Electrophysiological Signatures of Alpha Coma.
J Clin Neurophysiol
January 2025
Department of Intensive Care, Neuro-Intensive Care Unit, University Hospital of Geneva, Geneva, Switzerland.
Purpose: Recent research on quantitative EEG in coma has proposed several metrics correlating with consciousness level. However, the heterogeneous nature of coma can challenge the generalizability of these measures. This study investigates alpha-coma, an electroclinical pattern characterized by a widespread, nonreactive alpha rhythm often linked to poor outcomes.

Background: Older adults with epilepsy represent the largest and fastest-growing segment of individuals with epilepsy and harbor risk factors for pathological aging, including cerebrovascular risk factors (CVRFs) and Alzheimer's disease (AD)-related pathology. In fact, several community-based studies have reported up to a 3-fold increased risk for dementia including AD among individuals with epilepsy. Despite this, identification of risk factors for AD and related dementias (ADRD) remains largely unexplored in epilepsy, which has critical implications for patient care and dementia risk stratification.

: Ongoing challenges in epilepsy therapy warrant research on alternative treatments that offer improved efficacy and reduced side effects. Designed to enhance mitochondrial targeting and increase bioavailability, mitocurcumin (MitoCur) was evaluated for the first time as an antiepileptic agent, with curcumin (Cur) and sodium valproate (VPA), a standard antiepileptic drug, included for comparison. This study investigated the effects on seizure onset, severity, and progression in a zebrafish model of pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced seizures and measured the concentrations of the compounds in brain tissue.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the anticonvulsant efficacy of carbamazepine (CBZ) following acute and chronic administration across four treatment protocols in a murine model of maximal electroshock-induced seizures. A single dose of the drug was utilized as a control. The neurotoxic effects were evaluated in the chimney test and the passive avoidance task.

December 2024
Department of Neonatology, Emergency County Hospital Bihor, 410167 Oradea, Romania.
Background And Objective: The effects of neonatal hypoglycemia on the developing brain are well known, resulting in poor neurological outcomes. We aimed to perform an updated meta-analysis on neonatal hypoglycemia, the severity of hypoglycemia, and the associated neurodevelopmental outcomes from infancy to adulthood.
Methods: A systematic literature search was conducted from inception until March 2024, using the PubMed, CINAHL, Embase, and the CENTRAL databases.
