ALT "Even in structural etiologies, ASySs bear a relatively low risk of later unprovoked seizures. There is still no evidence favoring prolonged ASM treatments. These findings may help preventing ASM overtreatment and guide counseling on driving eligibility."

ALT "Four of the six frontotemporal regions showing the largest morphometric alterations in MDD also exhibit reduced cortical thickness in mTLE patients with past or future depression. This shared frontotemporal thinning pattern supports depression in mTLE as an expression of network pathology common to MDD, while residual regional differences may help explain the distinct phenotypic presentations of depression in these neuropsychiatric disorders. In PostD patients, these abnormalities were already present pre-operatively, consistent with a pre-existing vulnerability rather than a purely psychosocial reaction to surgery or epilepsy per se."
