Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To explore disease-causing gene mutations of epilepsy with febrile seizures plus (EFS+) in Southern Chinese Han population. METHODS: Blood samples and clinical data were collected from 49 Southern Han Chinese patients with EFS+. Gene screening was performed using whole-exome sequencing and panel sequencing for 485 epilepsy-related genes. The pathogenicity of variants was evaluated based on ACMG scoring...
