Occult Autoimmune Background for Epilepsy —The Preliminary Study on Antibodies Against Neuronal Surface Antigens
The objective of the study was to determine the incidence of antibodies against neuronal surface antigens (NSA-ab) in patients with different types of epilepsy, in comparison with the subjects diagnosed with immune-mediated disorders.Methods: Forty patients with drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) of unknown origin, 16 with post-stroke epilepsy, and 23 with systemic autoimmune disorders (SAD) with CNS involvement were included. NSA-ab were sought in serum using indirect immunofluorescence method. Relationships were analyzed between presence of NSA-ab and clinical presentation.Results: NSA-ab was detected in the sera from five pa...

Pharmacotherapy for SARS-CoV-2 and Seizures for drug repurposing presumed on Mechanistic Targets
CONCLUSION: These findings would hopefully provide the basis for initiating further studies on the pathogenesis and drug targeting strategies for this emerging infection accompanied with seizures or in people with epilepsy.PMID:34645381 | DOI:10.2174/1874467214666211013122528

Emerging role of the ketogenic dietary therapies beyond epilepsy in child neurology
Dipti Kapoor, Divyani Garg, Suvasini SharmaAnnals of Indian Academy of Neurology 2021 24(4):470-480
Ketogenic dietary therapies (KDTs) have been in use for refractory paediatric epilepsy for a century now. Over time, KDTs themselves have undergone various modifications to improve tolerability and clinical feasibility, including the Modified Atkins diet (MAD), medium chain triglyceride (MCT) diet and the low glycaemic index treatment (LGIT). Animal and observational studies indicate numerous benefits of KDTs in paediatric neurological conditions apart from their evident benefits in childhood intractable epilepsy, including...

Low Diastolic Blood Pressure Predicts Good Clinical Outcome in Patients With Cerebral Venous Thrombosis
Conclusion: SBP > 129.5 mmHg and DBP > 77.5 mmHg suggested the presence of IH in CVT patients. DBP > 79.5 mmHg predicted a poor clinical outcome.

Predicting the risk of stroke in patients with late-onset epilepsy: A machine learning approach
CONCLUSION: The stroke risk in patients with epilepsy was relatively high and could be predicted based on comorbidities such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, heart failure, and alcohol dependence. Knowing and addressing these factors may help reduce the risk of stroke in patients with epilepsy.PMID:34325155 | DOI:10.1016/j.yebeh.2021.108211
