Epilepsy, hippocampal sclerosis and febrile seizures linked by common genetic variation around SCN1A
Epilepsy comprises several syndromes, amongst the most common being mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis. Seizures in mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis are typically drug-resistant, and mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis is frequently associated with important co-morbidities, mandating the search for better understanding and treat...
Febrile seizure is the most common seizure disorder in children. Approximately 2-5% of children will experience a febrile seizure. There are two types of febrile seizure: simple and complex. The two types vary in their characteristics and also in their prognosis. Simple febrile seizures are generally benign neurological events that carry an excellent prognosis. On the other hand, research shows...
BACKGROUND Febrile seizures are the most common seizure disorder in childhood, associated with a significant rise in body temperature. However, post-infectious refractory afebrile form of seizures in previously healthy children is being increasingly recognized in around the world, which evolves into a chronic refractory form of epilepsy. The term 'Febrile infection-related epilepsy syndrome' (F...
430 www.thelancet.com Vol 372 August 9, 2008 in the general population, it is diffi cult to exclude chance as an explanation for their fi ndings. In today’s study, Vestergaard and colleagues tested the hypothesis that febrile seizures are associated with an increased risk of death, by examining mortality data from a cohort of more than 1·6 million children, including over 55 000 children with f...
PURPOSE Febrile seizure, the most common type of pediatric convulsive disorder, is a benign seizure syndrome distinct from epilepsy. However, as epilepsy is also common during childhood, we aimed to identify the prognostic factors that can predict epilepsy in children with febrile seizures. METHODS The study comprised 249 children at the Korea University Ansan Hospital who presented with febr...
PURPOSE Febrile seizures are induced by fever and are the most common type of seizures in children. Although numerous studies have been performed on febrile seizures, their pathophysiology remains unclear. Recent studies have shown that cytokines may play a role in the pathogenesis of febrile seizures. The present study was conducted to identify potential links between serum interleukin-1beta (...
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...
background: serum prolactin level has been used as an alternative determinant to help differentiate epileptic from non-epileptic seizures. we aimed to analyze the association between serum prolactin concentration and epileptic seizure versus febrile seizure as well as seizure duration, single versus multiple seizure attacks and time lapse between seizure onset and blood sampling. methods: sev...
This review focuses on the latest knowledge and understanding of febrile seizures and outlines the more important issues in the management of children who present with an apparent "febrile seizure". It is not the remit of this paper to discuss the detailed management of febrile seizures. Throughout this review, the words "partial" and "focal" will be used interchangeably and the term "febrile s...
