In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: As Iran's regime tightens its information blackout, rare eyewitness accounts are beginning to slip through, offering a disturbing look at how Tehran is carrying out its crackdown— from targeted maiming to raids on hospitals and clinics, revealing tactics that go far beyond disputed body counts. The war on the high seas widens, with new reporting that the United States is seeking court warrants to seize dozens of additional Venezuela-linked oil tankers, signaling a major escalation in maritime pressure. The United States freezes all visa processing for seventy-five countries, including Iran, Russia, and Somalia, in a sweeping move that signals a tougher stance on immigration and national security. And in today's Back of the Brief, a new development in the Havana Syndrome mystery, as the U.S. government quietly acquires a device believed to be linked to the unexplained injuries reported by American officials.

Paediatric seizures are common, time-critical events and they're something most of us will deal with, whether that's pre-hospital, in the emergency department, or on the ward. They make up around 1–2% of ED attendances, and about 1 in 20 children will have a seizure at some point. Most seizures self-terminate, but the longer they go on the harder they are to stop, and the higher the risk of harm. In paediatric seizures, time really matters. In this episode we take a step-by-step look at how to assess and manage a child who's seizing. We start with the fundamentals; how seizures are defined and classified, what status epilepticus actually means in practice, and why recognising it early makes such a difference. We then dig into the physiology behind seizures, exploring why early benzodiazepines work well and why delayed treatment often doesn't. Understanding what's happening at a receptor level helps make sense of when to escalate treatment and why different drugs work at different stages of a prolonged seizure. Pharmacology is a big part of this episode. We talk through first- and second-line anti-seizure medications, routes of administration, and how effective they really are. We cover the EcLiPSE and ConSEPT trials comparing levetiracetam and phenytoin, and look at newer evidence from the Ket-Mid study and what that might mean for managing refractory status and thinking about RSI. We also work through the approach to cases, pre-hospital management and in-hospital care aligned with UK and European recommendations. There's a clear focus on febrile seizures too, separating simple from complex presentations and helping you decide who needs investigating, admitting, or reassuring and discharging. As ever, the aim is to turn guidelines and evidence into something usable on the shop floor. Paediatric seizures are stressful, but with a structured approach, early treatment, and good airway management, they're absolutely manageable and we can make a real difference on outcomes. Once again we'd love to hear any thoughts or feedback either on the website or via X @TheResusRoom! Simon, Rob & James

In this episode, Dr. Tony Ebel addresses a question that deeply concerns seizure parents: why seizures often increase during developmental leaps. Drawing from both clinical experience and his personal journey as a father, he explains how these temporary upticks can be part of neurological growth and healing, not necessarily regression. Dr. Tony breaks down the neuroscience behind neuroplasticity, increased metabolic demand, and why the nervous system can look more unstable before reorganizing more effectively. He also shares clear guidance on how to support your child during these phases, how to tell the difference between healing progress and true setbacks, and when additional medical support is needed.-----Links & ResourcesListen to the deep dive seizures episode here.Get access to our free guide to improve your child's sleep here.-----Key Topics Covered:3:00 Dr. Tony's personal story and his son's seizure journey6:00 Reframing the challenge and when an uptick may signal healing11:00 The neuroscience of neuroplasticity and temporary instability14:00 Why vulnerable nervous systems struggle more during developmental leaps17:00 Three key signs to distinguish healing progression from true regression22:00 How parents can support their child through regulation, sleep, and metabolic needs26:00 Metabolic demand and the immune system connection30:00 The vagus nerve's role in neurological stability32:00 Understanding regression as part of progression in healing36:00 Practical recap and warning signs that require medical review40:00 Closing encouragement and how to submit future questions-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.

In a special episode of TSC Now, Dan interviews Bridgett Langstaff, mom to Jude, a 17-year-old living with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) and epilepsy. Bridgett shares Jude’s diagnosis story and how they ultimately made their way to Mass General Hospital and Dr. Thiele. She also talks about Jude’s ongoing struggle with seizures, from infantile spasms as a baby, to partial seizures, to tonic clonic seizures as he started going through puberty, and she details their journey to achieve seizure control through multiple medications, the ketogenic diet, and surgery. Finally, she shares what it’s like as a parent to witness a prolonged seizure (one lasting longer than 3 minutes) and how and when they decide to administer rescue medication to stop a seizure. This podcast was sponsored by UCB Biopharma, in an effort to raise awareness of prolonged seizures. UCB was not involved in the content development for this podcast. UCB is currently running the STARS study, a clinical trial researching an investigational medication for people who experience prolonged epileptic seizures (i.e. lasting more than 3 minutes) who are over the age of 12. The STARS Study is testing an inhaler containing an investigational drug that has been designed to potentially stop a prolonged seizure once it has begun.

