TL;DR: This work investigated whether medically indicated EEGs performed in acutely ill patients under investigation (PUIs) for COVID‐19 report epileptiform abnormalities and whether these are more prevalent in CO VID‐19 positive than negative patients.

TL;DR: In this review, interactions between epilepsy and some common medical conditions are examined, including a discussion of polycystic ovary syndrome, which is increased in women with epilepsy.

TL;DR: The incidence of altered mentation or stroke on admission predicts a modest but significantly higher risk of in-hospital mortality independent of disease severity, while other biomarker factors also predict mortality.

TL;DR: This work aimed to determine patient‐perceived seizure control during the surge, specific variables associated with worsened seizures, the prevalence of specific barriers to care, and patient-perceived efficacy of epilepsy care delivered via telephone and live video visits during the pandemic.

TL;DR: This study suggests that different seizure types have specific patterns in the Persyst QEEG spectrograms that can be identified in the EEG, which can significantly increase the sensitivity for seizure identification.
