Behavioral and epileptic phenotypes in a CHD2‐related developmental delay model

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Heterozygous loss‐of‐function mutations in the CHD2 gene, encoding chromodomain helicase DNA‐binding protein 2, are associated with severe childhood onset epilepsy, global developmental delay, and autistic features. Animal models that accurately recapitulate human phenotypes are crucial for understanding rare neurodevelopmental ...

Development and validation of a deep survival model to predict time to seizure from routine electroencephalography

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study was undertaken to develop and validate a deep survival model (EEGSurvNet) that analyzes routine electroencephalography (EEG) to predict individual seizure risk over time, comparing its performance to traditional clinical predictors such as interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs).

Interictal and seizure‐onset scalp electroencephalographic patterns in malformations of cortical development

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Malformations of cortical development (MCDs) are a frequent cause of drug‐resistant epilepsy and a common indication for resective epilepsy surgery. As magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) lacks sensitivity for subtle MCDs, supplemental diagnostic tools are needed.

Neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio at admission helps to predict the need for blood transfusion after vaginal delivery

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study assesses the association between complete blood count (CBC) parameters, including the neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and the platelet‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and predicts the need for postpartum packed red blood cell transfusion (pRBCT).