This is an audio version of a white broad series covering inhibition/thalamic reticular nucleus. See the video to follow along.This episode provides a detailed exploration of the thalamic reticular nucleus (TRN), the inhibitory "shell" surrounding the thalamus that acts as a sensory gate in the brain. Drawing on prior episodes, it explains how abnormalities in TRN development—linked to factors like Sonic Hedgehog signaling knockouts, reduced parvalbumin interneurons, and genes such as CNTNAP2—contribute to the excitation-inhibition imbalance central to autism. The TRN regulates sensory input access (visual, auditory, somatosensory), attention modulation, sleep-wake cycles, and overload protection; in autism, its dysfunction leads to sensory overload, hyperactivity, repetitive behaviors, and social challenges, while offering strengths like accelerated learning, intense focus, and enhanced visual thinking due to heightened inner-directed processing.83: Thalamic Reticular Nucleus (TRN), Sensory Gating & Autism https://youtu.be/cjwbog7Rk4c?si=R3Nq3Hs5A0M_7Vts 82: Sonic Hedgehog & Inhibitory Neurons in Autism https://youtu.be/Oee4L7Vsj4E?si=rG2T8R9AIYAnDBw7 76: Parvalbumin Interneurons & the Autistic Phenotype https://youtu.be/PBHVssvoQkM?si=saFvjVx9Bjq610pk Also see the Visual Thinking episodes, but White Broad Series coming to cover those in more detail.Daylight Computer Company, use "autism" for $50 off at https://buy.daylightcomputer.com/autismChroma Light Devices, use "autism" for 10% discount at https://getchroma.co/?ref=autismFig Tree Christian Golf Apparel & Accessories, use "autism" for 10% discount at https://figtreegolf.com/?ref=autismCognity AI for Autistic Social Skills, use "autism" for 10% discount at https://thecognity.com00:00 Introduction, Episode Recap, TRN Overview02:45 TRN Anatomy Drawing, Thalamus Structure and Shell05:18 Sonic Hedgehog Role, Knockout Models in Development10:48 Cell Types in TRN, Parvalbumin vs Somatostatin Functions15:19 TRN Sectors, Sensory Inputs (Visual/Auditory/Somatosensory) Access20:37 Cortical Connections, Layer 6 Feedback and Crosstalk25:04 Mini-Columns Recap, Thalamus to Layer 4 Processing29:56 Prefrontal Cortex Mapping, Adaptive Responses Role34:22 TRN Functions: Attention Modulation, Sleep-Wake Regulation36:22 CNTNAP2 Discussion, Knockout Phenotypes (Hyperactivity, Seizures)38:45 Strengths/Weaknesses: Accelerated Learning, Visual Thinking Benefits42:18 Overload Protection, Hyperactivity, Social/Repetitive Challenges46:30 Conclusion, Autism as "Self," Inner-Directed ProcessingX: https://x.com/rps47586YT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGxEzLKXkjppo3nqmpXpzuAemail: info.fromthespectrum@gmail.com

Drs. Mahinda Yogarajah, Benjamin Tolchin, and Jon Stone discuss recommendations for clinicians, patients, and other stakeholders on the management of functional seizures.  Show citation: Tolchin B, Goldstein LH, Reuber M, et al. Management of Functional Seizures Practice Guideline Executive Summary: Report of the AAN Guidelines Subcommittee. Neurology. 2026;106(1):e214466. doi:10.1212/WNL.0000000000214466  Show transcript:  Dr. Mahinda Yogarajah: Welcome to this edition of Neurology Minute. I'm your host for this. My name's Mahinda Yogarajah. I've just finished interviewing Dr. Ben Tolchin and Jon Stone for this week's Neurology® Podcast. For today's Neurology Minute, I'm hoping Ben can tell us the main points of the podcast and the paper discussed in that podcast. Dr. Ben Tolchin: We discussed the AAN guideline on the Management of Functional Seizures. This is the first American Academy of Neurology evidence-based guideline on functional neurologic disorder. It includes a systematic review of the randomized controlled trials relating to the treatment of this disorder, which found that psychological interventions are possibly effective in improving the chance of achieving freedom from functional seizures, in reducing the frequency of functional seizures, in improving quality of life, and in improving anxiety. In addition to the systematic review, there are clinical recommendations based on the systematic review and on related evidence. The recommendations deal with all stages of the diagnosis, management, and treatment of functional seizures and are particularly relevant to neurologists caring for patients with functional seizures. In addition, there are recommendations for future research relating to the diagnosis and management of functional seizures. Dr. Mahinda Yogarajah: Thank you, Ben. For more information, I'd recommend go to the main podcast or go and have a read of the article that's been published in Neurology® on the Management of Functional Seizures Practice Guidelines.

