Therapeutic Prospects of Ketamine for Cataplexy in Narcolepsy Type 1: Evidence from a Human Case and a Murine Model

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Narcolepsy type 1 is characterized by cataplexy, for which current treatments targeting monoaminergic, histaminergic, and GABAergic pathways may be ineffective or poorly tolerated. We report the case of a 34‐year‐old man with narcolepsy type 1, intolerant to standard therapies, who experienced marked and sustained cataplexy reduction with morning ...

Selective REM Sleep Deprivation Improves Expectation-Related Placebo Analgesia.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The placebo effect is a neurobiological and psychophysiological process known to influence perceived pain relief. Optimization of placebo analgesia may contribute to the clinical efficacy and effectiveness of medication for acute and chronic pain ...

The hidden burden of sleep in adolescents with idiopathic generalized epilepsy

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Idiopathic Generalized Epilepsies (IGEs) are electroclinical syndromes characterized by distinct seizure types, EEG patterns, and presumed polygenic inheritance. While seizure prognosis is often favorable, sleep disturbances, behavioral and emotional difficulties, and executive function impairment are common, especially during ...

Progress report on new epilepsy treatments: A summary of the Eighteenth Eilat Conference on New Antiepileptic Drugs and Devices (EILAT XVIII). II. Treatments in more advanced clinical development

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract This article summarizes data for 13 investigational treatments for which at least preliminary seizure outcome data in patients with epilepsy were reported at the Eighteenth Eilat Conference on New Antiepileptic Drugs and Devices held in Madrid, Spain, on May 3–6, 2026.

Revisiting the concept that interictal implies asymptomatic: Pulse wave amplitude drops uncover autonomic responses during generalized paroxysmal fast activities

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Interictal electroencephalographic (EEG) activities are generally considered asymptomatic. Pulse wave amplitude drop (PWAD) is a marker of autonomic nervous system (ANS) reactivity linked to cardiovascular risk. Generalized paroxysmal fast activity (GPFA) is a major EEG pattern in different epileptic conditions.

Neuronal avalanches differ from wakefulness to deep sleep - evidence from intracranial depth recordings in humans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Neuronal activity differs between wakefulness and sleep states. In contrast, an attractor state, called self-organized critical (SOC), was proposed to govern brain dynamics because it allows for optimal information coding.

Are sleep paralysis and false awakenings different from REM sleep and from lucid REM sleep? A spectral EEG analysis

open access: yes, 2021
International audienceStudy Objectives:To determine the polysomnography characteristics during sleep paralysis, false awakenings, and lucid dreaming (which are states intermediate to rapid eye movement [REM] sleep and wake but exceptionally observed in ...

Epileptic arousals: A neglected clinical entity

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epileptic arousals (EAs) are seizures characterized solely by arousal from sleep. EAs are unrecognized in current seizure classifications. Their subtle semiology and inconsistently detectable ictal activity in scalp electroencephalography (EEG) complicate differentiation from physiological arousals (PAs). This study characterizes EAs

Theta oscillations, epileptogenesis, and focal seizures in rodent models of mesial temporal lobe epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Theta oscillations (4–12 Hz) are a prominent network rhythm within hippocampal and parahippocampal structures. Driven by cholinergic and γ‐aminobutyric acidergic inputs originating from the medial septum, physiological theta gates network excitability to control spatial navigation, memory encoding, and sensorimotor integration during specific ...
