Epilepsy characteristics in patients with muscle‐eye‐brain disease: A systematic review of electroclinical features

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Muscle‐Eye‐Brain disease (MEB) is a dystroglycanopathy that belongs to the congenital muscular dystrophies. Central nervous system manifestations include congenital brain abnormalities, neurodevelopmental delay, and epilepsy, making it a rare but important cause of developmental and epileptic encephalopathy.

Evolution of Cerebral Atrophy in a Patient with Super Refractory Status Epilepticus Treated with Barbiturate Coma

open access: yesCase Reports in Neurological Medicine, 2017
Introduction. Status epilepticus is associated with neuronal breakdown. Radiological sequelae of status epilepticus include diffusion weighted abnormalities and T2/FLAIR cortical hyperintensities corresponding to the epileptogenic cortex.

P2X receptors as targets for the treatment of status epilepticus

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2013
Prolonged seizures are amongst the most common neurological emergencies. Status epilepticus is a state of continuous seizures that is life-threatening and prompt termination of status epilepticus is critical to protect the brain from permanent damage ...

A guide to neuromodulation in drug‐resistant epilepsy

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuromodulation is approved for the treatment of drug‐resistant epilepsy. It has been increasingly utilized over the past two decades with the approval of deep brain stimulation (DBS) and responsive neurostimulation (RNS) in addition to vagus nerve stimulation (VNS)—particularly in patients who are not deemed to be good resective surgical ...

Levetiracetam versus phenytoin for second-line treatment of paediatric convulsive status epilepticus (EcLiPSE): a multicentre, open-label, randomised trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background Phenytoin is the recommended second-line intravenous anticonvulsant for treatment of paediatric convulsive status epilepticus in the UK; however, some evidence suggests that levetiracetam could be an effective and safer alternative. This trial

Can epilepsy be predicted after the first febrile seizure? Insights from machine learning of postictal EEG

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Febrile seizures (FS) are the most common seizures in childhood, yet identifying children at risk of developing epilepsy after the first FS remains challenging. We aimed to evaluate the prognostic potential of machine learning (ML) algorithms applied to post‐febrile seizure electroencephalography (EEG) recordings.
