Reversal of refractory epilepsy in an adult with GAMT deficiency: A case report and comparative literature review [PDF]

Epilepsia Open
Abstract Objective Guanidinoacetate methyltransferase (GAMT) deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive creatine biosynthesis disorder. Reports specifically focusing on adult patients remain scarce. Methods We report a 52‐year‐old female (the oldest documented case of GAMT deficiency to date) presenting with severe intellectual disability, refractory ...

Change in clobazam pharmacokinetics after introduction of cenobamate

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Cenobamate is a new antiseizure medication with an unusually high seizure‐free rate, resulting in frequent use in patients with drug‐resistant epilepsy. Many of these patients are taking clobazam (CLB) at baseline. Cenobamate has important interactions with CLB, requiring CLB dose adjustment in conjunction with cenobamate titration.

Programming of deep brain stimulation of the centromedian nucleus of the thalamus for drug‐resistant epilepsy: A meta‐analysis and proposed programming framework

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Although the centromedian nucleus of the thalamus (CM) is an increasingly considered deep brain stimulation (DBS) target for drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE), there is significant variability in programming practices, which may contribute to heterogenous outcomes.

Prediction of subsequent seizures after acute symptomatic seizures in critically ill children: A clinical–electroencephalographic model

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective We aimed to determine the risk of subsequent seizure or epilepsy diagnosis after acute symptomatic seizures (ASyS) in critically ill children, evaluate whether antiseizure medication (ASM) use is associated with subsequent seizure/epilepsy diagnosis, and develop a simple Seizure/Epilepsy Risk Score to predict subsequent seizure ...

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 ...

Frequent cannabis use and the association with seizure burden in drug‐resistant epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Cannabis use has increased substantially, with modern products characterized by high tetrahydrocannabinol concentrations and variable composition. The relationship between frequent cannabis use and epilepsy outcomes remains uncertain. We examined the association between frequent cannabis use and epilepsy severity, clinical phenotype,
