Aim: No comprehensive and objective methods yet exist for predicting postoperative seizure.
Patients & Methods: mRNA-seq data and corresponding postoperative seizure status of 109 low-grade glioma samples were obtained from Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas database and divided into two sets randomly. Logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic analysis with risk score method were used to develop a ten-gene prediction model.
Results: Considering gene number and area under the curve of receiver operating characteristic, a ten-gene model was generated which showed an area under the curve of 0.9965 in training set. Patients with high-risk scores had higher probability of postoperative seizure compared with those with low-risk scores.
Conclusion: This is the first prediction model for postoperative seizures in gliomas, integrating multiple genes. Clinical application may help patients with postoperative seizure control.

Neonates with congenital heart disease (CHD) who undergo cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) are at high-risk for unfavorable neurodevelopmental (ND) outcomes and are recommended for ND evaluation (NDE); however, poor rates have been reported. We aimed to identify risk factors associated with lack of NDE. This single-center retrospective observational study included neonates < 30 days old who underwent CPB and survived to discharge between 2012 and 2018.

Aims: Drug-refractory epilepsy (DRE) refers to the failure of controlling seizures with adequate trials of two tolerated and appropriately chosen anti-seizure medications (ASMs). For patients with DRE, surgical intervention becomes the most effective and viable treatment, but its success rate is unsatisfactory at only approximately 50%. Predicting surgical outcomes in advance can provide additional guidance to clinicians.

Management of cases of anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) antibody-mediated encephalitis is very challenging to anaesthesiologists as this receptor is the target of many anaesthetics. We report a woman diagnosed with anti-NMDA antibody-mediated encephalitis posted for laparotomy. She presented with generalised tonic-clonic seizures.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigated how metabolic brain network connectivity changes in patients with drug-resistant mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (DR-MTLE) affect surgical outcomes.
- Patients (87) who underwent surgery were divided into seizure-free (SF) and non-seizure-free (NSF) groups, alongside a control group of healthy individuals (38).
- Results showed that both patient groups had reduced metabolic connectivity compared to healthy controls, with the NSF group experiencing more significant disruptions, particularly in key brain networks, suggesting potential reasons for poor postoperative seizure control and implications for preoperative assessments.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the optimal timing for surgery after traumatic brain injury (TBI) and its effect on inflammatory cytokine levels.
- It involved 82 TBI patients with depressed skull fractures, analyzing pre-and postoperative serum samples using a specialized assay to measure cytokine levels.
- Results indicated that surgeries performed after 48 hours post-injury were associated with significantly higher TNF-α levels, while factors like post-traumatic seizures and neurological deficits influenced cytokine responses.
