Identification of Genetic Variants in Status Epilepticus Associated With Fever
The detection rate of genetic variants was lower in patients with status epilepticus associated with fever (SEF) (4/15; 26.7%) than in those with DEE (17/27 63.0%). DEE revealed a wide variety of causative genes (16 different genes), whereas in SEF cases, only SCN1A variants were detected. SEF and DEE may have different onset mechanisms.
