Did the French pregnancy pictogram change antiseizure medication use during pregnancy?

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The aim of this study was to assess the impact of introducing a pregnancy pictogram on medication packaging on the prescription and dispensation of antiseizure medications and on the maternal and neonatal outcomes for women exposed to these medications.

Ranking of antiseizure medications in a panel of focal seizure models predicts their comparative efficacy in clinical add‐on trials in drug‐resistant focal epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Most antiseizure medications (ASMs) have been discovered by testing in animal models, which are generally thought to predict antiseizure activity in patients. However, it is not known whether any of these models (or a combination of models) can predict whether a novel ASM exhibits higher clinical efficacy in focal drug‐resistant ...

Sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors and the risk of late onset epilepsy: A real‐world cohort study

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Late onset epilepsy (LOE) is associated with substantial morbidity. Sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) may exert neuroprotective effects. This study evaluated the association between SGLT2i and risk of LOE among older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Mental health of children with epilepsy in Ukraine during the war

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The ongoing conflict in Ukraine has created a severe humanitarian crisis, disproportionately affecting vulnerable populations such as children with chronic conditions. We set out to determine information about mental health in children with epilepsy in Ukraine affected by the conflict.

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.

Clinical validation of a patient‐friendly saliva microsampling approach to monitor perampanel levels in people with epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Perampanel (PER) is a third‐generation antiseizure medication (ASM) with a well‐established concentration–effect relationship. Saliva represents a non‐invasive alternative to plasma for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of PER, as it reflects the free plasma fraction.

Diagnosis and management guidelines for infantile epileptic spasms syndrome around the world: A scoping review and comparative study of international approaches

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) is an epileptic encephalopathy requiring rapid diagnosis and treatment to optimize neurodevelopmental outcomes. Although multiple national and regional guidelines exist, recommendations vary.

Epilepsy syndromes classification

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy syndromes are distinct electroclinical entities which have been recently defined by the International League Against Epilepsy Nosology and Definitions Task Force. Each syndrome is associated with “a characteristic cluster of clinical and EEG features, often supported by specific etiologic findings”.

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

open access: yesEpilepsia 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 ...

New insights into epileptic spasm generation and treatment from the TTX animal model

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Currently, we have an incomplete understanding of the mechanisms underlying infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS). However, over the past decade, significant efforts have been made to develop IESS animal models to provide much‐needed mechanistic information for therapy development.
