Ranking of antiseizure medications in a panel of focal seizure models predicts their comparative efficacy in clinical add‐on trials in drug‐resistant focal epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Most antiseizure medications (ASMs) have been discovered by testing in animal models, which are generally thought to predict antiseizure activity in patients. However, it is not known whether any of these models (or a combination of models) can predict whether a novel ASM exhibits higher clinical efficacy in focal drug‐resistant ...

Comparing the Effect of Intravenous Midazolam with Rectal Sodium Valproate in Controlling of Children with Refractory Status Epilepticus

Journal of Research in Medical Sciences, 2006
Background: Refractory status epilepticus usually defined as a seizure lasting at least 60 minutes which is uncontrollable by Diazepam, Phenytoin, or Phenobarbital.

Delayed and deferred surgery associated with cenobamate use in people with drug‐resistant focal epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Cenobamate has been shown to be an effective antiseizure medication for some patients with drug‐resistant focal epilepsy being considered for epilepsy surgery. This retrospective single‐center study evaluated whether surgery was obtained within 12 months for patients who received cenobamate as a treatment during the presurgical ...

Surgical management of status epilepticus: A systematic review

Epilepsia Open
Status Epilepticus (SE), unresponsive to medical management, is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Surgical management is typically considered in these refractory cases. The best surgical approach for affected patients remains unclear; however,

Intracranial electroencephalographic approaches in the intensive care unit: Safety, feasibility, and coverage

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Nonconvulsive epileptic activity is common after acute brain injury and contributes to neuronal injury and poor outcomes. Although intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG) improves detection compared with surface EEG (suEEG), it currently relies on focal recordings of epileptic dynamics.

Factors in the development of refractory status epilepticus in status epilepticus patients

Epilepsy & Behavior
Status epilepticus (SE) is a severe neurological condition associated with a poor prognosis. Refractory status epilepticus (RSE) is a treatment-resistant form of SE with an even worse prognosis. The exact mechanisms underlying the development of RSE are not fully understood.

Management of ring chromosome 20 syndrome: Narrative review and consensus recommendations

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Ring chromosome 20 (ring 20) is a rare genetic condition usually presenting as developmental and epileptic encephalopathy. The disease is caused by fusion of the long and short arms of chromosome 20. Patients are symptomatic even if there is no loss of genetic material.

Unique deficits in place coding across subfields of the hippocampus in a mouse model of temporal lobe epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Memory problems are comorbid with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). Animal models of TLE reveal impairments in spatial firing fields of hippocampal place cells, providing a potential neural substrate for memory problems. Each subfield of the hippocampus carries out unique aspects of spatial memory, yet little is known about how ...

Refractory convulsive status epilepticus in childhood

Srpski arhiv za celokupno lekarstvo, 2004
Refractory convulsive status epilepticus (RCSE) is life-threatening condition, with seizures lasting over one hour and not responding to first and second-line anticonvulsant drug therapy. Any mistreatment or delayed proper treatment significantly increase mortality and neurologic sequelae.

Effect of epileptogenesis on hypercapnic cardioventilatory response in kainic acid rats

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Cardioventilatory failure is the leading mechanism proposed to underlie sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP), which occurs predominantly at night in patients with generalized tonic–clonic seizures. Interictal hypercapnic cardioventilatory responses are suggested to be involved, as they are ablated in chronically epileptic ...
