Ictal ECG-based assessment of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy
IntroductionPrevious case-control studies of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) patients failed to identify ECG features (peri-ictal heart rate, heart rate variability, corrected QT interval, postictal heart rate recovery, and cardiac rhythm ...

Risk Assessment for Sudden Death in Epilepsy: The SUDEP-7 inventory
Background: Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP) is a major cause of death in those with drug resistant epilepsy. There is a need for inventories and biomarkers associated with the risk for SUDEP.

The Cerebellum and SIDS: Disordered Breathing in a Mouse Model of Developmental Cerebellar Purkinje Cell Loss during Recovery from Hypercarbia. [PDF]
The cerebellum assists coordination of somatomotor, respiratory, and autonomic actions. Purkinje cell alterations or loss appear in sudden infant death and sudden death in epilepsy victims, possibly contributing to the fatal event. We evaluated breathing

Seizures, Cerebral Shutdown, and SUDEP [PDF]
Several potential pathophysiologic phenomena, including “cerebral shutdown,” are postulated to be responsible for SUDEP. Since the evidence for a seizure-related mechanism is strong, a poor understanding of the physiology of human seizure termination is a major handicap.

Postictal serotonin levels are associated with peri-ictal apnea. [PDF]
ObjectiveTo determine the relationship between serum serotonin (5-HT) levels, ictal central apnea (ICA), and postconvulsive central apnea (PCCA) in epileptic seizures.MethodsWe prospectively evaluated video EEG, plethysmography, capillary oxygen ...

The Sodium Channel B4-Subunits are Dysregulated in Temporal Lobe Epilepsy Drug-Resistant Patients [PDF]
Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is the most common type of partial epilepsy referred for surgery due to antiepileptic drug (AED) resistance. A common molecular target for many of these drugs is the voltage-gated sodium channel (VGSC).

Noradrenergic pathway from the locus coeruleus to heart is implicated in modulating SUDEP
Summary: Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is the leading cause of death among epilepsy patients. However, the underlying mechanism remains elusive.
