The purpose of this study was to study the effects of giving information to parents with febrile convulsive children. All parents of children with febrile convulsions who are seen at Worcester Royal Infirmary are given information. Fifty parents of children who had had a first febrile convulsion during May 1996 to December 1996 were interviewed by telephone from July to September 1997. The same...
Procalcitonin (PCT) and Interleukin-6 (IL-6) have emerged as biomarkers for different inflammatory conditions. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the role of PCT and IL-6 as biomarkers of cancer and its progression in a large cohort of patients. This cross-sectional study included residual plasma samples collected from cancer patients, and control subjects without cancer. Levels of PCT an...
PURPOSE Electroencephalography (EEG) is frequently ordered for patients with febrile seizures despite its unclear diagnostic value. We evaluated the prevalence of abnormal EEGs, the association between clinical findings and abnormal EEGs, and the predictive value of EEG for the recurrence of febrile seizures. METHODS Data were collected on 230 children who were treated for febrile seizures at...
BACKGROUND Febrile seizure a common convulsion disorder in children, can lead to increased morbidity and mortality because of risk of aspiration and hypoxia during prolonged febrile seizures. There are many risk factors associated with febrile seizures and their recurrence. We conducted this study to see if there is a role of iron status in febrile seizures. METHODS This cross-sectional study...
Implication for health policy/practice/research/medical education: Febrile convulsions are the most common convulsive seizures in infants and preschool children. They are a leading cause of parental anxiety and family disruption. Recent studies have shown low serum zinc levels in children with febrile convulsions. Therefore, we carried out a study to determine and compare the serum zinc level i...
febrile convulsion (fc) is the most common seizure disorder in young children. different predisposing factors have been suggested to enhance the susceptibility to febrile seizure and its recurrence. the main objective of this study was to identify the adverse effect of electrolytes disturbance in fc and its recur-rence. the medical records of 175 children with convulsive disorders were reviewed...
febrile collected from members of both groups and serum samples were prepared. interleukin 1β concentrations were measured using a commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (elisa) kit. we found that there was a difference in serum levels of interleukin 1β between fc and control group but it was not significant. this result may be due to the low number of samples or the result of i...
INTRODUCTION Simple febrile seizures are generalised in onset, last <15 minutes, and do not occur more than once in 24 hours. Complex febrile seizures are longer lasting, have focal symptoms, and can recur within 24 hours. This review only deals with simple febrile seizures. About 2% to 5% of children in the USA and Western Europe, and 6% to 9% of infants and children in Japan will have experie...
Febrile seizure (FS) is the most common seizure disorder of childhood, and occurs in an age-related manner. FS are classified into simple and complex. FS has a multifactorial inheritance, suggesting that both genetic and environmental factors are causative. Various animal models have elucidated the pathophysiological mechanisms of FS. Risk factors for a first FS are a family history of the diso...
BACKGROUND A febrile seizure (FS) is the most common convulsive disorder in children. Activation of cytokine network is involved in FS pathogenesis. Adiponectin, leptin and IL-6 are the major adipocytokines secreted by fat cells. To date, only a few studies concerned the association of adipocytokines with febrile seizures. In this study, we tried to investigate serum and CSF levels of adiponect...
