  • Acetazolamide in drug-resistant epilepsy: a systematic review with meta-analysis. [Journal Article]

  • CONCLUSIONS: ACZ retains a measurable but selective antiseizure signal in DRE. However, limitations in decades-old reporting, considerable between-study heterogeneity, limited controlled clinical evidence, and modest sample sizes in phenotype-specific cohorts require researchers to interpret the evidence with caution. Nevertheless, ACZ's observed clinical activity, low cost, and distinct mechanism of action make it a promising candidate for prospective studies to identify responsive epilepsy types, assess the durability of benefit, and redefine its place in modern epilepsy care.
  • Epilepsy as a marker of cognitive decline in cerebral amyloid angiopathy: Evidence from a large multi-institutional cohort. [Journal Article]
    Seizure. 2026 Oct 05; 143:92-98. [Online ahead of print]Khand Y, Vallamchetla SK, … Freund BS
  • CONCLUSIONS: Epilepsy in patients with CAA was associated with higher risk of cognitive decline. There was no difference in all-cause mortality, but the confidence interval does not exclude a clinically meaningful effect in either direction. These findings highlight patients with epilepsy as a subgroup of CAA cases with increased risk for cognitive decline. Prospective studies with validated cognitive assessments are needed to confirm this association.
  • A qualitative study of the barriers and enablers to antiseizure medication adherence in children with epilepsy. [Journal Article]
    Seizure. 2026 Sep 28; 143:41-50. [Online ahead of print]Kyeremaa EAA, Stewart A, … Wright DS
  • CONCLUSIONS: Our findings highlight the potential determinants to antiseizure medication adherence in children with epilepsy and their carers/parents. Factors influencing adherence included child, parent and system level influences. We recommend that Healthcare professionals (HCPs) should proactively identify and address formulation-related challenges to support adherence and prioritise clear communication about treatment expectations.
