Abstract Objective Patients with uncontrolled epilepsy are at high risk for sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP), which likely results from a pathological, seizure‐induced disruption of vital physiological systems. The objective of this study was to characterize seizure‐induced physiological dysfunction leading to death in SSKcnj16−/− rats and ...

Are Variants Causing Cardiac Arrhythmia Risk Factors in Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy?
Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is the most common cause of premature mortality in individuals with epilepsy. Acute and adaptive changes in heart rhythm in epilepsy implicate cardiac dysfunction as a potential pathogenic mechanism in SUDEP ...

Altered brain connectivity in sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) revealed using resting-state fMRI. [PDF]
The circumstances surrounding SUDEP suggest autonomic or respiratory collapse, implying central failure of regulation or recovery. Characterisation of the communication among brain areas mediating such processes may shed light on mechanisms and ...

Baseline elevation and reduction in cardiac electrical instability assessed by quantitative T-wave alternans in patients with drug-resistant epilepsy treated with vagus nerve stimulation in the AspireSR E-36 trial [PDF]
Objective: Reports of cardiac arrhythmias and cardiac pathology at postmortem examination of patients with epilepsy suggest a possible cardiac component of risk for sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP).

Abstract Objective We retrospectively investigated a cohort of patients with ring chromosome 20 syndrome (r20), aiming to provide information on the prognosis of r20 regarding seizures, cognitive function, comorbidities, and social living. Methods Patients diagnosed with r20 in our hospital were identified, and clinical data were extracted from medical

A Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy [PDF]
Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP) is defined as sudden, unexpected, non-traumatic, and non-drowning death in epilepsy. Postmortem examination must not reveal any anatomical or toxicological causes for SUDEP.

Cardiac investigations in sudden unexpected death in DEPDC5-related epilepsy [PDF]
Objective: Germline loss-of-function mutations in DEPDC5, and in its binding partners (NPRL2/3) of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) repressor GATOR1 complex, cause focal epilepsies and increase the risk of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy ...

Abstract Objective Generalized tonic–clonic seizures (GTCS) are considered to be among the most devastating seizures due to increased health risks. Use of device‐based therapies, such as vagus nerve stimulation (VNS), is common for those resistant to antiseizure medications and important for those in whom resective surgery is not feasible.

Abstract Objective Deep brain stimulation of the centromedian nucleus of the thalamus (CM‐DBS) is an investigational, off‐label treatment for drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) in children. Although emerging evidence supports its safety and efficacy for select indications, the effect of CM‐DBS on quality of life and functional outcomes such as school ...
