Compound heterozygous SLC12A5 variants expand the molecular and functional spectrum of KCC2‐developmental and epileptic encephalopathy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Overview of the multimodal experimental approach integrating clinical, genetic, in silico, and in vitro investigations. Clinical: Representative EEG recording setup and ictal traces from affected patients. Genetic: Pedigrees for Families A and B highlighting the inheritance of the four identified SLC12A5 variants (A1, A2, B1, B2).

Gut‐microbiota‐brain Axis and post‐traumatic epilepsy

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract There has been growing evidence that perturbations in gut‐microbiota‐brain axis (GMBA) are involved in mechanisms of chronic sequelae of traumatic brain injury (TBI). This review discusses the connection between GMBA and post‐traumatic epilepsy (PTE), the latter being a common outcome of TBI.

Intestinal microbiome alterations in pediatric epilepsy: Implications for seizures and therapeutic approaches

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract The intestinal microbiome plays a pivotal role in maintaining host health through its involvement in gastrointestinal, immune, and central nervous system (CNS) functions. Recent evidence underscores the bidirectional communication between the microbiota, the gut, and the brain and the impact of this axis on neurological diseases, including ...

Epileptic drop attacks: More than just atonic seizures

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract “Drop attacks” are not officially defined by the International League Against Epilepsy. Seizures are characterized by a sudden loss of control over the trunk and posture, leading to falls and injuries, and resolving within a few seconds. Accurately diagnosing the type of seizure is usually difficult due to limitations in clinical documentation

Local Field Potential‐Based Programming: A Proof‐of‐Concept Pilot Study

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives Programming deep brain stimulation (DBS) is still based on a trial‐and‐error approach, often becoming a time‐consuming process for both treating physicians and patients. Several strategies have been proposed to streamline DBS programming, most of which are preliminary and mainly address Parkinson's disease, a condition readily ...
