Automatic seizure detection using machine learning from multimodal wearable sensor data is feasible across a broad spectrum of epileptic seizures.
Pediatric Epilepsy
Our study points out that children and adolescents with temporal lobe epilepsy who achieved freedom from seizure after epilepsy surgery are the leading candidates for achieving postoperative intellectual improvement.

A period of freedom from seizure on therapy of less than 2 years was the main predictor of seizure recurrence.
This study was intended to explore the relationship between eligible patients not proceeding with resective epilepsy surgery and various demographic, disease-specific, and epilepsy-evaluation variables.
We propose through both entrainment and 1/f resonance mechanisms that listening to musical pieces containing the least predictable rhythmic structure, might reduce the self similarity of brain activity which in turn modulates low frequency power, situating the brain in a more "noise like" state and away from brain dynamics that can lead to seizures.
People with pharmacoresistant epilepsy and undergoing ketogenic diet therapy, as well as their caregivers, faced additional challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic, not only difficulties in accessing healthcare and ketogenic diet therapy maintenance but also on seizure control and mental health.
