251. Temporal changes in the incidence of epilepsy in Finland: Nationwide study

Author: Sillanpää, Matti, Kälviäinen, Reetta, Klaukka, Timo, Helenius, Hans, and Shinnar, Shlomo
Subjects: *DEVELOPMENTAL disabilities, *SEIZURES (Medicine), *EPILEPSY, *SPASMS
Abstract: Abstract: Purpose: To examine possible changes over time in the incidence of epilepsy in different age groups. Methods: Based on the nationwide full-refundable antiepileptic drug register and population register, incidence of newly diagnosed epilepsy was measured by granted full-refundable antiepileptic drugs for epilepsy. Results: The incidence was throughout all age groups higher in men than in women. The incidence in the total population had significantly declined in 1986–2002, from 71.6/100,000 to 52.9/100,000. The incidence significantly decreased in children (0.77; 0.71–0.84, p <0.0001) and adults (0.83; 0.77–0.89, p <0.0001) but increased in the elderly (1.18; 1.10–1.26, p <0.0001). The increased incidence in the elderly over the time period was primarily seen in women. Conclusion: The incidence of epilepsy has significantly declined in both children and adults with a concurrent increase in the incidence among the elderly. Further studies are needed to elucidate the precise cause of these temporal changes. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

252. Carotid stenosis degree in CT angiography: assessment based on luminal area versus luminal diameter measurements.

Author: Zishu Zhang, Berg, Marja, Ikonen, Aki, Könönen, Mervi, Kälviäinen, Reetta, Manninen, Hannu, and Vanninen, Ritva
Subjects: ANGIOGRAPHY, RADIOSCOPIC diagnosis, MEDICAL radiography, CAROTID artery, CAROTID sinus, BLOOD vessels, DIAGNOSTIC imaging, MEDICAL radiology
Abstract: The aim of this study was to investigate CT angiography (CTA) luminal area measurements in the assessment of carotid artery stenosis compared with the current clinically used criteria based on lumen diameter measurements. Seventy-two vessels in 36 patients were evaluated by CTA and digital subtraction angiography (DSA). Two observers measured area and diameter stenosis degrees using automated 3D CTA analysis software. The ratio of the largest/smallest luminal diameter at the level of maximal stenosis (L/S ratio) was used to describe lumen morphology. Diagnostic agreement between CTA and DSA was calculated. For the assessment of area stenosis, interobserver and intraobserver correlation coefficients were 0.898 and 0.906 ( p<0.001). The correlation coefficient between the diameter stenosis and area stenosis was lower in stenoses with extremely noncircular lumen (L/S ratio ≥1.5) ( r=0.797, p<0.001) compared with stenoses with circular lumen (LS ratio <1.2) ( r=0.978, p<0.001). Only satisfactory agreement (κ 0.54-0.77, p<0.001) was obtained between area stenosis on CTA and diameter stenosis on DSA. Assessment of stenosis degree with area measurements on 3D CTA proved to be reproducible. Area stenosis provides a less-severe estimate of the degree of carotid stenosis but might theoretically express the real hemodynamic significance of the lesion better than diameter stenosis, especially in stenoses with noncircular lumen.

254. [sup 18]F]FDG-PET Reveals Temporal Hypometabolism in Patients With Temporal Lobe Epilepsy Even When Quantitative MRI and Histopathological Analysis Show Only Mild Hippocampal Damage.

Author: Lamusuo, Salla, Jutila, Leena, Ylinen, Aarne, Kälviäinen, Reetta, Mervaala, Esa, Haaparanta, Merja, Jääskeläinen, Satu, Partanen, Kaarina, Vapalahti, Matti, and Rinne, Juha
Subjects: GLUCOSE, TEMPORAL lobe epilepsy, HIPPOCAMPUS diseases, METABOLISM, PATIENTS
Abstract: Background: The relationship between reduced glucose metabolism in positron emission tomography with fludeoxyglucose F 18 ([[sup 18]F]FDG-PET) and hippocampal damage (HD) in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy is still unclear. Objective: To determine whether the presence and severity of HD verified by quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (QMRI) and histopathological analysis affect the degree of hypometabolism. Patients and Methods: Sixteen patients with drug-resistant temporal lobe epilepsy underwent [[sup 18]F]FDG-PET and QMRI (hippocampal volumetry and T2 relaxometry) before surgery. Histopathological analysis of the hippocampus included measurements of neuronal loss, proliferation of glial cells, and mossy fiber sprouting. The asymmetry in glucose metabolism described the degree of hypometabolism. Results: Temporal hypometabolism was not related to severity of HD as measured by QMRI or histopathological analysis. The degree of hypometabolism did not differ in patients with mild, moderate, or severe HD. In addition, [[sup 18]F]FDG-PET revealed significant temporal hypometabolism even though hippocampal QMRI findings were normal or showed only mild HD. Thus, glucose consumption was reduced over and above the histopathological changes. Conclusions: [[sup 18]F]FDG-PET is sensitive for localizing the epileptogenic region in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy. However, it is insensitive to reflect the severity of HD.

Author: Leonardi, Matilde, Colonna, Isabella, Garcia‐Azorin, David, Bereczki, Daniel, Bodini, Benedetta, Bregman, Noa, Kälviäinen, Reetta K., Kondybayeva, Aida, Papp, Viktoria, Vodušek, David B., von Oertzen, Tim, Danova, Robertina, Crean, Michael, Wurm, Raphael, Bassetti, Claudio, Berger, Thomas, Boon, Paul, Kallweit, Ulf, Marson, Anthony, and Moro, Elena
Subjects: *HEALTH policy, *WORLD health, *NEUROLOGICAL disorders, *MEDICAL care, *PUBLIC health
Abstract: Background and purpose: The European Academy of Neurology (EAN) has adhered to the global plan for reducing the burden of neurological disorders and promoting brain health launched by the World Health Organisation (WHO), the WHO Intersectoral Global Action Plan on Epilepsy and Other Neurological Disorders. This study reports the results of an EAN survey among national neurological societies (NNSs) on their awareness of brain health policies. Methods: The EAN survey on the current state of national brain health policies was conducted among the 47 presidents of the NNSs affiliated with the EAN, with the aim of developing the best strategy for close collaboration among stakeholders. Results: From June 2023 to February 2024, 36/47 responses (77%) were collected. Among respondents, 67% were in contact with their Ministry of Health and 78% were aware of and in contact with one or more national neurological patient organisation, while 17% had no contacts with any association. Ninety‐two percent declared a high to medium degree of awareness of the need to support brain health and of brain health plans and strategies in their country. Conclusions: Our findings suggest good awareness of the importance of brain health and of the strategies implemented at the national level among the EAN‐affiliated NNSs and representatives. Efforts towards improvement may be directed towards cooperation between NNSs and political institutions, as well as patient organisations, to optimise brain and global public health and neurological care in each country.

