Exploring pathways leading to drug‐resistant epilepsy for patients with cryptogenic new onset refractory status epilepticus

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Cryptogenic new onset refractory status epilepticus (cNORSE) carries high risks of long‐term disability and post‐NORSE epilepsy, but mechanisms remain unclear. We aimed to assess the predictive value of inflammatory and brain injury biomarkers and determine whether immune disturbances persist in the chronic phase. Methods We enrolled

STATUS EPILEPTICUS IN A PATIENT WITH RASMUSSEN’S ENCEPHALITIS

Alʹmanah Kliničeskoj Mediciny, 2016
We describe clinical case of Rasmussen's encephalitis in a 24-year-old woman that occurred during her hospital stay. Its clinical manifestations included a  clonic movement disorder and partial epilepsy.

The changing landscape in epilepsy imaging: Unmasking subtle and unique entities

Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, 2022
Dramatic changes have occurred recently in the field of epilepsy, including a fundamental shift in the etiology of epileptogenic substrates found at surgery. Hippocampal sclerosis is no longer the most common etiology found at epilepsy surgery and this

Serum NfL, GFAP, and p‐tau217 in adults with drug‐resistant epilepsy and intellectual disabilities: Signs of ongoing neural injury

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Adults with epilepsy and intellectual disabilities (IDs) may be at increased risk of dementia, but clinical evaluation is complex and use of conventional biomarkers is often considered too invasive. We explored abnormality of serum neurofilament light chain (NfL), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), and phosphorylated tau‐217 (p ...

Seizures in autoimmune encephalitis: Findings from an EEG pooled analysis [PDF]

, 2020
Purpose: Seizures are common in autoimmune encephalitis (AE), and an extensive work-up is required to exclude alternative etiologies. The aim of our study was to identify possible clinical/EEG peculiarities suggesting the immune-mediated origin of late ...

Glymphatic dysfunction couples with cortical excitation–inhibition imbalance in epilepsy: Evidence from Rasmussen encephalitis

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Cong Fu et al. demonstrate that glymphatic system dysfunction is linked to enhanced inhibitory cortical activity using diffusion MRI and EEG. These findings highlight a mechanistic link between perivascular fluid dynamics and neuronal activity, suggesting a role for glymphatic function in maintaining cortical stability in epilepsy.

False localization of ictal activity by scalp EEG in candidates for hemispherectomy [PDF]

, 1993
Two patients with intractable seizures and large structural lesions were candidates for hemispherectomy for seizure control. Repeated ictal EEGs recorded from scalp falsely localized seizure onset to the contralateral hemisphere. Intracarotid amobarbital

Epilepsy syndromes classification

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy syndromes are distinct electroclinical entities which have been recently defined by the International League Against Epilepsy Nosology and Definitions Task Force. Each syndrome is associated with “a characteristic cluster of clinical and EEG features, often supported by specific etiologic findings”.

Should "migralepsy" be considered an obsolete concept? A multicenter retrospective clinical/EEG study and review of the literature. [PDF]

, 2011
The few reports that have been published on the current International Classification of Headache Disorders, Second Edition (ICHD-II), criteria for migralepsy and hemicrania epileptica have highlighted the considerable confusion regarding this "hot topic"
