Pediatric new‐onset seizure‐like events: Yield of diagnostic work‐up

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To assess the diagnostic yield of ancillary investigations in children presenting with new‐onset seizure‐like events (SLEs) at a tertiary first seizure clinic (FSC). Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study including 1213 children evaluated for new‐onset SLEs at a tertiary FSC.

Correlation of polygenic risk score and clinical phenotype in patients with genetic generalized epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The polygenic risk score (PRS) for individuals with genetic generalized epilepsy (GGE) quantifies the common risk variants in genes identified in genome‐wide association studies. We hypothesized that the phenotype of GGE patients differs based on their GGE PRS. Methods We identified participants with highest (n = 59) versus lowest (n

Deep whole genome sequencing of epileptogenic brain lesions

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Malformations of cortical development and low‐grade epilepsy‐associated tumors often cause drug‐resistant lesional focal epilepsy (LFE) amenable to surgical treatment. Genetic testing of resected brain tissue can provide diagnostic and mechanistic information and may eventually support personalized treatment approaches.

Gut‐microbiota‐brain Axis and post‐traumatic epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract There has been growing evidence that perturbations in gut‐microbiota‐brain axis (GMBA) are involved in mechanisms of chronic sequelae of traumatic brain injury (TBI). This review discusses the connection between GMBA and post‐traumatic epilepsy (PTE), the latter being a common outcome of TBI.

Genetic epilepsies with myoclonic seizures: Mechanisms and syndromes

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Genetic epilepsy with myoclonic seizures encompasses a heterogeneous spectrum of conditions, ranging from benign and self‐limiting forms to severe, progressive disorders. While their causes are diverse, a significant proportion stems from genetic abnormalities.

Neonatal seizures: Advances in diagnosis and management

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract The International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) created the ILAE Neonatal Task Force that classified neonatal seizures, defined neonatal epilepsy syndromes, and specified treatment guidelines. These frameworks, in addition to improved access to genetic testing and other recent advances, have revolutionized the diagnosis and management of ...