257. Cognitive functioning in new-onset juvenile myoclonic epilepsy.

Author: Raatikainen, Maria, Kälviäinen, Reetta, Jutila, Leena, and Äikiä, Marja
Abstract: Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) is a common genetic generalized epilepsy syndrome. Adult patients with JME have shown a neuropsychological profile suggestive of subtle frontal dysfunction, but studies of cognitive functioning in the early phases of JME are rare. We analyzed the cognitive performance data of 18 patients who had undergone a neuropsychological assessment either at the time of JME diagnosis and before the initiation of an antiepileptic drug (AED) treatment (11 patients) or during the first 6 years after JME diagnosis (seven patients). The cognitive performance of the18 patients with JME (mean age: 18.1, range: 15–33 years) and 18 healthy controls (mean age: 18.7, range: 15–25 years) was compared in a retrospective study. The assessed cognitive domains were visuomotor speed, attention, executive function, and verbal memory. The patients with JME and the healthy controls did not differ in any of the assessed cognitive domains. The clinical variables did not correlate to cognitive performance. Furthermore, cognitive performance did not differ between the patients evaluated at the time of diagnosis and before the initiation of AEDs and the patients evaluated during the first 6 years after diagnosis and with an AED treatment. The cognitive performance of patients with new-onset JME was similar to healthy controls. We could not detect the frontal dysfunction that has been suggested to be associated with JME. Patients were in adolescence or early adulthood with a short duration of epilepsy, which may have contributed to the discovery of no cognitive impairments. • Patients with juvenile myoclonus epilepsy (JME) have shown frontal dysfunction in previous studies. • In this retrospective study the patients with new-onset JME had a comparable cognitive performance to healthy controls. • Age, years of education, age at disease onset, disease duration or use of AEDs did not correlate to cognitive performance [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

258. Management of prolonged epileptic seizures and status epilepticus in palliative care patients.

Author: Kälviäinen, Reetta and Reinikainen, Matti
Subjects: *EPILEPSY, *STATUS epilepticus, *PALLIATIVE treatment, *INTENSIVE care units, *CRITICAL care medicine
Abstract: Prolonged seizures and status epilepticus (SE) are relevant problems in palliative care. Timely recognition and effective early treatment with first- and second-line antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) may prevent unnecessary hospitalizations. Seizures should be recognized and addressed like any other symptom that causes discomfort or reduces quality of life. Use of alternative AED administration routes (buccal, intranasal, or subcutaneous) may offer possibilities for effective and individualized AED therapy, even during the last days of life. In hospice or home care, however, also intravenous treatment is possible via vascular access devices for long-term use. Aggressive unlimited intensive care unit (ICU) treatment of refractory SE in palliative patients is mostly not indicated. At worst, intensive care can be futile and possibly harmful: death in the ICU is often preceded by long and aggressive treatments. Metastatic cancer, old age, high severity of acute illness, overall frailty, poor functional status before hospital admission, and the presence of severe comorbidities all increase the probability of poor outcome of intensive care. When several of these factors are present, consideration of withholding intensive care may be in the patient's best interests. Anticipated outcomes influence patients' preferences. A majority of patients with a limited life expectancy because of an incurable disease would not want aggressive treatment, if the anticipated outcome was survival but with severe functional impairment. Doctors' perceptions about their patients' wishes are often incorrect, and therefore, advance care planning including seizure management should be done early in the course of the disease. This article is part of the Special Issue "Proceedings of the 7th London-Innsbruck Colloquium on Status Epilepticus and Acute Seizures". • Prolonged seizures and status epilepticus (SE) warrant effective first- and second-line treatment also in palliative care. • Treatment can be offered via buccal, intranasal or subcutaneous routes or via vascular access devices. • Unlimited intensive care of refractory SE is not indicated, at worst, it can be not only futile, but possibly even harmful. • Severe acute illness and co-morbidities, overall frailty and poor functional status increase the risk of adverse outcome. • A majority of patients would not want aggressive treatment, if the anticipated outcome was severe functional impairment.

259. Long-term Study With Gabapentin in Patients With Drug-Resistant Epileptic Seizures

Author: Sivenius, Juhani, Ylinen, Aarne, Kälviäinen, Reetta, and Riekkinen, Paavo J.
Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To study the efficacy and safety of gabapentin in long-term treatment. DESIGN: A 4-year follow-up study of 25 patients with visits at 3-month intervals. SETTING: The patients were followed up in the outpatient unit of the University Hospital of Kuopio (Finland). PATIENTS: We treated 25 patients with drug-resistant complex partial seizures and secondarily generalized seizures in an open-label long-term study, using gabapentin as an additional means of therapy after a 3-month double-blind, placebo-controlled phase. Thirteen patients showed no benefit from gabapentin; the study medication was discontinued after 4 to 6 months of treatment. Of the 12 patients who responded enough to continue treatment, five were withdrawn due to different reasons, one because of loss of response. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The number of patients receiving the study drug in the follow-up and reduction of seizure frequency from baseline level as analyzed by the Wilcoxon test. RESULTS: Seven patients received gabapentin therapy for more than 4 years. The median follow-up time was 54 months. There was a significant reduction in seizure frequency throughout the follow-up period. Five of seven patients had a greater than 50% seizure frequency reduction at 4 years, representing 20% of the 25 patients who entered the study. CONCLUSIONS: Gabapentin possesses good efficacy in long-term treatment of patients with partial and secondarily generalized epileptic seizures. It is safe to use, and it is fairly well tolerated even in long-term treatment.

260. Treatment delay in status epilepticus – more effective prehospital symptom recognition warranted.

Author: Sairanen, Joni J., Kantanen, Anne-Mari, Hyppölä, Harri T., and Kälviäinen, Reetta K.
Abstract: Background: The outcome of status epilepticus (SE) can be improved by facilitating early recognition and treatment with antiepileptic drugs. The purpose of this study was to analyze the treatment delay of SE in a prospectively recruited patient cohort. Improvements to the treatment process are suggested. Methods: Consecutive adult patients with SE were recruited in the emergency department of Kuopio University Hospital (KUH) between March 23 and December 31, 2015. SE was defined as a prolonged (> 5 min) epileptic seizure or recurrent tonic-clonic seizures (≥ 3 seizures within any 24 h). Diagnostic and treatment delays and the features of SE were subject to statistical analysis. Results: We recorded 151 cases of SE during the study period. First-line treatment was initiated outside of hospital in 79 cases (52.3%), with a significantly shorter median delay compared to intrahospital initiation (28 min vs. 2 h 5 min, p < 0.001). Forty-six episodes of SE (30.5%) were not recognized during the prehospital phase. The median delay in recognition of tonic-clonic SE (23 min) was significantly shorter than in focal aware (2 h 0 min, p = 0.045) or focal impaired awareness SE (2 h 25 min, p < 0.001). Second-line treatment was used in 91 cases (60.3%), with a median delay of 2 h 42 min. Anesthesia was used in seven cases (4.6%) with refractory SE, with a median delay of 6 h 40 min. Conclusions: SE is often not recognized during the prehospital phase of treatment, which delays the initiation of first-line treatment. Intrahospital delay could be reduced by streamlining patient transition between the three lines of treatment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Subjects: Brain
Abstract: BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The assessment of patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) traditionally focuses on the hippocampal formation. These patients, however, may present structural abnormalities in other brain areas. Our purpose was to develop a method to measure the combined volume of the human piriform cortex and cortical amygdala (PCA) by using MR imaging and to investigate PCA atrophy. METHODS: The definition of anatomic landmarks on MR images was based on histologic analysis of 23 autopsy control subjects. Thirty-nine adults with chronic TLE and 23 age-matched control subjects were studied. All underwent high-spatial-resolution MR imaging at 1.5T, including a tilted T1-weighted 3D dataset. The PCA volumes were compared with the control values and further correlated with hippocampal, amygdale, and entorhinal cortex volumes. RESULTS: The normal volume was 530 ± 59 mm(3) (422–644) [mean ± 1 SD (range)] on the right and 512 ± 60 mm(3) (406–610) on the left PCA (no asymmetry, and no age or sex effect). The intraobserver and interobserver variability were 6% and 8%, respectively. In right TLE patients, the mean right PCA volume was 18% smaller than in control subjects (P < .001) and 15% smaller than in left TLE (P < .001). In left TLE, the mean left PCA volume was 16% smaller than in control subjects (P < .001) and 19% smaller than in right TLE (P < .001). Overall, 46% (18/39) of the patients had a greater than 20% volume reduction in the ipsilateral PCA. There was bilateral atrophy in 18% (7/39). Patients with hippocampal volumes of at least 2 SDs below the control mean had an 18% reduction in the mean PCA volume compared with patients without hippocampal atrophy (P < .001). Ipsilaterally, hippocampal (r = 0.756, P < .01), amygdaloid (r = 0.548, P < .01), and entorhinal (r = 0.500, P < .01) volumes correlated with the PCA volumes. CONCLUSION: The quantification of PCA volume with MR imaging showed that the PCA is extensively damaged in chronic TLE patients, particularly in those with hippocampal atrophy.

