Super-refractory status epilepticus of unknown ethiology with late onset and fatal outcome. Case report

open access: yes, 2019
Refractory status epilepticus and super-refractory status epilepticus are the most complex neurological manifestations requiring intensive treatment, because they are associated with high mortality.

Unique deficits in place coding across subfields of the hippocampus in a mouse model of temporal lobe epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Memory problems are comorbid with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). Animal models of TLE reveal impairments in spatial firing fields of hippocampal place cells, providing a potential neural substrate for memory problems. Each subfield of the hippocampus carries out unique aspects of spatial memory, yet little is known about how ...

The Treatment and Prognosis of Refractory and Super-Refractory Status Epilepticus

open access: yes, 2017
Refractory status epilepticus (RSE) is defined as status epilepticus (SE) persisting over 60 min and resistant to treatment with benzodiazepines and non-sedating antiepileptic drugs.

Long‐term prognosis of pharmacotherapy in newly diagnosed focal epilepsy patients and the predictive value of baseline seizure timing: A prospective cohort study

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy is a highly heterogeneous neurological disorder with significant prognostic variability. Accurate long‐term outcome prediction remains a clinical challenge. We investigated pharmacotherapeutic prognosis and key predictors, particularly baseline seizure timing, to guide individualized treatment.

A practical approach to in-hospital management of new-onset refractory status epilepticus/febrile infection related epilepsy syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2023
New-onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE) is “a clinical presentation, not a specific diagnosis, in a patient without active epilepsy or other preexisting relevant neurological disorder, with new onset of refractory status epilepticus without a ...

Status epilepticus: Updates on mechanisms and treatments

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Status epilepticus (SE) consists of prolonged, self‐sustaining seizures and is a common neurological emergency that causes respiratory compromise and neuronal injury. Without prompt treatment, the seizures can become resistant to benzodiazepines, leading to the progressive evolution of established, refractory, and super‐refractory SE.

Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Approximately half of all cases of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) do not respond to vigabatrin and hormonal therapies. There is no clear consensus as to the second‐line therapy for IESS. Ketogenic diet (KD) has emerged as an effective treatment for certain drug‐resistant epilepsies and in many cases of IESS.

Genetic landscape of patients with atypical absence status epilepticus: A systematic review

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Atypical absence status epilepticus (AASE) is a rare subtype of nonconvulsive status epilepticus (NCSE), characterized by clouding of consciousness and continuous or fluctuating epileptiform activity, generally at a frequency below 3 Hz. Only sparse literature exists on the genetic conditions associated with it.

Effectiveness and safety of implantable vagus nerve stimulation in people with primary generalized tonic–clonic seizures

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
The impact of prompt diagnosis and treatment, and early predictors of outcome severity in this cohort. Abstract Objective Most therapies for drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) focus on focal‐onset seizures, the most common seizure types. Studying primary generalized tonic–clonic seizures (PGTCS) is more challenging due to diagnostic and recruitment ...
