Description and evaluation of the effects of the cetogenic diet in children with refractory epilepsy

Abstract: La epilepsia refractaria se debido como aquella epilepsia farmacorresistente en la que no hay mejoría tras la aplicación de varios fármacos antiepilépticos (FAE). El Centro de Rehabilitación Infantil Teletón atiende a una gran población de niños con algún tipo de epilepsia. Recientemente la aplicación del protocolo de intervención domiciliario de la dieta cetogénica (DC) ha incrementado. Hace algunos años, la DC solo se atendía con extrema vigilancia en un centro hospitalario bajo esquemas rígidos. Con este an… Show more

“…GLUT1-Disease (GLUT1-DS) represents an elective disease for which classical ketogenic diet is a resolutive therapy. Glucose transporter 1 deficiency syndrome is caused by heterozygous mutations, mostly de novo, in the SLC2A1 gene on chromosome 1p34.2, which codes for GLUT1 (42). Mutations in this gene limit the availability of glucose in the brain, causing a shortage of energy in the brain.…”

“…Most of the clinical cases of epilepsy and GLUT1-DS reported in the literature reveal an important gap between the clinical onset and the time of diagnosis of the syndrome. The most important factor for predictive outcome is age at diagnosis because the effectiveness of the diet decreases when it is started in late childhood (33,35,41,42).…”
