The science is of course very important &#8211; but we find this new concept also lays the groundwork for a new community of families, across genetic or other causes, sharing common experiences in optimizing the care of their similarly challenged children.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;The new concept of developmental and epileptic encephalopathy is based on the understanding that many genetic epilepsies are associated with developmental impairment as a direct consequence of the genetic mutation, in addition to the effect of the frequent epileptic activity on brain development. As an example, in infants with KCNQ2 or STXBP1 encephalopathy, seizures may be controlled early after onset or cease spontaneously after a few years, but the developmental consequences tend to remain profound. The term &#8220;developmental and epileptic encephalopathy&#8221; expresses the concept that the genetic defect may be responsible for both the epilepsy and adverse development which is crucial to understanding the disease process for both families and clinicians.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&#8211; Neonatal Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathies<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/abs\/pii\/S1071909119300774\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LES HELE AVISEN OM SCIENCE DIRECT<\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Epileptic encephalopathies represent a group of devastating epileptic disorders that appear early in life. They are characterized by pharmacoresistant generalized or focal seizures, persistent severe EEG abnormalities, and cognitive dysfunction or decline. The ictal and interictal epileptic discharges are age-specific and either are the main cause or contribute to cognitive deterioration in the idiopathic or symptomatic group, respectively. Despite choosing the most appropriate antiepileptic drugs for the seizure type and syndrome, the results are often disappointing, and polytherapy and\/or alternative therapy becomes unavoidable; in those cases, consideration should be given to the quality of life of the child and carers.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&#8211; Epileptic Encephalopathies in Infants and Children<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.intechopen.com\/books\/epilepsy-advances-in-diagnosis-and-therapy\/epileptic-encephalopathies-in-infants-and-children\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LES HELE KAPITTELET OM INTECHOPEN<\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Epileptic encephalopathy refers to a group of epileptic disorders that epileptic activities per se cause adverse impacts to the patient&#8217;s development (1). Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE) is a recently introduced concept with the advances in genetic diagnosis, as genetic etiologies can cause developmental delay irrespective of epileptic activities (2). The causes of DEE can be various including structural and metabolic etiologies. Moreover, owing to advances in genetic testing technologies, such as next-generation sequencing (NGS), research has revealed that diverse genetic mutations, especially de novo monogenic mutations, constitute a significant portion of the etiologies of DEE (3). The discovery of causative genes for DEE has amplified the efforts to improve our understanding of the pathophysiology of each genetic mutation, with the ultimate objective of precision medicine.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&#8211; Frontiers in Neurology<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.frontiersin.org\/articles\/10.3389\/fneur.2018.00530\/full#h2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LES FORSKNINGSARTIKKELEN AV YUPIN WANG<\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;The term epileptic encephalopathy describes a heterogeneous group of epilepsy syndromes associated with severe cognitive and behavioral disturbances.
