- W4384404838 abstract "Epilepsy with eyelid myoclonia(EEM) or Jeavons syndrome is considered a genetic generalized epilepsy with a typical age of onset in childhood. Many types of seizures can be observed, including eyelid myoclonia, absence, generalized tonic-clonic, and myoclonic seizures. Seizures tend to be difficult to control requiring polypharmacy treatment or become drug-resistant. Dietary therapy, particularly with Modified Atkins Diet (MAD), as a treatment of seizures in this syndrome has rarely been studied. We report efficacy and tolerability of MAD in children with epilepsy with eyelid myoclonia.We reviewed medical records of children with EEM treated at the University of Chicago Ketogenic Diet program from 2017 to 2022. Patient's demography, seizure characteristics, EEG findings, response to treatment, and adverse effects were reviewed.Six patients with EEM were identified. Average age of seizure onset was 6 (2-11) years and an average age when the MAD started was 10.7 (6-15) years. All patients were started on MAD and completed at least 6 months on the diet at the time of report. An average of 4 (0-9) anti-seizure medications (ASM) had been tried prior to the MAD. All patients achieved ketosis with an average level of serum beta-hydroxybutyrate of 1.9 (1.03-3.61) mmol/L. At the 6-month follow-up visit, all patients (100%) experienced a greater than 50% seizure reduction, 3/6 patients (50%) had more than 90% seizure reduction, 1/6 patients (17%) became seizure-free. All seizure types demonstrated a greater than 80% reduction in frequency.Absence and myoclonic seizures showed the greatest reduction with 100% seizure reduction. Eyelid myoclonia and generalized tonic-clonic seizures showed more than 80% seizure reduction.Moreover, all patients reported improvement in alertness, mood, and concentration. Initial weight loss and mild gastrointestinal disturbances were reported in 2/6 patients (33%) and corrected with dietary adjustment.The Modified Atkins Diet has shown to be effective and welltolerated for children with EEM in our study. Cognitive improvement has also been subjectively reported in all patients. Adverse effects are tolerable and correctable. The MAD, therefore, may be considered as a treatment option for patients with epilepsy with eyelid myoclonia." @default.
