Frontiers in EEG as a tool for the management of pediatric epilepsy: Past, present, and future
Abstract Electroencephalography (EEG) has evolved into an indispensable tool in pediatric epilepsy, fundamentally transforming the diagnosis, classification, and management of this condition. This review chronicles the historical journey of EEG from its groundbreaking inception to its current pivotal role in delineating distinct pediatric epilepsy ...

Abstract Infantile epilepsy spasms syndrome (IESS), formerly known as infantile spasms or West Syndrome, is a severe epilepsy syndrome affecting about 3 in 10,000 newborns in the United States. Characterized by clusters of epileptic spasms, interictal hypsarrhythmia, and developmental delays, IESS has diverse causes, including structural‐metabolic ...

The multiple hit model of infantile and epileptic spasms: The 2025 update
Abstract Objective Infantile and epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) is a developmental and epileptic encephalopathy manifesting with epileptic spasms and poor neurodevelopmental outcomes. There is an urgent need for the development of more effective and tolerated therapies.

Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms
Abstract Approximately half of all cases of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) do not respond to vigabatrin and hormonal therapies. There is no clear consensus as to the second‐line therapy for IESS. Ketogenic diet (KD) has emerged as an effective treatment for certain drug‐resistant epilepsies and in many cases of IESS.

Abstract Objective Lennox–Gastaut syndrome (LGS) is a drug‐resistant developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE). Preclinical drug development for LGS is constrained by a lack of syndrome‐relevant animal models. We aimed to evaluate a Gabrb3+/D120N knock‐in (KI) mouse model of LGS by quantifying atypical absence seizures and epileptic spasms and ...

Abstract Objective Diagnostic and treatment delays in infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) increase the risk of poor neurodevelopmental outcomes. Early clinical recognition of IESS is essential, especially in regions lacking expedited access to electroencephalograms (EEG).

Movement Disorders in Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathies
Abstract Background Monogenic developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEE) frequently feature co‐occurring movement disorders. Gene discovery has expanded epilepsy‐dyskinesia syndromes (EDS) from classic associations such as stereotypies in Rett syndrome to PRRT2‐related infantile seizures with paroxysmal dyskinesia and crouched gait in SCN1A ...

Abstract Background Childhood‐onset hyperkinetic movement disorders occur in a range of genetic conditions. Recently, there has been an increase in recognition of hyperkinetic movement disorders, mainly dystonia, chorea and dyskinesia, with monogenic conditions associated with neurodevelopmental delay (NDD) and also with developmental and epileptic ...

ABSTRACT Objective To identify prenatal predictors of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) in fetuses with one or more cardiac rhabdomyomas (CR), evaluate an integrated multimodal diagnostic workflow using fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and trio whole‐exome sequencing (trio‐WES) and characterize perinatal outcomes.

Germline TP53 Mutations Causing Diamond–Blackfan Anemia: A French Report
ABSTRACT Diamond–Blackfan anemia is a rare congenital erythroblastopenia typically caused by mutations in ribosomal protein genes. Recently, gain‐of‐function mutations in TP53 have been identified as a novel cause of Diamond–Blackfan anemia. We report two French patients who both harbored a heterozygous TP53 deletion (NM_000546.5: c.1077delA; p ...