Dr. Mahinda Yogarajah talks with Drs. Benjamin Tolchin and Jon Stone about recommendations for clinicians, patients, and other stakeholders on the management of functional seizures.  Read the related article in Neurology®. Disclosures can be found at Neurology.org.

Mentor Sessions Ep. 044: Bitcoin Freedom, Government Adoption Risks & IMF Criticism | My First Bitcoin Founder John DennehyWhat if government Bitcoin adoption isn't the victory everyone celebrates... but the greatest threat to true Bitcoin freedom? In this eye-opening interview on BTC Sessions, John Dennehy — founder of My First Bitcoin — drops the uncomfortable realities: governments and corporations could co-opt Bitcoin, turning it into just another controlled asset while stripping away self-custody, sovereignty, and individual power. He exposes the IMF's exploitative grip on nations, warns that politicians are "fair-weather friends" to Bitcoin, and shares why grassroots education and real-world usage are the only path to genuine liberation. From his own arrests and jail-cell epiphany ("They can't take this from me") to brutal lessons from El Salvador's experiment, John reveals why Bitcoin isn't just "number go up" — it's the tool to build a freer world, starting with self-custody and rejecting centralized control. If you're serious about Bitcoin as freedom money, this is the conversation you can't afford to miss.Key topics: Bitcoin freedom, government Bitcoin adoption, self-custody, Bitcoin education, IMF criticism, My First Bitcoin.Support My First BitcoinWebsite: https://myfirstbitcoin.orgX: @MyFirstBitcoin_Chapters:00:00 Teaser & Intro00:01:45 Government Adoption: Threat or Victory?00:03:09 Education + Usage for True Freedom00:06:46 Money = Power: Bitcoin's Unique Freedom00:08:01 Predictability & Long-Term Thinking00:11:08 Self-Custody vs Treasury Companies00:13:14 Global Adoption & Hurdles00:17:09 Politicians as Fair-Weather Friends00:22:27 The Cliff Analogy & Urgency00:25:08 Personal Actions & Leading by Example00:26:57 Regions Primed for Bitcoin00:30:36 John's Seizures & Bitcoin Journey00:36:48 IMF Exposed: Sovereignty Killer00:44:54 Alternatives & Preventative Solutions00:51:13 El Salvador Lessons00:58:25 Governments: Get Out of the Way01:01:13 Bitcoin Transforms Mindsets01:04:27 Building New Models01:10:59 Jail Liberation & Bitcoin Power01:16:52 Help My First Bitcoin & Get Involved About John Dennehy:X: https://x.com/jdennehy_writesPrevious Episode:Exposing the Global Elite's Bitcoin Psyop | Dr. Jack Kruse & Simon Dixon: https://youtu.be/4Rzv9meq3Yg

In this important Ask Cindy Q and A, Ed Frawley addresses a concerned owner's question about whether to continue using an e-collar on their 7-year-old dog who recently started having seizures, with the last one occurring two months ago and no current medication. Cindy explains that she cannot provide a definitive answer without understanding the underlying cause of the seizures—whether they're linked to a medical condition, reaction to flea, tick, or heartworm medication, epilepsy, or another outside substance. She offers her perspective that a quality e-collar functions like a TENS unit used by chiropractors, so she doesn't expect it to cause or aggravate seizure conditions, but emphasizes that she is not a healthcare professional or veterinarian. | Links mentioned: Seresto Pet Collar Review - https://www.epa.gov/pets/seresto-pet-collar-review

Send comments and feedbackIs there a fast, simple way to measure whether someone with epilepsy is doing "better" or "worse" compared with a past clinic visit? Not really. Seizure count is often considered a standard, but multiple small seizures may have less impact on someone's life than a single generalized tonic-clonic seizure. In this episode, we talk with authors of a study on an outcome measure that factors the impact of seizures as well as the impact of treatments.The study: Validation of the seizure-related impact assessment scale  Sharp Waves episodes are meant for informational purposes only, and not as clinical or medical advice.Let us know how we're doing: podcast@ilae.org.The International League Against Epilepsy is the world's preeminent association of health professionals and scientists, working toward a world where no person's life is limited by epilepsy.

