The minimally invasive grid approach for seizure localization: patient series -
BACKGROUND: Epilepsy surgery continues to advance new minimally invasive techniques for both seizure localization and treatment. Stereo-electroencephalography (sEEG) is increasingly being used; however, some patients continue to require subdural electrodes for neocortical mapping. Traditional subdural grid electrodes involve medium to large craniotomies, relatively large incisions, and can be a...
Typical and Atypical Frequency-Based Subtypes of EEG Reactivity in Hospitalized Patients and Association With Comorbidities and Outcomes -
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: EEG reactivity (EEG-R) is currently classified as present, absent, or stimulus-induced rhythmic, periodic, or ictal discharges, per the American Clinical Neurophysiology Society's 2021 Critical Care EEG Terminology. However, our previous study suggested that there may be other forms of EEG-R that warrant distinction, potentially associated with different comorbidities...
KCNQ2 neonatal epilepsy: Impact of prompt diagnosis and treatment, and early predictors of outcome severity -
OBJECTIVE: To determine whether prompt genetic diagnosis in children with KCNQ2 neonatal epilepsy enabling targeted therapy is associated with improved outcomes, and identify early predictors of developmental outcomes.

Burden of Sleep Disturbances and Sleep Apnea Risk Among Children with Epilepsy: A Case-Control Study -
CONCLUSIONS: Sleep disturbances among Saudi children with seizures are significantly more prevalent than in healthy peers. Integration of standardized screening tools into routine pediatric neurology practice is warranted for the timely identification and management of these comorbidities.
Current management of low-grade, epilepsy-associated brain tumors in Europe -
Low-grade epilepsy-associated brain tumors (LEATs) are a frequent cause of drug-resistant focal epilepsy in both children and adults. Epilepsy surgery is a well-recognized treatment option, with almost 80% of patients being seizure-free at 1 year, and 50% of children being seizure- and drug-free at 5 years. Despite these outcomes, standardized management guidelines remain lacking. The present s...
