In the March open access episode of Chattering With International Cat Care, Yaiza Gómez-Mejías is joined by Dr Mark Lowrie to discuss his recent Clinical Spotlight Review in the Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery on epileptic seizures in cats.Together, they explore how signalment, careful neurological examination, and thorough metabolic screening shape the diagnostic pathway. The conversation highlights common pitfalls - including interpreting postictal changes, differentiating seizures from syncope or paroxysmal dyskinesia, and deciding when advanced imaging is warranted - offering practical guidance to help clinicians approach seizuring cats with clarity and confidence.For further reading material please visit:Epileptic seizures in cats: practical approaches to diagnosisHost:Yaiza Gómez-Mejías, LdaVet MANZCVS (Medicine of Cats), RCVS CertAP (Feline Medicine), iCatCare Veterinary Community Co-ordinatorSpeaker:Mark Lowrie, MA, VetMB, MVM, DipECVN, MRCVS, Director at Movement Referrals and Specialist in Veterinary Neurology

Nayla Chaijale, Medical Strategy Lead for Rare Syndromes at UCB, describes Dravet syndrome, a rare, medication-resistant epileptic encephalopathy that involves seizures and significant co-morbidities like cognitive and developmental delays. Their approved drug FINTEPLA has a unique mechanism of action that modulates pathways in the brain and has demonstrated a significant reduction in the frequency of convulsive seizures in those with this condition. Nayla notes that the good news is that most patients with Dravet syndrome have a mutation in the SCN1A gene, a critical biomarker that enables accurate diagnosis. Nayla explains, "So, Dravet syndrome is a rare condition in epilepsy, and what we call it is neurodevelopmental and epileptic encephalopathy. I'm just going to call it DEEs, to say that it's a rare epileptic syndrome. Even though it's very rare, it's also very burdensome for the patients and their families. So, people living with these conditions start having the symptoms at a very early age, between two and 15 months of life. And it usually appears after a fever or a high temperature. And the symptoms are seizures that usually are long, prolonged seizures. It's not just about the seizures, it's also the other symptoms, such as potential cognitive delays and other developmental delays, problems with sleep, problems with behavior over time." "The good news about Dravet syndrome is that there is a very well-established biomarker. So, there is a genetic test for it, for the gene code that is called SCN1A. And also, in science, we love to have acronyms, but really, it's related to a specific type of receptors or proteins that are in charge of neuronal transmission and communication, like in the neurons. And these are called sodium channel neurotransmitters. And there is a mutation of that gene that is very characteristic, around 90% of these patients will have that mutation of the gene. So, having that biomarker will give a very good indication to the healthcare provider that the person living with the conditions may have Dravet syndrome." #UCB #DravetSyndrome #RareEpilepsy #FINTEPLA #Neuroscience #RareDiseases #EpilepsyAwareness #MedicalInnovation #PatientCare #NeurodevelopmentalDisorders #ClinicalTrials #RareDiseases ucb.com Download the transcript here

Welcome to the NeurologyLive® Mind Moments® podcast. Tune in to hear leaders in neurology sound off on topics that impact your clinical practice.In this episode, "Bexicaserin, the PACIFIC Trial, and Treating Developmental Epileptic Encephalopathies," Johannes Streffer, MD, PhD, discusses phase 1/2 findings from the PACIFIC trial evaluating bexicaserin in developmental epileptic encephalopathies, presented at the American Epilepsy Society 2025 Annual Meeting. Streffer, senior vice president of clinical development at Lundbeck, outlines the scientific and clinical rationale for studying DEEs as a unified population, emphasizing the unmet need and complexity of trial design in this highly vulnerable group. He reviews key efficacy outcomes, including sustained reductions in countable motor seizures and strong patient retention through long-term open-label extension and expanded access follow-up. The discussion also explores safety and tolerability considerations in patients receiving multiple concomitant antiseizure medications, the highly selective mechanism of action of bexicaserin, and how Lundbeck's broader strategy in rare neurological disorders aims to de-risk development early while addressing populations with limited therapeutic options.Looking for more Epilepsy discussion?

Data shows that about 1 in 26 individuals will develop epilepsy at some point in their lifetime, and Kentucky has about 50,000 active cases of epilepsy. Dr. Greg's guest talks about a new program addressing the care of those individuals. Sukriti Kapoor is a senior at Paul Laurence Dunbar High School in Lexington and is the president of the student technology leadership program. She also founded a new program called Seizure Smart to equip not only teachers but students with the tools to handle epileptic-related emergencies.
In this short podcast, I count down 10 routine everyday things that can surprisingly be triggers for epileptic seizures.
Once called pseudoseizures, psychogenic non-epileptic seizures can confuse even seasoned clinicians — until you know the signs. These seizures mimic epilepsy but have entirely different causes, requiring a unique approach to care. In this episode, we explore how to distinguish PNES from epilepsy, the psychological factors that trigger attacks, and steps in the diagnostic process.Learn how you can identify these episodes, provide compassionate care, and educate patients and their families about this misunderstood condition!Topics discussed in this episode:Three PNES patient storiesWhat are psychogenic non-epileptic seizures?PNES versus epilepsy: key differences and signsDiagnosing PNESTreatment and the role of nursesLearn more about psychogenic non-epileptic seizures here:https://www.epilepsy.com/stories/truth-about-psychogenic-nonepileptic-seizuresMentioned in this episode:CONNECT

A heartbroken man is demanding child custody from his girlfriend, who after he helped her recover from her epilepsy, has secretly gone on to date and become pregnant by another man. - PART THREE.
I agree he has helped, but at some points, he stopped caring for our needs, including those of our child, and also didn't want me to work. So, I went looking for a job and got one. That's what brought all our issues, so I moved in to stay with my mother. And during my stay with my mother, I met this guy who offered to help me. So, we secretly dated, and then I realized I was pregnant. Cheating on my boyfriend was never my intention - the accused girlfriend shares her part of the story.
Recent community-based studies suggest that people with chronic epilepsy have three times the risk of sudden cardiac death, compared with the general population. The studies also found that two-thirds of the cases of cardiac arrest in people with epilepsy did not occur directly before, during, or after a seizure. How do seizures affect the heart, both acutely and chronically? Dr. Trudy Pang and Dr. Richard Verrier have introduced the concept of the "epileptic heart" as "a heart and coronary vasculature damaged by chronic epilepsy as a result of repeated surges in catecholamines and hypoxemia, leading to electrical and mechanical dysfunction." Dr. Parthvi Ravat talks with both of them about their work and its relevance to epilepsy treatment.

In this episode we are joined by Lucy Baena - a Mother, Writer & Birthkeeper. Throughout her life Lucy has been given an array of diagnosis the first at age 7 when she was diagnosed as Dyslexic. At 15 she discovered she was Epileptic and a month after her 38th birthday she received her Autistic diagnosis. Lucy has struggled with a variety of complex health (& many mis) diagnosis over her life and learning that she is Autistic has had a profound impact on her understanding of her health and wellbeing. Since becoming a Mother 8 years ago Lucy has dedicated much of her time to being a Doula and Birthkeeping in her local community. Lucy was told that she would never have children so birthing at home as an Epileptic disabled mum was the achievement of Lucys life and has shown her she is made of pure fire. Lucy was disabled before she knew she was Autistic so her post diagnosis experiences are different to those who learn they are Autistic but did not already consider themselves disabled. Lucy believes in the power of wild places to heal and the sacredness of the natural world, especially the Ocean, and she now knows her Autistic brain sees things in the natural world that neurotypical people miss and she is full of awe daily.
