Can #GLP1 agonist prevent #seizure and #epilepsy ? Our meta‐analysis shows that they have anti-epileptogenic potential in #older adults.
Brilliant effort by @Udeept_Sindhu: a ⭐️ applying #NeuroMatch #neurotwitter
Excited to share our latest work: a meta-analysis of 27 clinical trials (nearly 200,000 patients) revealing that newer glucose-lowering drugs (GLDs), especially GLP-1 receptor agonists, reduce the risk of late-onset seizures and epilepsy by 24% compared to placebo.

Great work by my colleagues @VineetPuniaMD @CarolynTsaiMD1!
How does frailty interact with #epilepsy in #older adults? What is its impact on the management of #seizure in the #elderly with epilepsy?
For answers, check our latest 📝on #frailty and its implication for people with epilepsy

From Sept 11-15, @CleClinicMD is hosting a symposium event on #epilepsy surgery and sEEG🧠🧪🩻!
We caught up with @imadmnajm, who gave a brief overview of the meeting, as well as some of the advances seen since the last meeting in 2019.

Why do full callosotomy if posterior half only callosotomy would impact epileptic falls? What’s the rationale? Dr. Paglioli will try to convince you to try this. An important topic in #epilepsySurgery @HiddenBrain @AmEpilepsySoc
Happy to be apart of this great team!
Non-US residents can attend virtual @ClevelandClinic #EpilepsySummit for FREE!

How important are rescue medications in the care of #epilepsy patients? Which patients qualify, and what's available to prescribe?
Get those answers and more with the latest NeuroBytes video: bit.ly/3UFnHkg

Our model of the process related to classifying IEDs on EEG has 2 parameters: noise/uncertainty level (reader's skill in recognizing IEDs) & threshold (reader's personal preference as an over- or under-caller). @EpiDisorders

This novel educational program - founded upon technology-enhanced learning & retrieval practice - can be used to teach trainees how to identify interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) on #EEG.

Thanks Kara! Everyone that takes care of epilepsy patients should feel comfortable prescribing rescue medications #NeuroBytes #MedEd #NeuroTwitter @AANmember @yaleneuropd @DrHirschEEG
A very helpful summary on the use of rescue medications in #epilepsy - in less than 5 minutes! #NeuroBytes @cbtraner @AANmember #MedEd #NeuroTwitter
