Status epilepticus: Updates on mechanisms and treatments
Abstract Status epilepticus (SE) consists of prolonged, self‐sustaining seizures and is a common neurological emergency that causes respiratory compromise and neuronal injury. Without prompt treatment, the seizures can become resistant to benzodiazepines, leading to the progressive evolution of established, refractory, and super‐refractory SE.

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 Variants in KCNQ2 encoding the voltage‐gated potassium channel KV7.2 are associated with developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE) of varying severity. This study examined the relationship of KCNQ2 variant dysfunction with the neurodevelopmental phenotype of individuals with KCNQ2‐DEE. Methods A parent‐reported survey gathered
