Biomarkers of Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
La SUDEP (Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy) è una complicanza devastante dell’epilessia e rappresenta la più comune causa di mortalità prematura in epilessia. Studi volti alla definizione di fattori di rischio clinici hanno permesso di identificare

Deep learning–based detection of generalized convulsive seizures using a wrist‐worn accelerometer

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To develop and validate a wrist‐worn accelerometer‐based, deep‐learning tunable algorithm for the automated detection of generalized or bilateral convulsive seizures (CSs) to be integrated with off‐the‐shelf smartwatches. Methods We conducted a prospective multi‐center study across eight European epilepsy monitoring units, collecting

Neuroimaging of Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
BACKGROUND: Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is the leading cause of premature death among people with epilepsy. The precise mechanisms underlying SUDEP remain elusive, though work so far demonstrates a potential centrally mediated event in ...

Patterns of phosphorylated tau accumulation in a spectrum of acquired and developmental brain lesions associated with refractory epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Phosphorylated tau (pTau) has been reported in surgical resections in refractory epilepsy. It is unclear whether this is activity‐driven physiological pTau or signifies the advent of neurodegenerative cascades, relevant to memory decline.

Sudden cardiac death in epilepsy disappoints, but epileptologists keep faith

open access: yesArquivos 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.

Impact of epilepsy surgery on the adaptive behavior of children with drug‐resistant epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study was undertaken to assess the impact of surgical treatment on the adaptive abilities of children with drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) and moderate or severe developmental delays, and to identify factors that could potentially predict adaptive outcomes following epilepsy surgery.
