Febrile convulsions in selected large families: a single-major-locus mode of inheritance?

Developmental medicine and child neurology - 1 Feb 1997

Maher J, McLachlan R S

Abstract excerpt

As part of a genetic linkage study of febrile convulsions, families with at least four members with the disorder were identified. By applying known principles of human inheritance, possible modes of transmission of febrile convulsions and factors which might impede progress in understanding their inheritance were analyzed. In eight families, 75 of 333 members had febrile convulsions. Inheritance of the disorder...