The U.S. government's MASSIVE Bitcoin seizures just shocked the market — and Trump's real crypto plan may finally be revealed!

For Tim Cummings, growing up with a brother who lived with epilepsy often felt like there was a mysterious presence in their shared childhood room. Seizures would often affect his brother Matthew in the middle of the night, a terrifying experience for young Tim to witness. It felt like there was a doorway or a portal opening, connecting Matthew to an unseen realm. This feeling would haunt Tim well into adulthood, particularly after the tragic loss of his brother when Tim was 24. After 40 years as a professional actor, Tim knew he had his own stories to tell. He went back to school, getting his masters in writing, and recently released a new novel inspired by his childhood experiences with Matthew. In The Lightening People Play, fourteen-year-old Kirby writes and produces a play to raise money for a seizure-alert dog for his younger brother Baxter. This production opens a portal through which mysterious figures and symbols appear. This story allows Tim to reckon with his past, immortalizing his brother while allowing for a more uplifting end to his brother's story. In this episode of the Major Pain podcast, Tim recounts the personal history that inspired his new novel, reflecting on how his brother's epilepsy impacted their lives. We discuss the creation of The Lightening People Play and the ways in which chronic illness can affect not only the lives of those living through health challenges, but the lives of their loved ones.

This podcast is sponsored by YARAL Pharma.  In this episode, we are focusing on the management of hypothyroidism -- a treatable, but not curable condition – and will explore unique challenges for patients with hypothyroidism in long-term care – from tolerability and formulation considerations to consistent dosing and patient needs. Dr. Tamara Ruggles is not affiliated with YARAL Pharma. All views and opinions regarding hypothyroidism are solely her own and are not attributable to YARAL or the Pharmacy Podcast Network. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION for levothyroxine sodium capsules INDICATION AND USAGE Levothyroxine sodium capsules are L-thyroxine (T4) indicated for adults and pediatric patients 6 years and older with: Hypothyroidism - As replacement therapy in primary (thyroidal), secondary (pituitary), and tertiary (hypothalamic) congenital or acquired hypothyroidism Pituitary Thyrotropin (Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone, TSH) Suppression - As an adjunct to surgery and radioiodine therapy in the management of thyrotropin-dependent well differentiated thyroid cancer Limitations of Use: Levothyroxine sodium capsules are not indicated for suppression of benign thyroid nodules and nontoxic diffuse goiter in iodine-sufficient patients as there are no clinical benefits and overtreatment with Levothyroxine sodium capsules may induce hyperthyroidism. Levothyroxine sodium capsules are not indicated for treatment of transient hypothyroidism during the recovery phase of subacute thyroiditis WARNING: NOT FOR THE TREATMENT OF OBESITY OR FOR WEIGHT LOSS Thyroid hormones, including levothyroxine sodium capsules, either alone or with other therapeutic agents, should not be used for the treatment of obesity or for weight loss. In euthyroid patients, doses within the range of daily hormonal requirements are ineffective for weight reduction. Larger doses may produce serious or even life-threatening manifestations of toxicity, particularly when given in association with sympathomimetic amines such as those used for their anorectic effects. Contraindications Uncorrected adrenal insufficiency Warnings and Precautions Cardiac adverse reactions in the elderly and in patients with underlying cardiovascular disease: Initiate Levothyroxine sodium capsules at less than the full replacement dose because of the increased risk of cardiac adverse reactions, including atrial fibrillation Myxedema coma: Do not use oral thyroid hormone drug products to treat myxedema coma Acute adrenal crisis in patients with concomitant adrenal insufficiency: Treat with replacement glucocorticoids prior to initiation of levothyroxine sodium capsules treatment Prevention of hyperthyroidism or incomplete treatment of hypothyroidism: Proper dose titration and careful monitoring is critical to prevent the persistence of hypothyroidism or the development of hyperthyroidism Worsening of diabetic control: Therapy in patients with diabetes mellitus may worsen glycemic control and result in increased antidiabetic agent or insulin requirements. Carefully monitor glycemic control after starting, changing, or discontinuing thyroid hormone therapy Decreased bone mineral density associated with thyroid hormone over-replacement: Over-replacement can increase bone reabsorption and decrease bone mineral density. Give the lowest effective dose Adverse Reactions Common adverse reactions with levothyroxine therapy are primarily those of hyperthyroidism due to therapeutic overdosage. They include the following: General: fatigue, increased appetite, weight loss, heat intolerance, fever, excessive sweating Central Nervous System: headache, hyperactivity, nervousness, anxiety, irritability, emotional ability, insomnia Musculoskeletal: tremors, muscle weakness Cardiovascular: palpitations, tachycardia, arrythmias, increased pulse and blood pressure, heart failure, angina, myocardial infarction, cardiac arrest Respiratory: dyspnea Gastrointestinal (GI): diarrhea, vomiting, abdominal cramps, elevations in liver function tests Dermatologic: hair loss, flushing Endocrine: decreased bone mineral density Reproductive: menstrual irregularities, impaired fertility Adverse Reactions in Children Pseudotumor cerebri and slipped capital femoral epiphysis have been reported in children receiving levothyroxine therapy. Overtreatment may result in craniosynostosis in infants and premature closure of the epiphyses in children with resultant compromised adult height. Seizures have been reported rarely with the institution of levothyroxine therapy. Hypersensitivity Reactions Hypersensitivity reactions to inactive ingredients (in this product or other levothyroxine products) have occurred in patients treated with thyroid hormone products. These include urticaria, pruritis, skin rash, flushing, angioedema, various GI symptoms (abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea), fever, arthralgia, serum sickness and wheezing. Hypersensitivity to levothyroxine itself is not known to occur. Drug Interactions: Many drugs and some foods can exert effects on thyroid hormone pharmacokinetics (e.g., absorption, synthesis, secretion, catabolism, protein binding, and target tissue response) and may alter the therapeutic response to Levothyroxine sodium capsules. Administer at least 4 hours before or after drugs that are known to interfere with absorption. See full prescribing information for drugs that affect thyroid hormone pharmacokinetics and metabolism. To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Yaral Pharma Inc. at 1-866-218-9009, or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch. For Full Prescribing Information, including Boxed Warning, go to www.yaralpharma.com/levothyroxine-pi.

