Faster Seizure Medicine Reduction May Shorten Hospital Stays
This study looked at how quickly antiseizure medicines were reduced during hospital stays in an epilepsy monitoring unit (EMU), where video-EEG is used to record seizures for diagnosis and treatment planning.

Cenobamate May Help Children With Hard-To-Treat Epilepsy
This study looked at cenobamate used as an add-on seizure medicine in children, teens, and young adults with drug-resistant epilepsy.

Long White Matter Pathways Help Brain Signals Travel Fast
Researchers studied how brain activity spreads from one brain region to another, and whether similar patterns apply to both epilepsy-related activity and physiological spontaneous activity.

Brain Stimulation May Help Reduce Hard-To-Control Seizures
This paper was a systematic review of studies on two neuromodulation treatments for drug-resistant epilepsy: transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and vagus nerve stimulation (VNS).

Rare Seizure Pattern Often Linked To Chromosome Changes
This paper was a systematic review, which means the researchers searched published medical reports rather than enrolling new patients.
