Ketogenic diet therapy for children with super‐refractory status epilepticus in intensive care: International clinical practice recommendations

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective We aimed to create practical recommendations to support healthcare teams starting ketogenic diet therapy (KDT) for children with super‐refractory status epilepticus in intensive care settings. Methods A literature review was conducted to extract published data on patient selection, diet prescription, diet initiation, monitoring, fine‐

Progressive Brain Atrophy in Super-refractory Status Epilepticus [PDF]

open access: yesJAMA Neurology, 2016
Prolonged seizures in super-refractory status epilepticus (SRSE) have been shown to cause neuronal death and reorganization, and visual inspection in individual case studies has demonstrated progressive cortical and subcortical atrophy. At present, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies that evaluate brain atrophy in SRSE are lacking.To document and ...

Characteristics and long‐term outcomes of children with confirmed focal cortical dysplasia type 1 after epilepsy surgery: A population‐based study

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Focal cortical dysplasia type 1 (FCD1) is a rare and heterogeneous cause of drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) in children. Its clinical characteristics remain poorly understood, and surgical outcomes may be less favorable than in FCD2. We conducted a population‐based study to characterize the clinical presentation and long‐term seizure ...

Distinct clinical clusters of paediatric patients with status epilepticus: Retrospective cohort study

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Large Swiss cohort of paediatric status epilepticus demonstrates that treatment delay (> 60 min) directly contributes to morbidity. Machine‐learning analysis of routine clinical data identifies three distinct patient clusters: febrile status epilepticus, severe para‐infectious status epilepticus, and status epilepticus in children with known epilepsy ...

Patterns of Postictal Abnormalities in Relation to Status Epilepticus in Adults

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 13, Issue 6, Page 1118-1128, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Abnormalities on peri‐ictal diffusion‐weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI‐PMAs) are well‐established for patients with status epilepticus (SE), but knowledge on patterns of DWI‐PMAs and their prognostic impact is sparse. Methods This systematic review and individual participant data meta‐analysis included observational studies ...
