Blocking MiR-30a-5p May Help Slow Epilepsy Progression
This study looked at how a small genetic regulator called miR-30a-5p may be involved in epilepsy.
-
Blood Marker May Help Spot Depression In Epilepsy
This study looked at whether a blood marker called neurofilament light chain, or NfL, was linked to depressive symptoms in adults with epilepsy.
-
Epilepsy Linked To Higher Tau And Faster Aging
This study looked at whether people with epilepsy have higher levels of tau, a protein linked to brain disease, even when they do not have dementia.
-
Earlier Epilepsy Surgery May Improve Seizure Control In Children
This study looked at children with epilepsy who had brain surgery to try to stop their seizures.

Brain-Responsive Device Cuts Seizures Over Three Years
This study looked at a brain device called the RNS System in adults with drug-resistant focal epilepsy, meaning seizures kept happening despite medicine.

Dual Brain Stimulation Helped Child With Dystonia And Seizures
This report describes one 8-year-old boy with brain injury from hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) who had both dystonia, which causes abnormal muscle tightness and movements, and epilepsy that did not respond to medicine.

Keto Diet Helped Some Babies With Spasms
This study looked at the ketogenic diet, a high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet, in 74 children with infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS).
