Tailoring antiseizure treatment with a wearable device: A proof‐of‐concept study in absence epilepsy
Abstract Objective Typical absence seizures are underreported. We aimed to improve patient care using a wearable electroencephalograph (wEEG) at home and assess a machine learning (ML) pipeline for absence detection. Methods Patients with typical absences used a wEEG device 12–24 h 1 week after antiseizure medication (ASM) adjustments.

Abstract Objective Deep brain stimulation of the centromedian nucleus of the thalamus (CM‐DBS) is an investigational, off‐label treatment for drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) in children. Although emerging evidence supports its safety and efficacy for select indications, the effect of CM‐DBS on quality of life and functional outcomes such as school ...

Frequency‐specific alterations in brain connectivity induced by pulvinar stimulation
Abstract Objective Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is emerging as a promising therapy for patients with drug‐resistant epilepsy, particularly those who are either unsuitable for or unresponsive to resective surgery. The potential benefit of DBS in these patients may stem from its ability to reduce excessive brain functional connectivity (FC).
