Perils and progress in epilepsy surgery utilization: Twenty‐five years later

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract More than 25 years have passed since the first randomized controlled trial (RCT) established that surgery is superior to continued anti‐seizure medication (ASM) for drug‐resistant temporal lobe epilepsy, and nearly as long since a joint practice parameter urged that appropriate surgical candidates be referred to a specialized center for ...

Effects of Noninvasive Cervical Vagal Nerve Stimulation on Cognitive Performance But Not Brain Activation in Healthy Adults

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2020
Abstract Objectives While preliminary evidence suggests that noninvasive vagal nerve stimulation (nVNS) may enhance cognition, to our knowledge, no study has directly assessed the effects of nVNS on brain function and cognitive performance in healthy individuals.

Revisiting the concept that interictal implies asymptomatic: Pulse wave amplitude drops uncover autonomic responses during generalized paroxysmal fast activities

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Interictal electroencephalographic (EEG) activities are generally considered asymptomatic. Pulse wave amplitude drop (PWAD) is a marker of autonomic nervous system (ANS) reactivity linked to cardiovascular risk. Generalized paroxysmal fast activity (GPFA) is a major EEG pattern in different epileptic conditions.

Right vagus nerve stimulation promotes motor cortical plasticity

Scientific Reports
Stimulation of the left cervical vagus nerve (l-VNS) paired with motor training is FDA-approved to improve upper limb function after stroke. However, recent preclinical studies have revealed a striking asymmetry in engagement of the midbrain dopaminergic

The effect of MS McN-A343 injection on VNS-induced HPC field potential and related power-frequency (FFT) histogram.

, 2018
(A) VNS is marked with a horizontal line. The parameters of VNS are marked below this line. Arrows indicate the power-frequency histograms calculated from analog examples of hippocampal field potentials taken pre-injection of McN-A343 (control), 15 and ...

Programming of deep brain stimulation of the centromedian nucleus of the thalamus for drug‐resistant epilepsy: A meta‐analysis and proposed programming framework

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Although the centromedian nucleus of the thalamus (CM) is an increasingly considered deep brain stimulation (DBS) target for drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE), there is significant variability in programming practices, which may contribute to heterogenous outcomes.

The effect of vagus nerve stimulation on heart rate and respiration rate and their impact on seizure susceptibility in anaesthetized rats under pentylenetetrazol

Frontiers in Neuroscience
Despite the proven efficacy of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) in seizure control, its precise mechanism of action remains unclear. VNS is known to impact the cardiorespiratory system.

Vagushermostimulaation (VNS) vaikutus ääneen epilepsiapotilaiden arvioimana [PDF]

, 2023
Vagushermon stimulaatiota (engl, vagus nerve stimulation, VNS) pidetään turvallisena ja tehokkaana hoitomuotona vaikeahoitoiseen epilepsiaan. Tunnetut VNS-hoidon sivuvaikutukset ovat useimmiten lieviä kurkunpään ja nielun alueen vaivoja.

Reasons for not reoperating and outcomes of reoperation after seizure recurrence in pediatric epilepsy surgery: A population‐based study

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy surgery is an established and effective treatment for children with drug‐resistant epilepsy. Although the majority of patients become seizure‐free postoperatively, 20%–40% experience seizure recurrence. Although repeat surgery can achieve seizure freedom in selected cases, the reasons children with seizure recurrence do not ...
