A guide to neuromodulation in drug‐resistant epilepsy

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuromodulation is approved for the treatment of drug‐resistant epilepsy. It has been increasingly utilized over the past two decades with the approval of deep brain stimulation (DBS) and responsive neurostimulation (RNS) in addition to vagus nerve stimulation (VNS)—particularly in patients who are not deemed to be good resective surgical ...

Bilateral ictal eye closure in focal epileptic seizures: SEEG retrospective observational assessment from a tertiary epilepsy center

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Ictal eye closure is commonly associated with functional seizures but may also occur in epileptic seizures. We retrospectively reviewed 113 consecutive stereo‐EEG (SEEG) recordings from adults with drug‐resistant focal epilepsy (2015–2024) to identify prolonged bilateral eye closure during seizures.

Freedon study: Real‐life outcomes of cenobamate in different lines of treatment

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Cenobamate is an antiseizure medication (ASM) with proven effectiveness in individuals with highly refractory epilepsy. This study investigated the effectiveness and tolerability of cenobamate in different treatment lines and a less refractory setting. Methods This was a multicenter, retrospective, observational study.

Fast cycle of vagus nerve stimulation is associated with increased sleep‐related breathing disorder in patients with epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This work was undertaken to study the association between vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) parameters and the apnea–hypopnea index (AHI) measured by polysomnography in patients with drug‐resistant epilepsy. Methods Patients with epilepsy who underwent polysomnography with an active VNS device between 2018 and 2023 were retrospectively ...

Identification of the prostanoid receptor mediating PGE2-induced cough

open access: yes, 2009
Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) may provide a novel therapy for the treatment of inflammatory airway diseases as it has been shown to confer both bronchodilator and anti-inflammatory activity in asthmatic subjects.

Rhythms in longitudinal thalamic recordings are linked to seizure risk

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Seizure unpredictability remains a major clinical challenge for people with epilepsy. Previous works have shown that seizure risk is associated with circadian and multi‐day cycles in both brain and physiological signals. However, it remains unclear whether neural activity from deep brain structures such as the anterior nucleus of the

Human vagus nerve fascicular anatomy and its implications for targeted cardiac stimulation: a microCT segmentation and histological pilot anatomical study

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience
IntroductionThe functional anatomy of autonomic nerve fascicles has remained poorly understood. Building on prior evidence of organotopic organization in the pig cervical vagus nerve, this study examined the thoracic branches of the human vagus nerve ...

Executive dysfunction and employment in epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Executive dysfunction, affective symptoms, and unemployment are prevalent in patients with epilepsy, yet the relation between these variables remains poorly understood. The present study examined: (1) The relationship between epilepsy‐related variables, affective symptoms, and executive functions (EFs); and (2) how these variables ...

Stress-induced vagal activity influences anxiety-relevant prefrontal and amygdala neuronal oscillations in male mice

open access: yesNature Communications
The vagus nerve crucially affects emotions and psychiatric disorders. However, the detailed neurophysiological dynamics of the vagus nerve in response to emotions and its associated pathological changes remain unclear. In this study, we demonstrated that
