Chinese expert consensus on disclosure of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy

Chinese Journal of Contemporary Neurology and Neurosurgery
Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) refers to the sudden, unexpected, and witnessed or unwitnessed death of a patient with epilepsy, with or without evidence of a seizure, excluding status epilepticus, non-traumatic and non-drowning causes, and ...

Sudden cardiac death in epilepsy disappoints, but epileptologists keep faith

Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2016
Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is the most common cause of death in people with intractable epilepsy. Probably, optimization of seizure control will prevent some of these deaths.

Inhibition of microglial activation with minocycline at the intrathecal level attenuates sympathoexcitatory and proarrhythmogenic changes in rats with chronic temporal lobe epilepsy [PDF]

, 2017
The incidence of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is highest in people with chronic and drug resistant epilepsy. Chronic spontaneous recurrent seizures cause cardiorespiratory autonomic dysfunctions.

Artificial intelligence‐driven closed‐loop devices in sudden unexpected death in epilepsy prediction and prevention: Insights from persons with epilepsy and caregivers

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The absence of strategies for predicting and preventing sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is intertwined with the lack of studies measuring users' attitudes toward potential innovative interventions. The NEUROSENSE Project (http://www.neurosense‐project.eu) aims to evaluate novel SUDEP‐predictive neuroendocrine biomarkers ...

Quantification of respiratory parameters in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy [PDF]

, 2007
Dysfunction affecting cardiac or pulmonary systems has been postulated as a major factor in sudden death in epilepsy (SUDEP). Whilst the majority of studies of cardiorespiratory function have focused on changes during seizures, here we investigate ...

Beyond the spike: Functional (dissociative) seizures as a key to holistic attitudes in seizure disorders

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Epileptologists can improve outcomes through follow‐up and coordination of care for patients with functional seizures. Epileptic and functional seizures share some mechanistic overlap involving interoceptive, emotional, and stress dysregulation, and disorders of agency and perception. Similar psychiatric and neurological comorbidities occur at

Deep brain and cortical stimulation for epilepsy [PDF]

, 2014
Background : Despite optimal medical treatment, including epilepsy surgery, many epilepsy patients have uncontrolled seizures. In the last decades, interest has grown in invasive intracranial neurostimulation as a treatment for these patients ...

Motives and predictors of modified Atkins diet discontinuation as treatment of adults with drug‐resistant epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study was undertaken to explore the motives and predictors of modified Atkins diet (MAD) discontinuation as a treatment of adults with drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE). Methods A single‐center observational longitudinal study was made of a cohort of patients treated with MAD during the first 6 years at a multidisciplinary ...
