Intersection of epilepsy and cardiac health: Insights from electrocardiography and syndromic associations

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy is a chronic neurological condition marked by recurrent, uncontrolled seizures. Identifying comorbidities in epilepsy is critical for preventing mortality. Among these, the autonomic nervous system's role in epilepsy often manifests as cardiac disorders. Patients with epilepsy (PWE), particularly those with poorly controlled seizures,

What defines response to vagus nerve stimulation in children with drug‐resistant epilepsy? A prospective cohort study from the CONNECTiVOS collaboration

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Responsiveness to vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) in children with drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) is often defined based on reduction in seizure frequency, typically at the 50% threshold, with limited consideration to the effects of therapy on seizure severity and health‐related quality of life (HRQoL). In the current report, we sought

Cannabidiol attenuates epileptic phenotype and increases survival in a mouse model of developmental and epileptic encephalopathy type 1

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy type 1 (DEE1) is a rare drug‐resistant pediatric epilepsy caused by trinucleotide repeat expansions in the X‐linked ARX gene, leading to elongation of the first polyalanine tract. It presents with early onset tonic seizures or spasms, developmental and cognition delay, and high risk of ...

Clioquinol as a new therapy in epilepsy: From preclinical evidence to a proof‐of‐concept clinical study

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) affects >25 million people worldwide and is often associated with neuroinflammation. Increasing evidence links deficiency or malfunctioning of the enzyme phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH), which converts 3‐phosphoglycerate to generate serine and the neurotransmitter glycine, with (drug‐resistant ...

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective A joint International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology–International League Against Epilepsy (IFCN‐ILAE) Taskforce was created to explore the published evidence for initial EEG recordings in the evaluation of patients who experienced their first unprovoked seizure, and to determine the diagnostic value of EEG in supporting the ...
