Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: A recent genome-wide scan revealed a major susceptibility locus for idiopathic generalized epilepsies (IGEs) in the chromosomal region 8p12 in 32 IGE families without members with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME). This study explored the presence of an IGE locus in the chromosomal region 8p12. METHODS: Our study included 176 multiplex families of probands with common IGE syndromes. Parametric and...
