Iron overload without the C282Y mutation in patients with epilepsy.

Journal of neurology, neurosurgery, and psychiatry - 1 Apr 2001

Ikeda M

Abstract excerpt

To test the hypothesis that iron overload predisposes to epilepsy, transferrin saturation in 130 patients with epilepsy and sex and age matched 128 control subjects without epilepsy were studied. Mean transferrin saturation was significantly higher in the epilepsy group (39.9 (SD 19.6)%) than in the control group (29.1 (SD 14.9)%). Abnormally high transferrin saturations (men>60%, women>48%) were found in 10...
