metabolic and hormonal markers during early childhood. Methods Formula‐fed infants (<45 days) were randomized to receive
