🚨 New Research Alert: Dravet Syndrome & Neurodegeneration 🚨 A groundbreaking study suggests that Dravet syndrome (DS) in adults may have neurodegenerative features, with declining adaptive skills, gait issues, and parkinsonian symptoms linked to age and long-term sodium

Check out our collaborative work and experience with Radiofrequency Thermocoagulation for focal epilepsy. SEEG-guided RFTC is safe and a beneficial diagnostic approach prior to further neurosurgical interventions in patients with DRE.#MayoClinic

Happy to share our most recent publication with Dr. Fine @MayoClinic @MayoNeuroFellow on Management of DEEs. https://t.co/rwdMG3fnlD

Congratulations to Dr. Jones on his recent publication in Neurology, “Ideomotor Apraxia and “Milky Way” sign in Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy.” https://t.co/0dKJFi07Zt #ScholarlySunday #NeurologyFellowships #MayoNeurology

Yesterday, we enjoyed a “Lasagna from Scratch” cooking class led by the power couple, @MayoNeuroFellow @felipejonesMD (Neuromuscular) and @alejavasquezMD (Epilepsy). It was an incredible experience, filled with fun moments, and the final dish was absolutely spectacular! 😍

Check out the new "publications" tab👇 on https://t.co/QIQP7bfgUr! We hope this is will be helpful for trainees and #EEG & #epilepsy lovers across the 🌍. 🙂🧠⚡️💡 https://t.co/uomdZAmvYB

AIFM1 variants should be considered in patients with hereditary cerebellar ataxia and auditory neuropathy. We highlight a novel AIFM1 variant and its phenotypic intrafamilial variability. Thanks Dr.Selcen and #mayoclinic colleagues involved in these cases! https://t.co/yLSbrSZ9a1

Key point: A phase 3, open-label extension trial of adjunctive LCM was carried out in patients (aged ≥4 years) with IGE. https://t.co/F5OtyVHXNd #epilepsy #antiseizuremedication #idiopathic #longtermretention #phase3trial #lacosamide @IlaeWeb @epilepsiajourn @WileyNeuro

@EpilepsyBehavi1 for Early Careers A Special Supplement with a noble purpose and great reviews for young epileptologists In this article, we demystify the ketogenic diet therapy with a simple and concise article. @yesILAE #ketogenicdiet https://t.co/VIfPrDRR35

📚Do not miss to upload our recent scientific publication on: "The expanding field of genetic developmental and epileptic encephalopathies" - https://t.co/Pl2floDyok @EU_Health @EU_HaDEA #ScientificPublications

Key point: "CACNA1E variant p.(Gly352Arg) is associated with early-onset DEE, dystonia/dyskinesia and contractures." @EpiDisorders: https://t.co/jWx81Up9sS

Happy to share this complex case of leukoencephalopathy with calcifications and cysts (LCC) that I saw with the amazing @JennOligoMyelin. It is important to recognize this radiographic pattern to guide genetic testing and appropriate management. https://t.co/sQ3sPKkv00

Key points: Genetic developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) are characterized by various seizure types, genetic heterogeneity, and cognitive impairment with variable clinical trajectories. https://t.co/BJGdIUaTSk #epilepsy @IlaeWeb @epilepsiajourn @WileyNeuro

This case highlights an approach to lumbosacral plexopathies/radiculoplexus neuropathies. We also discuss the presentation and management of a rare CIDP variant. https://t.co/t05Cu2RbNC @GreenJournal

This case highlights an approach to IgM paraproteinemic neuropathies. Attention to neuropathy phenotype, evaluation of systemic features, and investigation of underlying hematologic disorders are essential steps to reach the correct diagnosis. https://t.co/iah0DYl9w6

Key point: "Antibodies to LGI1, NMDAR, and GAD65 are the most common antibodies found in patients with autoimmune encephalitis and autoimmune-associated seizure disorders." @EpiDisorders https://t.co/Rma5hOWAJV