Developmental and epileptic encephalopathies are a group of rare disorders that are characterized by frequent seizures that often don't respond to existing medications. These are complex conditions that involve progressive cognitive and behavioral manifestations that can pose significant burdens on patients and their families. In both clinical practice and within the biopharmaceutical industry, there has been a tendency to focus on seizure control, while often overlooking the non-seizure burdens of developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. We spoke to Amelie Lothe, global medical community head for rare epilepsies at UCB, about the need to view these developmental and epileptic encephalopathies as complex neurodevelopmental conditions, the need to go beyond seizure frequency when it comes to clinical trial outcome measures, and what drug developers can do to improve their research focus to include broader patient and caregiver experiences.

Key Points Seadon experienced his first Grand mal seizure at age three, lasting over 20 minutes, with medical staff initially believing he would suffer brain damage from the prolonged episode.Medical professionals prescribed benzodiazepines which reduced seizure frequency and severity but required continuous dose increases as Seadon continued having seizures for four years.By age seven, Seadon was taking the maximum benzodiazepine dose equivalent to an 18-19 year old but still experiencing seizures, prompting consultation with alternative neurologists.Memory impairment was identified as a significant side effect of the benzodiazepine medication, causing Seadon to forget basic daily tasks and potentially creating permanent cognitive damage.Research into natural alternatives consistently pointed to cannabis as the only viable option, though specific dosing and cultivation information was extremely limited at the time.Pharmaceutical shortage crisis forced an immediate decision when Seadon's medication became unavailable, with Health Canada offering three replacement drugs including ones with suicide risk and irreversible liver damage.Cannabis treatment began with a one-to-one CBD-THC tincture obtained from a veteran's prescription, starting with low doses while simultaneously weaning off benzodiazepines.Seadon achieved complete seizure freedom for 11 years using a customized cannabis regimen of 20-to-1 CBD-THC ratio during daytime and 1-to-1 ratio at nighttime.Memory function significantly improved after transitioning from pharmaceuticals to cannabis, contradicting common misconceptions about cannabis effects on developing brains.Legal prescription acquisition took over 18 months due to reluctance from healthcare providers to treat pediatric patients, eventually obtained through a questionable cannabis clinic charging $2,000 annually.Medical establishment resistance continued even after successful treatment, with neurologists refusing prescription renewals despite 100% seizure control and excluding Seadon from cannabis epilepsy studies.Family doctor refused to write cannabis prescriptions despite supporting the treatment results, ultimately involving legal counsel when challenged about patient rights violations.EduCanNation nonprofit was founded in 2020 to standardize cannabis education and provide proper guidance to patients, addressing the lack of reliable information and support systems.Organization connects certified cannabis educators who are primarily former patients, aiming to share evidence-based knowledge and prevent others from experiencing similar healthcare navigation challenges.