Abstract: Disorders of the brain can exhibit considerable epidemiological comorbidity and often share symptoms, provoking debate about their etiologic overlap.We quantified the genetic sharing of 25 brain disorders from genome-wide association studies of 265,218 patients and 784,643 control participants and assessed their relationship to 17 phenotypes from 1,191,588 individuals. Psychiatric disorders share common variant risk, whereas neurological disorders appear more distinct from one another and from the psychiatric disorders. We also identified significant sharing between disorders and a number of brain phenotypes, including cognitive measures. Further, we conducted simulations to explore how statistical power, diagnostic misclassification, and phenotypic heterogeneity affect genetic correlations. These results highlight the importance of common genetic variation as a risk factor for brain disorders and the value of heritability-based methods in understanding their etiology.

Abstract: Disorders of the brain can exhibit considerable epidemiological comorbidity and often share symptoms, provoking debate about their etiologic overlap.We quantified the genetic sharing of 25 brain disorders from genome-wide association studies of 265,218 patients and 784,643 control participants and assessed their relationship to 17 phenotypes from 1,191,588 individuals. Psychiatric disorders share common variant risk, whereas neurological disorders appear more distinct from one another and from the psychiatric disorders. We also identified significant sharing between disorders and a number of brain phenotypes, including cognitive measures. Further, we conducted simulations to explore how statistical power, diagnostic misclassification, and phenotypic heterogeneity affect genetic correlations. These results highlight the importance of common genetic variation as a risk factor for brain disorders and the value of heritability-based methods in understanding their etiology.

Abstract: Disorders of the brain can exhibit considerable epidemiological comorbidity and often share symptoms, provoking debate about their etiologic overlap.We quantified the genetic sharing of 25 brain disorders from genome-wide association studies of 265,218 patients and 784,643 control participants and assessed their relationship to 17 phenotypes from 1,191,588 individuals. Psychiatric disorders share common variant risk, whereas neurological disorders appear more distinct from one another and from the psychiatric disorders. We also identified significant sharing between disorders and a number of brain phenotypes, including cognitive measures. Further, we conducted simulations to explore how statistical power, diagnostic misclassification, and phenotypic heterogeneity affect genetic correlations. These results highlight the importance of common genetic variation as a risk factor for brain disorders and the value of heritability-based methods in understanding their etiology.

Abstract: Disorders of the brain can exhibit considerable epidemiological comorbidity and often share symptoms, provoking debate about their etiologic overlap.We quantified the genetic sharing of 25 brain disorders from genome-wide association studies of 265,218 patients and 784,643 control participants and assessed their relationship to 17 phenotypes from 1,191,588 individuals. Psychiatric disorders share common variant risk, whereas neurological disorders appear more distinct from one another and from the psychiatric disorders. We also identified significant sharing between disorders and a number of brain phenotypes, including cognitive measures. Further, we conducted simulations to explore how statistical power, diagnostic misclassification, and phenotypic heterogeneity affect genetic correlations. These results highlight the importance of common genetic variation as a risk factor for brain disorders and the value of heritability-based methods in understanding their etiology.

Abstract: Epilepsy comprises several syndromes, amongst the most common being mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis. Seizures in mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis are typically drug-resistant, and mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis is frequently associated with important co-morbidities, mandating the search for better understanding and treatment. The cause of mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis is unknown, but there is an association with childhood febrile seizures. Several rarer epilepsies featuring febrile seizures are caused by mutations in SCN1A, which encodes a brain-expressed sodium channel subunit targeted by many anti-epileptic drugs. We undertook a genome-wide association study in 1018 people with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis and 7552 control subjects, with validation in an independent sample set comprising 959 people with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis and 3591 control subjects. To dissect out variants related to a history of febrile seizures, we tested cases with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis with (overall n = 757) and without (overall n = 803) a history of febrile seizures. Meta-analysis revealed a genome-wide significant association for mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis with febrile seizures at the sodium channel gene cluster on chromosome 2q24.3 [rs7587026, within an intron of the SCN1A gene, P = 3.36 × 10−9, odds ratio (A) = 1.42, 95% confidence interval: 1.26-1.59]. In a cohort of 172 individuals with febrile seizures, who did not develop epilepsy during prospective follow-up to age 13 years, and 6456 controls, no association was found for rs7587026 and febrile seizures. These findings suggest SCN1A involvement in a common epilepsy syndrome, give new direction to biological understanding of mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis with febrile seizures, and o

Abstract: Partial epilepsies have a substantial heritability. However, the actual genetic causes are largely unknown. In contrast to many other common diseases for which genetic association-studies have successfully revealed common variants associated with disease risk, the role of common variation in partial epilepsies has not yet been explored in a well-powered study. We undertook a genome-wide association-study to identify common variants which influence risk for epilepsy shared amongst partial epilepsy syndromes, in 3445 patients and 6935 controls of European ancestry. We did not identify any genome-wide significant association. A few single nucleotide polymorphisms may warrant further investigation. We exclude common genetic variants with effect sizes above a modest 1.3 odds ratio for a single variant as contributors to genetic susceptibility shared across the partial epilepsies. We show that, at best, common genetic variation can only have a modest role in predisposition to the partial epilepsies when considered across syndromes in Europeans. The genetic architecture of the partial epilepsies is likely to be very complex, reflecting genotypic and phenotypic heterogeneity. Larger meta-analyses are required to identify variants of smaller effect sizes (odds ratio <1.3) or syndrome-specific variants. Further, our results suggest research efforts should also be directed towards identifying the multiple rare variants likely to account for at least part of the heritability of the partial epilepsies. Data emerging from genome-wide association-studies will be valuable during the next serious challenge of interpreting all the genetic variation emerging from whole-genome sequencing studies

