The Pathogenesis of Fever-Induced Febrile Seizures and Its Current State
Neuroscience Insights, 2020 Febrile seizures, commonly in children between the ages of 3 months to 5 years, are a neurological abnormality characterized by neuronal hyper-excitability, that occur as a result of an increased core body temperature during a fever, which was caused by ...

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.

Genetic epilepsy with febrile seizures plus – an overview [PDF]
Romanian Journal of Neurology, 2021 Genetic epilepsy with febrile seizures plus (GEFS+) is characterized by a group of genetic epilepsies associated predominately with an autosomal dominant pattern, but also with de novo and autosomal-recessive inheritance, these last two found in a small ...

Five Years Study of Recurrent Febrile Seizure Risk Factors
Althea Medical Journal, 2017 Background: Nearly one-third of febrile seizure patients suffered recurrent febrile seizures. Several risk factors contribute to this recurrence, namely young age, family history of febrile seizures, low body temperature and rapid duration of fever ...

A Study of clinical and laboratory profile of children presenting with febrile seizures in a teaching hospital [PDF]
Perspectives In Medical Research, 2020 Background: Febrile seizures are the most common cause of convulsions in children. Although most febrile seizures are benign, the child must be evaluated immediately to reduce parental anxiety, to identify the cause of fever and preventable risk ...

Febrile seizures in the developing brain result in persistent modification of neuronal excitability in limbic circuits. [PDF]
, 1999 Febrile (fever-induced) seizures affect 3-5% of infants and young children. Despite the high incidence of febrile seizures, their contribution to the development of epilepsy later in life has remained controversial.
