Eating epilepsy is rare and comprises reflex seizures induced by food intake presenting with broad clinical manifestations. Despite this heterogeneity, a unique focal impaired awareness seizure semiology localizing to specific brain regions has been noted. Here, we present a case with video-EEG depicting this characteristic clinical presentation and its informative electrographic correlate. [Published with video sequence].

Nonapoptotic caspase-3 guides C1q-dependent synaptic phagocytosis by microglia.

Caspases are known to mediate neuronal apoptosis during brain development. However, here we show that nonapoptotic activation of caspase-3 at presynapses drives microglial synaptic phagocytosis. Real-time observation and spatiotemporal manipulation of synaptic caspase-3 in the newly established, mouse-derived culture system demonstrate that increased neuronal activity triggers localized presynaptic caspase-3 activation, facilitating synaptic tagging by complements.

Acute symptomatic seizures, occurring shortly after a central nervous system insult, constitute nearly half of all seizure cases. However, there is a conspicuous absence of clear, comprehensive, and cohesive guidelines for the management of these seizures with antiseizure medications, especially their duration of use. This lack of consensus on the optimal duration of therapy leads to prolonged treatments that may carry adverse consequences.

Musicogenic epilepsy (ME) is characterized by seizures triggered by music. The epileptogenic focus in this rare reflex epilepsy is often in the temporal lobe, although the precise localization is still unclear. A correlation between ME and the presence of GAD65 antibodies indicates a potential immunological pathogenic mechanism.
