Objective
Antiseizure drug (ASD) therapy can significantly impact quality of life for pediatric patients whose epilepsy remains refractory to medications and who experience neuropsychological side effects manifested by impaired cognitive and social development. Contemporary patterns of ASD reduction after pediatric epilepsy surgery across practice settings in the United States are sparsely reported...
Objective
Intracranial electrographic localization of the seizure onset zone (SOZ) can guide surgical approaches for medically refractory epilepsy patients, especially when the presurgical workup is discordant or functional cortical mapping is required. Minimally invasive stereotactic placement of depth electrodes, stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG), has garnered increasing use, but limited data...
Background
Essential tremor remains a very common yet medically refractory condition. A recent phase 3 study demonstrated that magnetic resonance‐guided focused ultrasound thalamotomy significantly improved upper limb tremor. The objectives of this study were to assess this novel therapy's cost‐effectiveness compared with existing procedural options.
Methods
Literature searches of magnetic resonance‐guided...
Cell-mediated suppression of anti-tumor immunity is multifactorial in patients with cancer, and recent studies have focused on several distinct cellular agents that are associated with this phenomenon. This review will focus on the potential role of regulatory T cells (Tregs) and microglia in the suppression of cellular immunity observed in patients with glioblastoma. We discuss the ontogeny, basic...
