Data later will be used by Encoded in its development of EXT101, its investigational gene therapy for Dravet.
SUDEP
The study identified a sequence of events that takes place during a seizure which can progress and lead to death, and that intervention during a seizure can rescue death in mice with epilepsy.
Pharmacist-led education and counselling interventions may significantly improve the quality of life of patients with epilepsy.
Dynamic PET, as an addition to the noninvasive toolkit, can expand the number of epilepsy surgery candidates.
The extensive functional and neuropathological characterization of this TBI model, provides a tool to identify sensitive measures of epilepsy development and severity clinically useful for increasing PTE prediction in high-risk TBI patients.
Pediatric Epilepsy
Caregivers using e-diaries for epileptic spasms may miss individual spams, be more likely to report long clusters, round counts to the nearest five, and underreport nighttime spasms.
The present in vitro findings further support careful adjustment of maternal antiseizure medication doses during pregnancy.
Although pathophysiology is not well-understood, the cerebellum likely plays an inherent role in inhibiting aberrant cortical epileptogenesis.
Increasing the dose of statin treatment during the acute phase of ischemic stroke reduces the incidence of post-stroke epilepsy.
