Febrile Seizures – Can Vitamin C Act as Prophylactic Agent? [PDF]

National Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 2017
Introduction: Febrile convulsions are defined as seizures in children between 6 months to 5 years of age, accompanied with fever, but without evidence of underlying CNS infection. The incidence is about 2-5% in the population.

Current understanding of febrile seizures and their long‐term outcomes

Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 2020
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 ...

Mossy fiber plasticity and enhanced hippocampal excitability, without hippocampal cell loss or altered neurogenesis, in an animal model of prolonged febrile seizures. [PDF]

, 1991
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.

Structure‐based discovery of CZL80, a caspase‐1 inhibitor with therapeutic potential for febrile seizures and later enhanced epileptogenic susceptibility

British Journal of Pharmacology, 2020
Febrile seizures (FS), the most common seizures in childhood and often accompanied by later epileptogenesis, are not well controlled. Inflammatory processes have been implicated in the pathophysiology of epilepsy.

Epilepsy, hippocampal sclerosis and febrile seizures linked by common genetic variation around SCN1A [PDF]

, 2013
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 ...

Genetic epilepsy with febrile seizures plus (GEFS+)

Эпилепсия и пароксизмальные состояния, 2020
Febrile seizures (FS) occur in about 2–3% of children aged 3 months to 5 years. Atypical febrile seizures are those with a focal component. Each subsequent febrile attack increases the risk of transformation into epilepsy. After the third febrile seizure,

Fever, febrile seizures and epilepsy. [PDF]

, 2007
Seizures induced by fever (febrile seizures) are the most common type of pathological brain activity in infants and children. These febrile seizures and their potential contribution to the mechanisms of limbic (temporal lobe) epilepsy have been a topic ...

Serum Neurofilament Levels in Children With Febrile Seizures and in Controls

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
Objective Neuroaxonal damage is reflected by serum neurofilament light chain (sNfL) values in a variety of acute and degenerative diseases of the brain. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of febrile and epileptic seizures on sNfL, serum ...

Serum Sodium Levels Predict the Recurrence of Febrile Seizure within 24 Hours

Journal of Health Science and Medical Research (JHSMR), 2019
Objective: Febrile seizure is a common disorder in children that occurs in 2.5% of children 6-60 months of age. The study was conducted to ascertain the role of serum sodium as a predictor of seizure recurrence within the same febrile illness.

Prevalence of non-febrile seizures in children with idiopathic autism spectrum disorder and their unaffected siblings: a retrospective cohort study [PDF]

, 2016
BACKGROUND: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a heterogeneous disorder characterized not only by deficits in communication and social interactions but also a high rate of co-occurring disorders, including metabolic abnormalities, gastrointestinal and ...