Subjects: *SEIZURES (Medicine), *DRUGS, *DIRECT action, *MEDICAL care, *DISEASE progression
Abstract: A variety of terms, such as "antiepileptic," "anticonvulsant," and "antiseizure" have been historically applied to medications for the treatment of seizure disorders. Terminology is important because using terms that do not accurately reflect the action of specific treatments may result in a misunderstanding of their effects and inappropriate use. The present International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) position paper used a Delphi approach to develop recommendations on English‐language terminology applicable to pharmacological agents currently approved for treating seizure disorders. There was consensus that these medications should be collectively named "antiseizure medications". This term accurately reflects their primarily symptomatic effect against seizures and reduces the possibility of health care practitioners, patients, or caregivers having undue expectations or an incorrect understanding of the real action of these medications. The term "antiseizure" to describe these agents does not exclude the possibility of beneficial effects on the course of the disease and comorbidities that result from the downstream effects of seizures, whenever these beneficial effects can be explained solely by the suppression of seizure activity. It is acknowledged that other treatments, mostly under development, can exert direct favorable actions on the underlying disease or its progression, by having "antiepileptogenic" or "disease‐modifying" effects. A more‐refined terminology to describe precisely these actions needs to be developed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Subjects: *MYOCLONUS, *WEARABLE technology, *PHARMACODYNAMICS, *HOME environment, *DISEASE progression, *FUNCTIONAL status
Abstract: • First study to perform long-term home monitoring of negative myoclonus with wearable sensors. • Silent periods associated with negative myoclonus can be successfully detected and quantified from surface electromyography data. • Silent period findings correlate with clinically assessed patients' myoclonus severity and functional status. The aim of this study was to develop a feasible method for the detection of negative myoclonus (NM) through long-term home measurements in patients with progressive myoclonus epilepsy type 1. The number and duration of silent periods (SP) associated with NM were detected during a 48 h home recording using wearable surface electromyography (EMG) sensors. A newly developed algorithm was able to find short (50–69 ms), intermediate (70–100 ms), and long (101– 500 ms) SPs from EMG data. Negative myoclonus assessed by the algorithm correlated significantly with the video-recorded and physician-evaluated unified myoclonus rating scale (UMRS) scores of NM and action myoclonus. Silent period duration, number, and their combination, correlated strongly and significantly also with the Singer score, which assesses functional status and ambulation. Negative myoclonus can be determined objectively using long-term EMG measurements in home environment. With long-term measurements, we can acquire more reliable quantified information about NM as a symptom, compared to short evaluation at the clinic. As measured using SPs, NM may be a clinically useful measure for monitoring disease progression or assessing antimyoclonic drug effects objectively. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: Objectives: To study prospectively the effects of propofol anesthesia on seizure control, hemodynamics and course of intensive care in patients with refractory status epilepticus.Design and Setting: Prospective observational study in the general intensive care unit in a tertiary university hospital.Patients: Ten patients with refractory status epilepticus.Interventions: Patients received propofol anesthesia aiming to burst suppression EEG pattern for 12 h.Measurements and Results: Dose of propofol, quality of burst suppression EEG, hemodynamics and the course of intensive care were recorded. Clinical and electrophysiological seizures terminated quickly, but maintaining burst suppression EEG pattern required incremental doses of propofol. Despite high doses of propofol, recovery from anesthesia was fast.Conclusions: High doses of propofol are needed in the treatment of refractory status epilepticus. The maintenance of continuous-burst suppression is difficult, and vigilant titrating of dosage of propofol is necessary under continuous EEG monitoring. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

273. The burden of chronic drug-refractory focal onset epilepsy: Can it be prevented?

Author: Ben-Menachem, Elinor, Schmitz, Bettina, Kälviäinen, Reetta, Thomas, Rhys H, and Klein, Pavel
Subjects: *EPILEPSY, *PARTIAL epilepsy, *MEDICAL personnel, *SEIZURES (Medicine), *PEOPLE with epilepsy, *PSYCHOLOGICAL distress, *NEUROPSYCHOLOGICAL rehabilitation, *NEUROREHABILITATION
Abstract: • Quality of life (QoL) in people with drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) perceives a considerable burden of disease, which goes beyond the direct effects of seizure frequency and type. • Their QoL is impaired by the interference of medical and psychological comorbidities in their daily activities and anxiety in engaging in social interactions. • Neurologists can work with the patient towards a better QoL by acting on several fronts: addressing side effects and what the patient is willing to tolerate in favour of seizure reduction, taking advantage of added benefits of newer antiseizure medications (ASMs), promptly referring patients with complex management to specialized centres as needed, or to less-known interventions such as cognitive rehabilitation. Despite the many therapeutic options for epilepsy available today, a third of patients still have poorly controlled epilepsy. Over the years, their transition through lines of treatment exposes them to increased risk of disease progression, mortality, morbidity, mental distress, and not least significantly impaired quality of life (QoL). The present review explores the multiple factors contributing to the impairment of health-related QoL in PWE–including both seizure-related and non seizure-related. The analysis aims to identify potential areas of intervention and strategies for a more holistic approach to epilepsy care and inform policy-makers and healthcare providers in their approach to this condition.

Subjects: *ALZHEIMER'S disease, *GLIAL fibrillary acidic protein, *TAU proteins, *TRAUMA registries, *COGNITIVE ability, *COGNITION
Abstract: Successful development of novel therapies requires that clinical trials are conducted in patient cohorts with the highest benefit-to-risk ratio. Population-based biobanks with comprehensive health and genetic data from large numbers of individuals hold promise to facilitate identification of trial participants, particularly when interventions need to start while symptoms are still mild, such as for Alzheimer's disease (AD). This study describes a process for clinical recall studies from FinnGen. We demonstrate the feasibility to systematically ascertain customized clinical data from FinnGen participants with ICD10 diagnosis of AD or mild cognitive disorder (MCD) in a single-center cross-sectional study testing blood-based biomarkers and cognitive functioning in-person, computer-based and remote. As a result, 19% (27/140) of a pre-specified FinnGen subcohort were successfully recalled and completed the study. Hospital records largely validated registry entries. For 8/12 MCD patients, other reasons than AD were identified as underlying diagnosis. Cognitive measures correlated across platforms, with highest consistencies for dementia screening (r = 0.818) and semantic fluency (r = 0.764), respectively, for in-person versus telephone-administered tests. Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) (p < 0.002) and phosphorylated-tau 181 (pTau-181) (p < 0.020) most reliably differentiated AD from MCD participants. We conclude that informative, customized clinical recall studies from FinnGen are feasible. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: Sixty adult patients with partial epilepsy who have been treated with vigabatrin for 7 months to 14 years as mono- or add-on therapy were examined with repeated kinetic Goldmann perimetries to evaluate the prevalence, risk factors, and long-term outcome of vigabatrin-associated visual field defects. A follow-up examination was performed after 4 to 38 months (mean, 15 ± 7) in 55 patients, 29 of whom had discontinued vigabatrin therapy. Neither reversion nor progression in visual field constriction was observed.

