Therapeutic drug monitoring of levetiracetam in daily clinical practice: high-performance liquid chromatography versus immunoassay.

European journal of hospital pharmacy : science and practice
OBJECTIVES: Although levetiracetam presents an easy dosing and tolerability, therapeutic drug monitoring may be recommended in certain situations. Measurement of levetiracetam in serum plasma is commonly done by high performance liquid chromatography...

Personalized prediction model for seizure-free epilepsy with levetiracetam therapy: a retrospective data analysis using support vector machine.

British journal of clinical pharmacology
AIMS: To predict the probability of a seizure-free (SF) state in patients with epilepsy (PWEs) after treatment with levetiracetam and to identify the clinical and electroencephalographic (EEG) factors that affect outcomes.

Comparative effectiveness of anti-seizure medications in emulated trials using medical informatics.

Brain : a journal of neurology
Anti-seizure medications (ASMs) are often prescribed using a trial-and-error approach with a similar sequence for many patients. Comparative effectiveness data beyond the first ASM prescription are limited. Artificial intelligence can automatically e...

Region-specific modulation and predictive potential of the oscillatory dynamics in an ex vivo model of ictogenesis in the CA1, CA3 and dentate gyrus.

Neuroscience letters
The hippocampus, including the cornu ammonis (CA) and dentate gyrus (DG) subregions, is a brain area highly susceptible to seizure-like activity (SLA). Most studies conducted in vivo have been performed in a single hippocampal subregion. In our study...

Dosing prediction of valproic acid in pediatric patients with epilepsy: population pharmacokinetic model or machine learning model?

European journal of clinical pharmacology
PURPOSE: This study develops and compares population pharmacokinetics (PopPK) models and machine learning methods, including neural networks, to predict steady-state trough concentrations in pediatric patients and provide improved dosing recommendati...

Network models incorporating chloride dynamics predict optimal strategies for terminating status epilepticus.

Neurobiology of disease
Status epilepticus (SE), seizures lasting beyond five minutes, is a medical emergency commonly treated with benzodiazepines which enhance GABA receptor (GABAR) conductance. Despite widespread use, benzodiazepines fail in over one-third of patients, p...

ML-based Models as a Strategy to Discover Novel Antiepileptic Drugs Targeting Sodium Receptor Channel.

Current topics in medicinal chemistry
BACKGROUND: Epilepsy remains the most common and chronic disorder demanding longterm management. The impact of epilepsy disease is a cause of great concern and has resulted in efforts to develop treatment for epilepsy. It occurs due to an increase in...

Predicting Antiseizure Medication Treatment in Children with Rare Tuberous Sclerosis Complex-Related Epilepsy Using Deep Learning.

AJNR. American journal of neuroradiology
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Tuberous sclerosis complex disease is a rare, multisystem genetic disease, but appropriate drug treatment allows many pediatric patients to have positive outcomes. The purpose of this study was to predict the effectiveness of ...

Towards realizing the vision of precision medicine: AI based prediction of clinical drug response.

Brain : a journal of neurology
Accurate and individualized prediction of response to therapies is central to precision medicine. However, because of the generally complex and multifaceted nature of clinical drug response, realizing this vision is highly challenging, requiring inte...

[Simultaneous determination of twelve antiepileptic drugs in serum by ultra high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry].

Se pu = Chinese journal of chromatography
A sensitive, high-throughput method was established for the simultaneous determination of 12 antiepileptics in serum by ultra high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS). The antiepileptics were gabapentin, lamotrigin...
