Abstract excerpt

Recently, an association between a regulatory polymorphism in the gene encoding the pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin (IL)-1beta and febrile convulsions (FC) has been reported. In this study we attempted to confirm these findings in a sample consisting of 99 FC patients and 126 ethnically matched controls. Since about 3% of all FC patients experience unprovoked seizures (epilepsy) later during life we...
