The Role of Seizure-Related SEZ6 as a Susceptibility Gene in Febrile Seizures

Neurology Research International, 2011
Sixty cases of febrile seizures from a Chinese cohort had previously been reported with a strong association between variants in the seizure-related (SEZ) 6 gene and febrile seizures. They found a striking lack of genetic variation in their controls.

Early postictal electroencephalography and correlation with clinical findings in children with febrile seizures [PDF]

Korean Journal of Pediatrics, 2013
PurposeElectroencephalography (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 ...

Enduring Memory Impairments Provoked by Developmental Febrile Seizures Are Mediated by Functional and Structural Effects of Neuronal Restrictive Silencing Factor

Journal of Neuroscience, 2017
In a subset of children experiencing prolonged febrile seizures (FSs), the most common type of childhood seizures, cognitive outcomes are compromised. However, the underlying mechanisms are unknown. Here we identified significant, enduring spatial memory

Fish oil (n-3 fatty acids) in drug resistant epilepsy: a randomised placebo-controlled crossover study. [PDF]

, 2014
Backgroundn-3 fatty acids inhibit neuronal excitability and reduce seizures in animal models. High-dose fish oil has been explored in two randomised trials in drug resistant epilepsy with negative results.

Altered neurostructural development in magnetic resonance imaging‐negative pediatric epilepsy: A large‐scale multicenter study of 1919 children

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Addressing the poorly understood impact of pediatric epilepsy on neurodevelopment, this large‐scale study delineates age‐ and sex‐stratified neurostructural trajectories in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)‐negative pediatric epilepsy to identify periods of maximal developmental divergence from healthy controls.

Behavioral and epileptic phenotypes in a CHD2‐related developmental delay model

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Heterozygous loss‐of‐function mutations in the CHD2 gene, encoding chromodomain helicase DNA‐binding protein 2, are associated with severe childhood onset epilepsy, global developmental delay, and autistic features. Animal models that accurately recapitulate human phenotypes are crucial for understanding rare neurodevelopmental ...

Predictive value of seizure onset for gross motor dysfunction in individuals with pathogenic GABRB2 and GABRB3 variants

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Pathogenic variants in γ‐aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptor genes have been associated with a wide spectrum of neurological disorders. We aimed to delineate the clinical trajectories associated with gain‐of‐function (GoF) and loss‐of‐function (LoF) variants in GABRB2 and GABRB3, and to develop a risk‐prediction model for gross
