Abstract excerpt
Heritable EEG traits are often associated with epilepsy, and photoparoxysmal EEG response (PPR) is the most notable example of this observation in JME. Such EEG traits may be a subclinical expression of the defective mechanism that leads to epilepsy. Therefore, these traits can be used to map epilepsy genes by dissecting the complex epilepsy phenotype in endophenotypic sections that on their own have a presumed...