Subjects: *TRANSCRANIAL magnetic stimulation, *SPINOCEREBELLAR ataxia, *EPILEPSY, *GENOTYPES, *VIMPAT
Abstract: Objective: Progressive myoclonic epilepsy type 1 (EPM1) is caused by biallelic alterations in the CSTB gene, most commonly dodecamer repeat expansions. Although transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS)–induced long‐interval intracortical inhibition (LICI) was previously reported to be normal in EPM1, short‐interval intracortical inhibition (SICI) was reduced. We explored the association between these measures and the clinical and genetic features in a separate group of patients with EPM1. Methods: TMS combined with electromyography was performed under neuronavigation. LICI was induced with an inter‐stimulus interval (ISI) of 100 ms, and SICI with ISIs of 2 and 3 ms, and their means (mSICIs) were expressed as the ratio of conditioned to unconditioned stimuli. LICI and mSICI were compared between patients and controls. Nonparametric correlation was used to study the association between inhibition and parameters of clinical severity, including the Unified Myoclonus Rating Scale (UMRS); among patients with EPM1 due to biallelic expansion repeats, also the association with the number of repeats was assessed. Results: The study protocol was completed in 19 patients (15 with biallelic expansion repeats and 4 compound heterozygotes), and 7 healthy, age‐ and sex‐matched control participants. Compared to controls, patients demonstrated significantly less SICI (median mSICI ratio 1.18 vs 0.38; p <.001). Neither LICI nor SICI was associated with parameters of clinical severity. In participants with biallelic repeat expansions, the number of repeats in the more affected allele (greater repeat number [GRN]) correlated with LICI (rho = 0.872; p <.001) and SICI (rho = 0.689; p =.006). Significance: Our results strengthen the finding of deranged γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA)ergic inhibition in EPM1. LICI and SICI may have use as markers of GABAergic impairment in future trials of disease‐modifying treatment in this condition. Whether a higher number of expansion repeats leads to greater GABAergic impairment warrants further study. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Subjects: *EPILEPSY, *DELPHI method, *TREATMENT effectiveness, *PEOPLE with epilepsy, *CLINICAL trials, *DEEP brain stimulation
Abstract: Background: A Core Outcome Set (COS) is a standardised list of outcomes that should be reported as a minimum in all clinical trials. In epilepsy, the choice of outcomes varies widely among existing studies, particularly in clinical trials. This diminishes opportunities for informed decision-making, contributes to research waste and is a barrier to integrating findings in systematic reviews and meta-analyses. Furthermore, the outcomes currently being measured may not reflect what is important to people with epilepsy. Therefore, we aim to develop a COS specific to clinical effectiveness research for adults with epilepsy using Delphi consensus methodology.Methods: The EPSET Study will comprise of three phases and follow the core methodological principles as outlined by the Core Outcome Measures in Effectiveness Trials (COMET) Initiative. Phase 1 will include two focused literature reviews to identify candidate outcomes from the qualitative literature and current outcome measurement practice in phase III and phase IV clinical trials. Phase 2 aims to achieve international consensus to define which outcomes should be measured as a minimum in future trials, using a Delphi process including an online consensus meeting involving key stakeholders. Phase 3 will involve dissemination of the ratified COS to facilitate uptake in future trials and the planning of further research to identify the most appropriate measurement instruments to use to capture the COS in research practice.Discussion: Harmonising outcome measurement across future clinical trials should ensure that the outcomes measured are relevant to patients and health services, and allow for more meaningful results to be obtained.Core Outcome Set Registration: COMET Initiative as study 118 .

284. Vigabatrin and Carbamazepine Monotherapy for Newly Diagnosed Epilepsy-Reply

Author: Kälviäinen, Reetta and Riekkinen, Paavo J.
Abstract: IN REPLY We thank Walker et al1 for their comments regarding our article comparing vigabatrin and carbamazepine monotherapy in patients with newly diagnosed epilepsy.While we fully agree with them that the goal of the modern AED treatment should be freedom from seizures, the primary combined efficacy and safety end point of our clinical study was the drug success rate (ie, the proportion of patients continuing successful treatment with the randomly assigned drug) after 12 months of steady-state treatment. Successfully treated patients did not have intolerable side effects and were either seizure-free or had 1 generalized or 1 to 4 partial seizures during 12 months of follow-up. As we mention in the "Comment" section, the open-label design allowed us to approximate good clinical practice with each drug. In normal clinical practice, after starting therapy for a patient with newly diagnosed epilepsy, one does not rush to change the first

Abstract: Stroke is a huge burden on our society and this is expected to grow in the future due to the aging population and the associated co-morbidities. The improvement of acute stroke care has increased the survival rate of stroke patients, and many patients are left with permanent disability, which makes stroke the main cause of adult disability. Unfortunately, many patients face other severe complications such as post-stroke seizures and epilepsy. Acute seizures (ASS) occur within 1 week after the stroke while later occurring unprovoked seizures are diagnosed as post-stroke epilepsy (PSE). Both are associated with a poor prognosis of a functional recovery. The underlying neurobiological mechanisms are complex and poorly understood. There are no universal guidelines on the management of PSE. There is increasing evidence for several risk factors for ASS/PSE, however, the impacts of recanalization, drugs used for secondary prevention of stroke, treatment of stroke co-morbidities and antiseizure medication are currently poorly understood. This review focuses on the common medications that stroke patients are prescribed and potential drug interactions possibly complicating the management of ASS/PSE. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

286. Efficacy and safety of pregabalin versus lamotrigine in patients with newly diagnosed partial seizures: a phase 3, double-blind, randomised, parallel-group trial

Author: Kwan, Patrick, Brodie, Martin J, Kälviäinen, Reetta, Yurkewicz, Lorraine, Weaver, Jerry, and Knapp, Lloyd E
Subjects: *TREATMENT of epilepsy, *PREGABALIN, *LAMOTRIGINE, *SPASMS, *DRUG efficacy, *BLIND experiment, *RANDOMIZED controlled trials, *PATIENTS
Abstract: Summary: Background: Efficacious and safe monotherapy options are needed for adult patients with newly diagnosed epilepsy. As an adjunctive treatment for partial seizures, pregabalin compares favourably with lamotrigine and is an effective, approved treatment. We studied the efficacy and safety of pregabalin as monotherapy, using a design that complied with European regulatory requirements and International League Against Epilepsy guidelines. Methods: This phase 3, double-blind, randomised, non-inferiority study compared the efficacy and tolerability of pregabalin and lamotrigine monotherapy in patients with newly diagnosed partial seizures at 105 centres, mostly in Europe and Asia. Randomisation to treatment groups (1:1 ratio) was by a computer-generated pseudorandom code (random permuted blocks), with patients sequentially assigned numbers by telephone. Investigators, site staff, and patients were masked to the assigned treatment. After randomisation, patients were titrated to either 75 mg oral pregabalin or 50 mg oral lamotrigine twice daily during a 4-week dose-escalation phase, followed by a 52-week efficacy assessment phase during which the daily dose could be increased as needed to a maximum of 600 mg and 500 mg, respectively. The primary efficacy endpoint was the proportion of patients who remained seizure-free for 6 or more continuous months during the efficacy assessment phase; analysis included all patients who were randomly assigned to treatment groups and received at least one dose of study treatment. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT00280059. Findings: 660 patients were randomly assigned to treatment groups (330 pregabalin, 330 lamotrigine), of whom 622 entered the efficacy assessment phase (314 pregabalin, 308 lamotrigine). Fewer patients in the pregabalin group than in the lamotrigine group became seizure-free for 6 or more continuous months (162 [52%] vs 209 [68%]; difference in proportion, −0·16, 95% CI −0·24 to −0·09). The overall incidence of adverse events was similar between the groups and consistent with that in previous studies; dizziness (55 [17%] vs 45 [14%] patients), somnolence (29 [9%] vs 14 [4%]), fatigue (27 [8%] vs 19 [6%]), and weight increase (21 [6%] vs 7 [2%]) were numerically more common in the pregabalin group than in the lamotrigine group. Interpretation: Pregabalin has similar tolerability but seems to have inferior efficacy to lamotrigine for the treatment of newly diagnosed partial seizures in adults. Inferior efficacy of pregabalin might have been attributable to limitations in the study design, as treatment doses might have not been optimised adequately or early enough. Funding: Pfizer Inc.

