Screening Routine Clinical Notes for Epilepsy Surgery Candidates Using Large Language Models - OBJECTIVE: Epilepsy surgery is severely underutilized despite proven efficacy, with substantial under-referral of eligible patients in routine clinical practice. This study evaluated the potential role of large language models (LLMs) as decision-support tools for screening unstructured clinical notes to identify epilepsy surgery candidates and stratify them according to prognostic indicators.

Spatial and Volumetric Characteristics of Glioblastoma: Associations With Clinical Presentation and Survival - OBJECTIVE: We aim to comprehensively analyze how regional tumor and edema characteristics are associated with clinical presentations and survival outcomes in a large cohort of glioblastoma patients.

Response-Able Care and Undone Care Spaces: The Role of Digital Technologies in Danish Epilepsy Care - In this article, we explore how people with epilepsy and their caregivers handle everyday life with epilepsy and the constant fear of an unexpected seizure through digital care technologies. These technologies are often used outside clinical settings and without clinicians' involvement or awareness. Their use is dependent on response-able care relations. We explore the precarities that arise wh...

Measuring transition success from paediatric to adult epilepsy services and its association with seizure outcomes: a UK retrospective cohort study - CONCLUSIONS: A novel transition success tool was developed. Larger, multicentre studies are needed to validate this tool and confirm associations with long-term outcomes.

A retrospective analysis of perinatal stroke: hemostasis abnormalities, neonatal seizures, epilepsy recurrence, and two-year neurological outcome - BACKGROUND: Neonatal stroke is a rare but potentially severe condition that may lead to long-term neurological impairment. Several factors may influence both its occurrence and outcomes.

Feline Hippocampal Necrosis and Temporal Lobe Epilepsy: A review of current literature and definitions - Feline Hippocampal Necrosis (FHN) is a histopathological diagnosis first identified 25 years ago in domestic cats, and characterised by marked neuronal necrosis largely restricted to the hippocampus. FHN is often conflated with an overlapping condition, Hippocampal Sclerosis (HS). FHN does not represent a singular neurological condition, but rather a common endpoint of several disease entities ...

Brain signal irregularity may provide clues to understanding epileptic process - Researchers propose a new method to differentiate signals from the epileptic focus from those recorded in other parts of the brain without the presence of an epileptic seizure. This technique may help detect epilepsy-induced features from these signals much quicker than conventional analysis techniques.

Breakthrough tech enables seizure localization in minutes - New research introduces a novel network analysis technology that uses minimally invasive resting state electrophysiological recordings to localize seizure onset brain regions and predict seizure outcomes in just 10 minutes.

Antidepressant use during pregnancy not linked to epilepsy in children - A new study suggests that antidepressant use by mothers during the first trimester of pregnancy does not increase the chances of epilepsy and seizures in babies.
