Stability of the Epileptogenic Index across seizures and the effects of sleep and withdrawal of anti‐seizure medications

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epileptogenic Index (EI) is a promising index to evaluate the epileptogenicity of the brain tissue and is useful in planning epilepsy surgery. We aimed to evaluate whether EI maps are consistent across seizures within patients and whether EI‐derived measures are affected by the vigilance state and anti‐seizure medication (ASM) dose ...

Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation in drug‐resistant epilepsy: A randomized, sham‐controlled crossover trial with exploratory EEG and MRI response phenotyping

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) is a noninvasive neuromodulation strategy for drug‐resistant epilepsy, but clinical response is heterogeneous. We examined whether electroencephalographic (EEG) and structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) phenotypes were associated with active‐specific clinical benefit from

Vagus nerve stimulation for seizure control: Local experience

, 1998
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is a relatively new therapeutic approach for intractable epilepsy. Its safety and efficacy have already been documented by randomized clinical studies conducted in Europe and North America. To date, more than 800 vagus nerve

Clinical efficacy and cost‐effectiveness of epilepsy surgery in low‐ and middle‐income countries: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To synthesize evidence on clinical outcomes, direct surgical costs, and cost‐effectiveness of resective epilepsy surgery for drug‐resistant epilepsy in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs). Methods MEDLINE, PubMed, Scopus, and the Cochrane Library were searched through May 17, 2026.

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

Frontiers 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 ...

Prescriptions for seizure cluster rescue therapy are not associated with decreased pediatric ED utilization

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Seizure clusters, or acute repetitive seizures, are a phenomenon often experienced by patients with epilepsy and pose a significant treatment challenge for clinicians. Several rescue medications have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of seizure clusters – including diazepam rectal gel, intranasal ...

Cold Exposure to the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve: A Porcine Continuous Intraoperative Neuromonitoring Model Study

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Tissue exposure to cold temperatures is common in clinical practice, yet the safety of exposing the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) to cold remains unclear. This study evaluated temperature‐dependent effects of cold exposure on RLN function.

Research progress on the role of inflammatory mediators in the pathogenesis of epilepsy

Ibrain, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 44-58, Spring 2025.
In the central nervous system, activated immune cells lead to the overproduction of inflammatory mediators through the corresponding signal pathway. Under the stimulation of inflammatory factors, neuroinflammation ultimately occurs. Overexpression of inflammatory mediators and activated immunocytes plays an important role in the emergence and ...
