Management of seizures often involves continuous medication use throughout a patient’s life, including when a patient is pregnant. The physiological changes during pregnancy can lead to altered drug exposure to anti-seizure medications, increasing patient response variability. In addition, subtherapeutic anti-seizure medication concentrations in the mother may increase seizure frequency, raising the risk of miscarriage and preterm labor. On the other hand, drug exposure increases can lead to differences in neurodevelopmental outcomes in the developing fetus. Established pregnancy registries pr

Seizures that occur in close temporal relation to brain lesions and do not recur after resolution of the pathological condition or elimination of the factor that caused it should be considered as acute symptomatic seizures.

The most important causes of acute symptomatic seizures in adults are both diseases that lead to structural brain damage, such as ischemic stroke, cerebral hemorrhage, brain trauma, or encephalitis, and factors

N-Methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors are a subgroup of the glutamate receptor family, whose NR2A subunit was found on neuronal cells (anti-NR2A) in NPSLE patients with different types of epilepsy. The present study was conducted to determine the serum levels of anti-NR2A antibodies in a large group of SLE patients, to investigate the possible correlation between the presence of the NR2A specific antibodies and NPSLE-related seizure diso

Abstract:
Background: Epilepsy is the most common childhood neurological disorder in Nigeria. Treatment of epilepsy is long-term and sometimes lifelong with anti-seizure medications. There are conflicting reports on the effect of anti-seizure medications on serum folate. There is therefore a need to determine the effect of a commonly used anti-seizure medication's on serum folate levels of children. This would provide an evidence-based consideration for folic acid supplementation in children on anti-seizure medication as has been suggested by some studies.

The purpose of the current experiment was to determine the anti-convulsant activity of methanolic extract of Plumbago indica L. In a 50 ml beaker 200 mg of the methanolic extract of Plumbago indica L. was dissolved in water containing the experimental zebrafish. After about 20 minutes the fish was administered with pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) (30 mg in 0.5 ml water) intraperitoneally (i.p) to induce seizure in it. The experimental zebrafish immersed in methanolic extract of Plumbago indica L. and administered with PTZ i.p showed clonic seizure-like activity within a few seconds of administering t

Background: Epileptic seizures affect approximately 10% of the global population and are associated with morbidity, mortality, and economic burden. Despite the availability of antiepileptic drugs, a lot of patients remain resistant to current treatments. Neuroinflammation and oxidative stress are important contributors to seizure pathophysiology. Bavachinin is a flavonoid derived from Psoralea corylifolia, which has been demonstrated to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory characteristics.

Abstract:
Epilepsy is a common and severe neurological disease characterized by spontaneous and recurrent seizures. Although anti-seizure treatments are effective for most patients, approximately 30% remain pharmacoresistant. Moreover, uncontrolled seizures are associated with increased health risks and shortened life expectancy in individuals with refractory epilepsy. Preclinical studies play a crucial role in drug discovery, and the zebrafish (Danio rerio) have been successfully employed for this purpose. In this study, we utilized the zebrafish PTZ-induced seizure model to evaluate the effects of two

Abstract:
Abstract Meningiomas are the most common primary intracranial tumor. They are slow growing and often incidentally found tumors that arise from the arachnoid villi. As they grow, they have a greater likelihood of becoming symptomatic with seizures being one of the most clinically significant symptoms. Seizures are more likely to present as a symptom of larger meningiomas and meningiomas that compress cortical areas particularly those in non-skull base locations. These seizures are often managed medically, utilizing the same anti-seizure medications that are used to treat other causes of epileps

Timely confirmation of autoimmune etiology may lead to improved outcomes by allowing for earlier immunotherapy, which is more effective than anti-seizure medication (ASM). Currently, seizures/epilepsy of autoimmune etiology can be subcategorized as autoimmune associated epilepsy or acute symptomatic seizures in autoimmune encephalitis with varied response to immunotherapy.Design/MethodsThis was a retrospective single center study including patients

The article presents contemporary approaches to solving the problem of discontinuation of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) in patients with epilepsy based on assessing Russian and foreign publications, as well as our clinical experience. A comprehensive analysis of high-priority medical sources on AED discontinuation was carried out, including recommendations proposed by the Italian League Against Epilepsy (2013), practical recommendations for adults and children re

AbstractBackground Pharmacoresistance leads to severe, irreversible disabilities and premature death in ∼30% cases of epilepsy despite adequate and appropriate treatment with available anti-seizure drugs (ASDs) without any underlying cause. In light of the large body of evidence which suggests the anti-seizure action of taurine in experimental animals and its wide safety margins in human, supplementation of this inhibitory amino-sulfonic acid to available ASDs seems promising to treat pharmacoresistant epilepsy.Methods We examined the anti-seizure effect of lamotrigine (15 mg/kg), levetiraceta
