The meta-analysis by Veroniki et al (2017a) does not support an increased risk of fetal loss, however, data from some studies in pregnancy registries (Artama et al 2013, Trivedi et al 2018) are suggestive of a trend towards an increased risk of fetal loss in association with oxcarbazepine exposure during pregnancy. However, these studies suffer from some limitations that preclude firm conclusions being reached. Equally there are other prospective studies in pregnancy registries that do not support an increased risk of fetal loss (Bech et al 2014, Vajda et al 2018). Overall, these data are not supportive of a detrimental impact, as all three studies do not support any impact on school performance, nor do they suggest an increased risk of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder or autism spectrum disorder in children in association with oxcarbazepine use during pregnancy. Although the data from the Veroniki et al meta-analysis suggested a significantly increased risk of autism/dyspraxia (OR 13.51 (95% CrI 1.28–221.40)), this was based on limited data as is reflected in the very wide confidence interval.

Seeing, hearing and feeling simultaneously is the natural way to enhance memory and learning. In order to continually and effectively improve our minds we need first to become “mentally literate” a term first coined by Tony Buzan (and unfortunately not a skill taught in most schools). This is a literacy through which you come to understand your brain, and acquire the tools and techniques for learning.

• Sensory Processing DifficultiesThis is a general term meaning that the challenges a person may face, could be due to how the brain is processing information received from the senses.
• Overall, these data are not supportive of a detrimental impact, as all three studies do not support any impact on school performance, nor do they suggest an increased risk of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder or autism spectrum disorder in children in association with oxcarbazepine use during pregnancy.
• When the whole planet has learnt this, then the world will be a better place.
• Healthcare databases are systems into which healthcare providers routinely enter clinical and laboratory data during usual practice as a record of the patient’s care.
• A study in the nationwide Swedish Medical birth register (Margulis et al 2019) reported on the outcomes for 562 pregabalin exposed infants compared to those exposed to lamotrigine.

I recently did this by conjuring up images of being beaten up at school for the first time. “When I was 7 and sought to fit in at school some classmates saw my clumsy attempts to belong as clueless and bullied me for it.” Thinking back, the “moral” of that story (for me, at least) was that trying to fit in brings pain and humiliation. According to Daniel Goleman, who coined the term EQ, two critical facets of EQ are understanding ourselves on the one hand, and knowing how to control ourselves on the other. In 2013 he was awarded the Barbara Wilson Award for his outstanding contribution to neuropsychology and in 2016 the British Psychological Society (BPS) Lifetime Achievement Award for Applied Psychology, given on the basis of outstanding personal career success also reinvesting in psychology through encouraging and developing others.

• Phenytoin (brand name Epanutin) is indicated for the control of tonic-clonic seizures (grand mal epilepsy), partial seizures (focal including temporal lobe) or a combination of these, and for the prevention and treatment of seizures occurring during or following neurosurgery and/or severe head injury.
• For the purpose of clinical definition, pregnancy is divided into two halves, each of 20 weeks.
• In practice, this means that many, or more than one area of development is either delayed or not typical.
• Conditions described as comorbidities are often chronic or long-term conditions.

Development of the brain

Zonisamide is reported to be cerebrumiq teratogenic in multiple animal species, both rodent and non-rodent at plasma concentrations relevant to the human therapeutic dose. NICE guidance recommends that topiramate can be used first line for myoclonic seizures and as adjunctive treatment in generalised tonic-clonic, myoclonic and focal seizures. Oxcarbazepine (brand name Trileptal) is indicated as monotherapy or adjunctive therapy in adults and children aged over 6 years of age with partial seizures with or without secondary generalised seizures. The risk of malformations with gabapentin therefore remains uncertain and further data are needed to inform our understanding. For the medicines listed below there is not enough information on their use in pregnancy to make any conclusions about their safety when used during pregnancy. It is difficult to know exactly how many people have epilepsy but it is estimated that it affects more than 600,000 people in the UK.