Subjects: *MYOCLONUS, *BICEPS brachii, *EPILEPSY, *ALGORITHMS, *ELECTROMYOGRAPHY
Abstract: • Wearable surface electromyography and three-dimensional accelerometry can detect both positive and negative myoclonus in EPM1 patients. • Monitored signal parameters correlate with the myoclonus severity of arms with action of Unified Myoclonus Rating Scale. • Monitoring-based myoclonus index follows fluctuations in the degree of myoclonus at the patient's home. To develop and test wearable monitoring of surface electromyography and motion for detection and quantification of positive and negative myoclonus in patients with progressive myoclonic epilepsy type 1 (EPM1). Surface electromyography and three-dimensional acceleration were measured from 23 EPM1 patients from the biceps brachii (BB) of the dominant and the extensor digitorum communis (EDC) of the non-dominant arm for 48 hours. The patients self-reported the degree of myoclonus in a diary once an hour. Severity of myoclonus with action was evaluated by using video-recorded Unified Myoclonus Rating Scale (UMRS). Correlations of monitored parameters were quantified with the UMRS scores and the self-reported degrees of myoclonus. The monitoring-based myoclonus index correlated significantly (p < 0.001) with the UMRS scores (ρ = 0.883 for BB and ρ = 0.823 for EDC) and with the self-reported myoclonus degrees (ρ = 0.483 for BB and ρ = 0.443 for EDC). Ten patients were assessed as probably having negative myoclonus in UMRS, while our algorithm detected that in twelve patients. Wearable monitoring was able to detect both positive and negative myoclonus in EPM1 patients. Our method is suitable for quantifying objective, real-life treatment effects at home and progression of myoclonus. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: The genetics of autosomal recessive intellectual disability (ARID) has mainly been studied in consanguineous families, however, founder populations may also be of interest to study intellectual disability (ID) and the contribution of ARID. Here, we used a genotype-driven approach to study the genetic landscape of ID in the founder population of Finland. A total of 39 families with syndromic and non-syndromic ID were analyzed using exome sequencing, which revealed a variant in a known ID gene in 27 families. Notably, 75% of these variants in known ID genes were de novo or suspected de novo (64% autosomal dominant; 11% X-linked) and 25% were inherited (14% autosomal recessive; 7% X-linked; and 4% autosomal dominant). A dual molecular diagnosis was suggested in two families (5%). Via additional analysis and molecular testing, we identified three cases with an abnormal molecular karyotype, including chr21q22.12q22.2 uniparental disomy with a mosaic interstitial 2.7 Mb deletion covering DYRK1A and KCNJ6. Overall, a pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant was identified in 64% (25/39) of the families. Last, we report an alternate inheritance model for 3 known ID genes (UBA7, DDX47, DHX58) and discuss potential candidate genes for ID, including SYPL1 and ERGIC3 with homozygous founder variants and de novo variants in POLR2F and DNAH3. In summary, similar to other European populations, de novo variants were the most common variants underlying ID in the studied Finnish population, with limited contribution of ARID to ID etiology, though mainly driven by founder and potential founder variation in the latter case.

Subjects: *STATUS epilepticus, *SEIZURES (Medicine), *INTENSIVE care units
Abstract: The objective of this study was to determine the incidence in Eastern Finland of the different stages of status epilepticus (SE): 1) at the early stage of SE (a prolonged seizure lasting over 5 min);, 2) refractory SE (RSE), and 3) super-refractory SE (SRSE). Firstly, we conducted a retrospective study on the incidence and outcome of intensive care unit (ICU)-treated RSE and SRSE in the adult population (≥ 16 years) in Kuopio University Hospital (KUH)'s special care responsibility area (840,000 inhabitants). Secondly, we conducted a prospective study using the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE)'s new definition for SE (prolonged seizures lasting over 5 min), in adult (≥ 16 years) patients in the KUH municipality district (North Savo, 248,000 inhabitants). The retrospective study on ICU-treated RSE and SRSE from 2010 to 2012 identified 75 patients with RSE, of whom 21% were treated as SRSE, resulting in an annual age-adjusted incidence of ICU-treated RSE of 3.0/100,000 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.4–3.8) and 0.6/100,000 (95% CI: 0.4–1.0) for SRSE. In the prospective study of early stage SE (seizures lasting over 5 min), we identified 151 consecutive episodes during the 9-month study period in 2015, corresponding to an annual age-adjusted incidence of 81.1/100,000 (95% CI: 75.8–87.0). In this study, 11 seizure episodes became refractory, resulting in an age-adjusted incidence of RSE of 6.0/100,000 (95% CI: 3.4–10.4), of which seven were treated in the ICU [3.8/100,000 (95% CI: 1.8–7.8)], four were treated palliatively [2.2/100,000 (95% CI: 0.82–5.7)], and two evolved to SRSE [1.1/100,000 (95% CI: 0.3–4.3)]. The new ILAE 2015 definition of SE resulted in a four-fold increase in incidence of SE compared to the earlier 30-min definition reported earlier in Europe. In the epidemiology of RSE, the incidence of ICU-treated RSE, palliatively treated RSE, and SRSE needs to be separated. This article is part of the Special Issue "Proceedings of the 7th London-Innsbruck Colloquium on Status Epilepticus and Acute Seizures. • The incidence of status epilepticus lasting over 5 minutes is 80/100,000. • The new 2015 ILAE 5-minute definition of SE led to a four-fold increase in incidence of SE compared to the 30-minute definition. • Most SE cases can be treated with first and second-line treatments. • The incidence of ICU-treated RSE, ICU-treated SRSE and palliatively-treated RSE needs to be separated. • The incidence of ICU-treated RSE is 3–4/100,000, palliatively-treated RSE 2/100,000 and SRSE 1/100,000.

Abstract: Objectives: To assess tolerability and efficacy of lacosamide in adults with cerebrovascular epilepsy etiology (CVEE). Materials and methods: Exploratory post hoc analyses of a double‐blind, initial monotherapy trial of lacosamide vs carbamazepine‐controlled release (carbamazepine‐CR) (SP0993; NCT01243177); a double‐blind conversion to lacosamide monotherapy trial (SP0902; NCT00520741); and an observational study of adjunctive lacosamide added to one antiepileptic drug (SP0973 VITOBA; NCT01098162). Patients with CVEE were identified based on epilepsy etiology recorded at baseline. Results: In the initial monotherapy trial, 61 patients had CVEE (lacosamide: 27; carbamazepine‐CR: 34). 20 (74.1%) patients on lacosamide (27 [79.4%] on carbamazepine‐CR) reported treatment‐emergent adverse events (TEAEs), most commonly (≥10%) headache, dizziness, and fatigue (carbamazepine‐CR: headache, dizziness). A numerically higher proportion of patients on lacosamide than carbamazepine‐CR completed 6 months (22 [81.5%]; 20 [58.8%]) and 12 months (18 [66.7%]; 17 [50.0%]) treatment without seizure at last evaluated dose. In the conversion to monotherapy trial, 26/30 (86.7%) patients with CVEE reported TEAEs, most commonly (≥4 patients) dizziness, convulsion, fatigue, headache, somnolence, and cognitive disorder. During lacosamide monotherapy, 17 (56.7%) patients were 50% responders and six (20.0%) were seizure‐free. In the observational study, 36/83 (43.4%) patients with CVEE reported TEAEs, most commonly (≥5%) fatigue and dizziness. Effectiveness was assessed for 75 patients. During the last 3 months, 60 (80%) were 50% responders and 42 (56.0%) were seizure‐free. Conclusions: These exploratory post hoc analyses suggested lacosamide was generally well tolerated and effective in patients with CVEE, with data from the initial monotherapy trial suggesting numerically better efficacy than carbamazepine‐CR.

