ATP6V0C Is Associated With Febrile Seizures and Epilepsy With Febrile Seizures Plus
Purpose To identify novel genetic causes of febrile seizures (FS) and epilepsy with febrile seizures plus (EFS+). Methods We performed whole-exome sequencing in a cohort of 32 families, in which at least two individuals were affected by FS or EFS+.

Febrile seizures: perceptions and knowledge of parents of affected and unaffected children
Febrile seizures (FS) in children are common, but little is known about parents’ perceptions and knowledge of FS. We interviewed parents of children aged 6 months to 6 years affected by FS (FS group, 65 parents) or unaffected (control group, 54 parents).

Febrile seizures are the most common convulsive disorder in children. The definition, epidemiology, genetics, clinical features, evaluation and management are reviewed. The importance of evaluating the very young child with febrile seizure for an underlying CNS infection is reviewed. The current standard of treatment is discussed.

Background: Febrile seizures are seizures associated with fever during childhood that most often occurs in children ages six months-five years, with a peak incidence of 18 months Although febrile seizures generally have a good prognosis, they can signal ...

Mossy fiber plasticity and enhanced hippocampal excitability, without hippocampal cell loss or altered neurogenesis, in an animal model of prolonged febrile seizures. [PDF]
Seizures induced by fever (febrile seizures) are the most frequent seizures affecting infants and children; however, their impact on the developing hippocampal formation is not completely understood.

Background: Febrile seizure occurs in 2–5% of neurologically healthy infants and children. The recurrence of febrile seizures is 30% after single episode, 50% after 2 or more episodes, and 50% when febrile seizures occur in infants.

Current understanding of febrile seizures and their long‐term outcomes
In this paper we reframe febrile seizures, which are viewed as a symptom of an underlying brain disorder. The general observation is that a small cohort of children will develop febrile seizures (2–5% in the West), while the greater majority will not ...
