Graph theoretical measures of fast ripple networks improve the accuracy of post-operative seizure outcome prediction

Shennan A. Weiss et al.

Summary: Fast ripples (FR) are a biomarker of epileptogenic brain. The FR resection ratio (RR) did not correlate with seizure-outcome, but the FR rate-distance radius resected difference and the FR MI mean characteristic path length RR did correlate with seizure-outcome. The diagnostic accuracy of the resection of FR events for predicting seizure freedom can be improved by using graph theoretical measures of FR networks.

Mapping Lesion-Related Epilepsy to a Human Brain Network

Frederic L. W. V. J. Schaper et al.

Summary: Lesions associated with epilepsy were found to be located in various regions of the brain, but these lesion locations were part of a specific brain network connected to the basal ganglia and cerebellum. This finding can help identify patients at risk of epilepsy after a brain lesion and guide brain stimulation therapies.

Responsive neurostimulation of the thalamus improves seizure control in idiopathic generalised epilepsy: initial case series

Nathaniel D. Sisterson et al.

Summary: This study reported outcomes of four patients with pharmacoresistant epilepsy undergoing thalamic-responsive neurostimulation treatment, showing a significant reduction in seizure frequency, duration and severity, as well as improvements in quality of life. The results remained durable through at least 2 years of therapy.

Towards network-guided neuromodulation for epilepsy

Rory J. Piper et al.

Summary: Epilepsy is a disorder of brain networks, and researchers are identifying critical nodes within these networks to target therapies for seizures. Intracranial neuromodulation has proven effective in reducing seizures in both adults and children, and the convergence of these fields is driving a new era of network-guided neuromodulation for epilepsy. This review summarizes the current literature on network mechanisms underlying neurostimulation for epilepsy, focusing on key propagation points in the epileptogenic network. The authors discuss current clinical targets, such as the thalamic nuclei, as well as emerging targets like the pulvinar of the thalamus and the cerebellum. They also report on findings from various modalities of investigation, including EEG and MRI, that reveal the structural and functional networks associated with these propagation points. The authors emphasize the importance of using network analyses to determine patient eligibility for neurostimulation and delivering personalized stimulation based on individual epileptogenic networks.

Graph theoretical measures of fast ripples support the epileptic network hypothesis

Shennan A. Weiss et al.

Summary: The epileptic network hypothesis and epileptogenic zone hypothesis were tested by comparing high-frequency oscillation rates and networks in surgical responders and non-responders. The study found that in non-responders, the epileptogenic zone partially encompassed the seizure onset zone, and fast ripples had a lower spectral content in the seizure onset zone. In contrast, in responders, fast ripples exhibited a higher spectral content in the seizure onset zone. Additionally, the construction of two different networks of fast ripples accurately distinguished surgical responders and non-responders.

Connectome biomarkers of drug-resistant epilepsy

Sara Lariviere et al.

Summary: Drug-resistant epilepsy significantly impacts patient health and cognition. While brain surgery is effective for many patients, increasing evidence suggests that DRE patients may also have widespread network disruptions leading to cognitive impairment and prognosis issues. Advanced neuroimaging techniques offer new insights into these network biomarkers, but further clinical studies are needed to translate these findings into actionable decisions for patient management.

Incidence and Prevalence of Drug-Resistant Epilepsy A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Bushra Sultana et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the incidence and prevalence of drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) and found variations between populations. Multiple potential predictors and correlates of DRE were identified, providing important information for planning epilepsy services, including epilepsy surgery, for individuals with disabling seizures and DRE.

Case Report: Responsive Neurostimulation of the Centromedian Thalamic Nucleus for the Detection and Treatment of Seizures in Pediatric Primary Generalized Epilepsy

William P. Welch et al.

Summary: This study presents a 16-year-old male patient with drug-resistant primary generalized epilepsy and absence seizures, who achieved a 75% reduction in seizure frequency following bilateral responsive neurostimulation of the centromedian nuclei. The results demonstrate that CM RNS can detect and effectively treat seizures related to primary generalized epilepsy in the CM nucleus.

Variation in pediatric stereoelectroencephalography practice among pediatric neurosurgeons in the United States: survey results

Benjamin C. Kennedy et al.

Summary: SEEG has been widely adopted by pediatric epilepsy surgeons in the United States, with higher case volume associated with placing more electrodes and operating on younger patients. Despite clustering around a norm for most parameters, substantial variations were found among different pediatric epilepsy programs, highlighting differences in implementation and philosophy.