Methods A retrospective study of ICU- and anesthesia-treated RSE patients in Kuopio University Hospital’s (KUH) special responsibility area hospitals in the central and eastern part of Finland from Jan. 1, 2010 to Dec. 31, 2012 was conducted. KUH’s catchment area consists of five hospitals—one university hospital and four central hospitals—and covers a population of 840 000. We included all consecutive adult (16 years or older) RSE patients admitted in the participating ICUs during the 3-year period and excluded patients with postanoxic etiologies. We used a modified Rankin Scale (mRS) as a long-term (1-year) outcome measure: good (mRS 0–3, recovered to baseline function) or poor (mRS 4–6, major functional deficit or death). Key findings We identified 75 patients with ICU- and anesthesia-treated RSE, corresponding to an annual incidence of 3.0 (95% confidence interval (CI) 2.4–3.8). 21% of the patients were classified as SRSE, with the annual incidence being 0.6/100 000 (95% CI 0.4–1.0). For RSE, the ICU mortality was 0%, hospital mortality was 7% (95% CI 1.2%–12.8%) (n = 5), and one-year mortality was 23% (CI 95% 13.4%–32.5%) (n = 17). 48% (n = 36) of RSE patients recovered to baseline, and 29% (n = 22) showed neurological deficit at 1 year. Poor outcome (mRS 4–6) was recorded for 52% (n = 39) of the patients. Older age was associated with poorer outcome at 1 year (p = 0.03). For SRSE, hospital mortality was 6% (n = 1) and 1-year mortality was 19% (n = 3) (95%CI 0%–38.2%). Significance During 1-year follow-up, nearly 50% of the ICU-treated RSE patients recovered to baseline function, whereas 30% showed new functional defects and 20% died. SRSE does not have a necessarily poorer outcome. The outcome is worse in older patients and in patients with progressive or fatal etiologies. SE should be treated with generalized anesthesia only in refractory cases after failure of adequately used first- and second-line antiepileptic drugs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

293. Epilepsy priorities in Europe: A report of the ILAE- IBE Epilepsy Advocacy Europe Task Force.

Author: Baulac, Michel, Boer, Hanneke, Elger, Christian, Glynn, Mike, Kälviäinen, Reetta, Little, Ann, Mifsud, Janet, Perucca, Emilio, Pitkänen, Asla, and Ryvlin, Philippe
Subjects: *TREATMENT of epilepsy, *PATIENT advocacy, *MEDICINE & politics, *MEDICAL care costs, *BIOMARKERS, EPILEPSY research
Abstract: The European Forum on Epilepsy Research ( ERF2013), which took place in Dublin, Ireland, on May 26-29, 2013, was designed to appraise epilepsy research priorities in Europe through consultation with clinical and basic scientists as well as representatives of lay organizations and health care providers. The ultimate goal was to provide a platform to improve the lives of persons with epilepsy by influencing the political agenda of the EU. The Forum highlighted the epidemiologic, medical, and social importance of epilepsy in Europe, and addressed three separate but closely related concepts. First, possibilities were explored as to how the stigma and social burden associated with epilepsy could be reduced through targeted initiatives at EU national and regional levels. Second, ways to ensure optimal standards of care throughout Europe were specifically discussed. Finally, a need for further funding in epilepsy research within the European Horizon 2020 funding programme was communicated to politicians and policymakers participating to the forum. Research topics discussed specifically included (1) epilepsy in the developing brain; (2) novel targets for innovative diagnostics and treatment of epilepsy; (3) what is required for prevention and cure of epilepsy; and (4) epilepsy and comorbidities, with a special focus on aging and mental health. This report provides a summary of recommendations that emerged at ERF2013 about how to (1) strengthen epilepsy research, (2) reduce the treatment gap, and (3) reduce the burden and stigma associated with epilepsy. Half of the 6 million European citizens with epilepsy feel stigmatized and experience social exclusion, stressing the need for funding trans-European awareness campaigns and monitoring their impact on stigma, in line with the global commitment of the European Commission and with the recommendations made in the 2011 Written Declaration on Epilepsy. Epilepsy care has high rates of misdiagnosis and considerable variability in organization and quality across European countries, translating into huge societal cost (0.2% GDP) and stressing the need for cost-effective programs of harmonization and optimization of epilepsy care throughout Europe. There is currently no cure or prevention for epilepsy, and 30% of affected persons are not controlled by current treatments, stressing the need for pursuing research efforts in the field within Horizon 2020. Priorities should include (1) development of innovative biomarkers and therapeutic targets and strategies, from gene and cell-based therapies to technologically advanced surgical treatment; (2) addressing issues raised by pediatric and aging populations, as well as by specific etiologies and comorbidities such as traumatic brain injury (TBI) and cognitive dysfunction, toward more personalized medicine and prevention; and (3) translational studies and clinical trials built upon well-established European consortia.

294. Valproate in the treatment of epilepsy in girls and women of childbearing potential.

Author: Tomson, Torbjörn, Marson, Anthony, Boon, Paul, Canevini, Maria Paola, Covanis, Athanasios, Gaily, Eija, Kälviäinen, Reetta, and Trinka, Eugen
Subjects: *TREATMENT of epilepsy, *VALPROIC acid, *MATERNAL age, *DEVELOPMENTAL disabilities, *DISEASES in women
Abstract: This document provides guidance on the use of valproate in girls and women of childbearing age from a joint Task Force of the Commission on European Affairs of the International League Against Epilepsy ( CEA- ILAE) and the European Academy of Neurology ( EAN), following strengthened warnings from the Coordination Group for Mutual Recognition and Decentralised Procedures-Human ( CMDh) of the European Medicines Agency ( EMA), which highlight the risk of malformations and developmental problems in infants who are exposed to valproate in the womb. To produce these recommendations, the Task Force has considered teratogenic risks associated with use of valproate and treatment alternatives, the importance of seizure control and of patient and fetal risks with seizures, and the effectiveness of valproate and treatment alternatives in the treatment of different epilepsies. The Task Force's recommendations include the following: (1) Where possible, valproate should be avoided in women of childbearing potential. (2) The choice of treatment for girls and women of childbearing potential should be based on a shared decision between clinician and patient, and where appropriate, the patient's representatives. Discussions should include a careful risk-benefit assessment of reasonable treatment options for the patient's seizure or epilepsy type. (3) For seizure (or epilepsy) types where valproate is the most effective treatment, the risks and benefits of valproate and other treatment alternatives should be discussed. (4) Valproate should not be prescribed as a first-line treatment for focal epilepsy. (5) Valproate may be offered as a first-line treatment for epilepsy syndromes where it is the most effective treatment, including idiopathic (genetic) generalized syndromes associated with tonic-clonic seizures. (6) Valproate may be offered as a first-line treatment in situations where pregnancy is highly unlikely (e.g., significant intellectual or physical disability). (7) Women and girls taking valproate require regular follow-up for ongoing consideration of the most appropriate treatment regimen. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

295. Reduced cortical activation in inferior frontal junction in Unverricht–Lundborg disease (EPM1) – A motor fMRI study.

