Lennox–Gastaut syndrome unveiled: Advancing diagnosis, therapies, and advocacy‐insights from the Genoa International Workshop

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Lennox–Gastaut syndrome (LGS) is one of the most severe, yet one of the most discussed, childhood‐onset developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs). Dissent among epileptologists on the definition and minimum set of electroclinical features derives from the high etiological heterogeneity within the syndrome, which could make its ...

Epilepsy in dentatorubral–pallidoluysian atrophy: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Summary of key clinical and electrophysiological characteristics of DRPLA‐related epilepsy from a systematic review and meta‐analysis of 1,191 patients. DRPLA patients with epilepsy showed earlier disease onset, longer CAG repeat expansion, and a tendency toward paternal inheritance. EEG findings frequently included photoparoxysmal responses.

Impact of long‐term treatment with cenobamate on concomitant usage of antiseizure medications: A real‐world retrospective study in Spain

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives This study explored the safety and effectiveness of adjunctive cenobamate (CNB) in patients with different levels of drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) in a real‐world setting, including its impact on the use of co‐antiseizure medication (co‐ASM). Methods This was a single‐center, retrospective, observational study.

Spreading depolarization and its influence on epileptiform activity

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Spreading depolarization (SD) is a transient disruption of electrographic activity that slowly propagates through the gray matter by chemical contiguity, and it is characterized by a large depolarization of neurons and glial cells. SD, which is associated with massive changes in ion homeostasis, including extreme increases in [K+]o, was shown ...

Cardiac‐specific Kv1.1 deficiency alters cardiomyocyte electrophysiology without modifying overall cardiac function or arrhythmia susceptibility

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The leading cause of epilepsy‐related mortality is sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP), resulting from seizure‐induced cardiorespiratory arrest by mechanisms that remain unresolved. Mutations in ion channel genes expressed in both brain and heart represent SUDEP risk factors because they can disrupt neural and cardiac rhythms ...

Heart diseases play a vital role in sudden unexpected death in epilepsy

open access: yesChinese Journal of Contemporary Neurology and Neurosurgery, 2014
Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) indicates sudden death without a definite cause in epileptics, especially during seizures or interictal phase.

Sex‐specific differences in mortality and neurocardiac interactions in the Kv1.1 knockout mouse model of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP)

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The Kcna1 knockout mouse model of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) exhibits sex‐specific differences in SUDEP risk. Female mice exhibit a lower SUDEP risk than males, despite similar seizure characteristics and interictal cardiac function across sexes.
