Abstract Objective Patients with newly diagnosed epilepsy exhibit brain white matter (WM) abnormalities, but the temporal dynamics of these are unknown. The literature suggests these alterations might be present before diagnosis. This study investigates WM microstructural integrity using diffusion imaging in non‐lesional (NL), interictal epileptiform ...

Rare dysfunctional SCN2A variants are associated with malformation of cortical development
Abstract Objective SCN2A encodes the voltage‐gated sodium (Na+) channel α subunit NaV1.2, which is important for the generation and forward and back propagation of action potentials in neurons. Genetic variants in SCN2A are associated with a spectrum of neurodevelopmental disorders.

Abstract Objective We comprehensively characterized a large pediatric cohort with focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) type 1 to expand the phenotypic spectrum and to identify predictors of postsurgical outcomes. Methods We included pediatric patients with histopathological diagnosis of isolated FCD type 1 and at least 1 year of postsurgical follow‐up.

Preferential superficial cortical layer activation during seizure propagation
Abstract Objective Focal cortical seizures travel long distances from the onset zone, but the long‐distance propagation pathways are uncertain. In vitro and in vivo imaging techniques have investigated the local spread of seizures but did not elucidate long‐distance spread. Furthermore, classical studies in slices suggested seizure spread locally along

Abstract Objective Surgical resection of the seizure onset zone can be an effective treatment for patients with drug‐resistant focal epilepsy. Clinical, electrophysiological, and imaging data are all gathered prior to surgery to localize the seizure onset zone.

Frequency‐specific alterations in brain connectivity induced by pulvinar stimulation
Abstract Objective Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is emerging as a promising therapy for patients with drug‐resistant epilepsy, particularly those who are either unsuitable for or unresponsive to resective surgery. The potential benefit of DBS in these patients may stem from its ability to reduce excessive brain functional connectivity (FC).

Abstract Objective Few prospective studies exist on newly diagnosed focal epilepsy (NDFE), a critical period for understanding epilepsy's biology and identifying biomarkers and potential interventions. We report a prospective cohort study in patients with NDFE and age‐, sex‐, and education‐matched healthy controls.

Abstract Objective Phosphorylated tau (pTau) has been reported in surgical resections in refractory epilepsy. It is unclear whether this is activity‐driven physiological pTau or signifies the advent of neurodegenerative cascades, relevant to memory decline.