Author: Könönen, Mervi, Danner, Nils, Koskenkorva, Päivi, Kälviäinen, Reetta, Hyppönen, Jelena, Mervaala, Esa, Karjalainen, Pasi, Vanninen, Ritva, and Niskanen, Eini
Subjects: *PEOPLE with epilepsy, *FUNCTIONAL magnetic resonance imaging, *NEUROPHYSIOLOGY, *EPILEPSY, *MOVEMENT disorders
Abstract: Summary Background Unverricht–Lundborg disease (EPM1) is characterized by stimulus-sensitive and action-activated myoclonus, tonic–clonic seizures and ataxia. Several disease-related alterations in cortical structure and excitability have been associated with the motor symptoms of EPM1. This study aimed to elucidate possible alterations in cortical activation related to motor performance in EPM1. Methods Fifteen EPM1-patients and 15 healthy volunteers matched for age and sex underwent motor functional MRI. Group differences in activations were evaluated in the primary and supplementary motor cortices and sensory cortical areas. Furthermore, in EPM1 patients, the quantitative fMRI parameters were correlated with the severity of the motor symptoms. Results The EPM1-patients exhibited decreased activation in the left inferior frontal junction (IFJ) during right hand voluntary motor task when compared with controls. In the quantitative analysis, EPM1-patients had significantly weaker activation than controls in the hand knob and supplementary motor areas (SMA). The volume of activation in M1 decreased with age and duration of disease in the patient group, whereas the volume increased with age in controls. Negative correlations were observed between fMRI parameters of SMA and disease duration or age in patients but not in controls. Conclusions The weaker motor fMRI activation observed in EPM1 patients parallels previous neurophysiological findings and correlates with the motor symptoms of the disease. Thus, the observed decrease in IFJ activation in EPM1 patients may be associated with the difficulties in initiation or termination of motor execution, a typical clinical symptom in EPM1. The fMRI findings reflect the progressive nature of this disease. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: Long-term cognitive and memory performance after surgical treatment of unilateral temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) was investigated in a series of 98 patients. Neuropsychological evaluation was performed preoperatively and after one and three years postoperatively. Fifty-eight patients (59%) became seizure-free (Engel's class I). Verbal learning and memory declined in long-term follow-up in both left and right TLE groups. Visual memory remained stable. Ongoing postoperative seizures were related to decline in the immediate recall of logical prose, and postoperative seizure-freedom to improvement in verbal fluency in patients with left TLE. There was significant variability in the individual postoperative long-term memory performance. Left side of surgery, better baseline performance and older age at surgery were identified as risk factors for individual decline in delayed verbal memory. Selected patients undergoing surgery for drug-resistant TLE are at risk for significant postoperative memory decline especially after left temporal lobe surgery. Preoperative counseling and long-term follow-up of cognitive performance in individual patients is recommended. Additionally, more accurate predictors of individual postoperative memory performance would be needed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

299. Thickened skull, scoliosis and other skeletal findings in Unverricht–Lundborg disease link cystatin B function to bone metabolism

Author: Suoranta, Sanna, Manninen, Hannu, Koskenkorva, Päivi, Könönen, Mervi, Laitinen, Rita, Lehesjoki, Anna-Elina, Kälviäinen, Reetta, and Vanninen, Ritva
Subjects: *SCOLIOSIS, *CYSTATINS, *BONE metabolism, *EPILEPSY, *OSTEOCLASTS, *GENETIC mutation, *GENETIC code, *BONE resorption
Abstract: Abstract: Purpose: Unverricht–Lundborg disease (EPM1) is a rare type of inherited progressive myoclonic epilepsy resulting from mutations in the cystatin B gene, CSTB, which encodes a cysteine cathepsin inhibitor. Cystatin B, cathepsin K, and altered osteoclast bone resorption activity are interconnected in vitro. This study evaluated the skeletal characteristics of patients with EPM1. Methods: Sixty-six genetically verified EPM1 patients and 50 healthy controls underwent head MRI. Skull dimensions and regional calvarial thickness was measured perpendicular to each calvarial bone from T1-weighted 3-dimensional images using multiple planar reconstruction tools. All clinical X-ray files of EPM1 patients were collected and reviewed by an experienced radiologist. A total of 337 X-ray studies were analyzed, and non-traumatic structural anomalies, dysplasias and deformities were registered. Results: EPM1 patients exhibited significant thickening in all measured cranial bones compared to healthy controls. The mean skull thickness was 10.0±2.0mm in EPM1 patients and 7.6±1.2mm in healthy controls (p<0.001). The difference was evident in all age groups and was not explained by former phenytoin use. Observed abnormalities in other skeletal structures in EPM1 patients included thoracic scoliosis (35% of EPM1 patients) and lumbar spine scoliosis (35%), large paranasal sinuses (27%), accessory ossicles of the foot, and arachnodactyly (18%). Conclusions: Skull thickening and an increased prevalence of abnormal findings in skeletal radiographs of patients with EPM1 suggest that this condition is connected to defective cystatin B function. These findings further emphasize the role of cystatin B in bone metabolism in humans. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

300. Non-invasive preoperative localization of primary motor cortex in epilepsy surgery by navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation

Author: Säisänen, Laura, Könönen, Mervi, Julkunen, Petro, Määttä, Sara, Vanninen, Ritva, Immonen, Arto, Jutila, Leena, Kälviäinen, Reetta, Jääskeläinen, Juha E., and Mervaala, Esa
Subjects: *MOTOR cortex, *EPILEPSY surgery, *TRANSCRANIAL magnetic stimulation, *DYSPLASIA, *CEREBRAL hemispheres, *MEDICAL equipment
Abstract: Summary: Background: Navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (nTMS) is a non-invasive method to localize the primary motor cortex (M1). Objective/Hypothesis: To assess the safety and feasibility of nTMS as a non-invasive preoperative mode of functional localization of M1 in epilepsy surgery candidates with intractable focal epilepsy due to lesions in the vicinity of M1. Methods: We mapped the muscle representation areas of M1 with nTMS in 10 patients (age 2 to 55 years) with intractable epilepsy. The lesions were focal cortical dysplasia (n =6), ganglioglioma (n =2) polymicrogyria (n =1) or dysembryoblastic neuroepithelial tumour (n =1). The optimal stimulation sites and motor threshold (MT) of the distal hand or leg muscles were determined in both hemispheres. Cortical areas were mapped with stimulation intensities 100–120% of the MT to localize functional M1. Patients were on their stabile antiepileptic medication, and EEG was continuously monitored. The clinical benefit obtained with the preoperative nTMS mapping in the surgical decision making was scored as (1) essential, (2) beneficial, or (3) not beneficial, depending mainly on the difference between the functional and the presumed anatomic M1. Results: The M1 was successfully assessed in all but the 2 youngest patients (aged 2 and 5 years), in whom nTMS was unable to elicit motor responses. nTMS was regarded as essential or beneficial in the localization of M1 in relation to the lesions in 6 out of 10 cases. The optimal motor representation areas were mainly located symmetrically on the precentral gyrus, and corresponded to the presumed location of M1 in MRI. No clinical or EEG evidence of acute epileptogenic adverse effects were observed during the localization procedure. None of the operated patients developed post-operative motor deficits. Conclusions: nTMS is a safe and feasible clinical tool for the non-invasive preoperative localization of motor cortex in patients with intractable epilepsy due to focal lesions adjacent or within the presumed M1 in MRI.
