Comparison of ethanol yield from pretreated lignocellulo-starch biomass under fed-batch SHF or SSF modes

open access: yesHeliyon, 2018
The ethanol yields from lignocellulo-starch biomass (peels of sweet potato, elephant foot yam, tannia, greater yam and beet root) by fed-batch separate hydrolysis and fermentation (F-SHF) and simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (F-SSF) using ...

Localizing value of cutaneous ictal phenomena: A systematic review

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Clinical observation of autonomic signs during seizures can aid in localizing the epileptogenic zone (EZ). We performed a systematic review and meta‐analysis to evaluate the localizing value of ictal cutaneous phenomena—piloerection, sweating, pallor, and flushing—in focal epilepsy and their relevance to presurgical evaluation ...

Facilitating the timely diagnosis of Lennox–Gastaut syndrome: A checklist to support clinical practice

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To develop and evaluate a simple‐to‐use checklist to support physicians with the timely diagnosis of Lennox–Gastaut syndrome (LGS). Methods A panel of 10 pediatric and adult epileptologists used the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) criteria for LGS classification and definition to develop seven questions for the checklist,

Genetic testing among patients evaluated for epilepsy surgery

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Genetic testing performed to identify the underlying etiology of epilepsy has become increasingly common and is now being recommended as part of the presurgical evaluation for epilepsy surgery. This study aimed to characterize the types of genetic tests performed in patients evaluated for epilepsy surgery and assess how genetic ...

Occipital irregular delta activity in focal epilepsy

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Nonspecific occipital irregular delta activity (OID) is a common finding in focal epilepsy (FE). However, the significance of OID and its relationship to the underlying etiology of FE remain largely unstudied. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between OID and the etiology of FE, as well as the relationship between OID ...

Dietary patterns in children with epilepsy: The role of household environment and clinical comorbidities

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To evaluate dietary patterns in children with epilepsy and compare them with age‐ and sex‐matched healthy siblings living in the same household environment. Associations between clinical characteristics and dietary adequacy were also examined.

WONOEP XVII appraisal: The role of the extracellular matrix in epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract The extracellular matrix (ECM) is composed of proteoglycans and glycoproteins that regulate the external environment surrounding neurons, glia, and the vascular system. The ECM is vital for maintaining the structure and function of the brain and also acts as a reservoir for various signaling molecules and neurotransmitters, modulating synaptic

Corticocortical evoked potential amplitude is altered by cortical stimulation in epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Neurostimulation is an established therapy for drug‐resistant epilepsy, but optimizing stimulation parameters remains a major challenge. Corticocortical evoked potential (CCEP) amplitude may serve as an immediate biomarker of neurostimulation effects, enabling rapid parameter optimization.

Low diagnostic yield of presurgical genetic testing in adult patients with epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To determine the diagnostic yield of genetic testing in patients undergoing presurgical evaluation for epilepsy. Methods We conducted a cohort study including 115 adult patients who underwent presurgical evaluation in the Calgary Epilepsy Program between 2019 and 2023 and who had undergone research exome sequencing.
