Add‐on treatment with vinpocetine reduces seizure frequency and improves comorbidities in patients with loss‐of‐function γ‐aminobutyric acid type A receptor variants

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The semisynthetic compound vinpocetine has gained attention as a potential precision medicine for developmental and epileptic encephalopathies caused by loss‐of‐function (LoF) variants in γ‐aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptor genes. As a positive allosteric modulator of GABAA receptors, case reports suggest that vinpocetine can

High incidence of Y‐chromosome mosaicism in male and female individuals with mild malformation of cortical development with oligodendroglial hyperplasia in epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Mild malformation of cortical development with oligodendroglial hyperplasia in epilepsy (MOGHE) is an underrecognized pediatric cortical lesion associated with somatic X‐linked SLC35A2 variants in approximately 50% of individuals. The genetic etiology in individuals without detectable SLC35A2 mutations remains undefined, which limits

Postoperative reduction of anti‐seizure medication is associated with cognitive improvement in seizure‐free patients after anterior temporal lobectomy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To determine whether postoperative reduction of anti‐seizure medication (ASM) burden is associated with cognitive improvement after anterior temporal lobectomy (ATL) in seizure‐free patients. Methods We retrospectively analyzed data for adult patients with drug‐resistant temporal lobe epilepsy who underwent unilateral ATL between ...

Pathological hippocampal–cortical hypersynchronization disrupts memory in temporal lobe epilepsy: A multimodal intracranial electroencephalographic–functional magnetic resonance imaging study

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Memory impairment is a common comorbidity in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) and is thought to arise from hippocampal dysfunction and disrupted interactions within a distributed memory network involving medial temporal, frontal, and parietal cortical regions.

A cross-cultural comparison between South African and British students on the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scales Third Edition (WAIS-III).

Frontiers in Psychology, 2015
There is debate regarding the appropriate use of Western cognitive measures with individuals from very diverse backgrounds to that of the norm population. Given the dated research in this area and the considerable socio-economic changes that South Africa

Cross‐material memory prediction: Influence of preoperative visual memory on postoperative verbal memory change after left anterior temporal lobe resection in people with epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Left anterior temporal lobe resection (TLR) in people with epilepsy is associated with a high risk of postoperative verbal memory decline. Whereas substantial evidence supports the role of preoperative verbal memory in predicting postoperative verbal memory change, the potential contribution of preoperative visual memory has been ...

Developmental pathways to autism in tuberous sclerosis complex: Evidence from a longitudinal cohort

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract The association between autism spectrum disorder (hereafter referred to as autism) and tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is well established, yet the developmental pathways linking genetic mutation, cortical pathology, and epilepsy with autism remain unclear. The Tuberous Sclerosis 2000 Study recruited children newly diagnosed with TSC (N = 125)
