Precision therapies for genetic epilepsies in 2025: Promises and pitfalls
Abstract By targeting the underlying etiology, precision therapies offer an exciting paradigm shift to improve the stagnant outcomes of drug‐resistant epilepsies, including developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. Unlike conventional antiseizure medications (ASMs) which only treat the symptoms (seizures) but have no effect on the underlying ...

Absence seizures: Update on signaling mechanisms and networks
Abstract Absence seizures (AS) are a hallmark of genetic generalized epilepsies (GGE), characterized by brief episodes of impaired consciousness accompanied by electroencephalographic spike‐and‐wave discharges (SWDs). Traditionally attributed to cortico‐thalamo‐cortical (CTC) dysrhythmia, emerging evidence suggests a more intricate pathophysiological ...

[Childhood spinal muscular atrophies].
Current knowledge of infantile spinal muscular atrophies (ISA) is reviewed by analyzing cases seen by the neurology service at Hospital Sant Joan de Déu in Barcelona from 1978 through 1986. The assessment is mainly clinical. The total number of patients is 60, as follows: 24 with severe or type I forms, 24 with intermediate or type II forms and 12 with
