Univariate genetic analyses of epilepsy and seizures in a population-based twin study: The Virginia twin registry

1 Jan 1998

Abstract excerpt

The purpose of this study was to examine the roles of genetic and environmental factors in the etiology of epilepsy and seizures in twins ascertained from the Virginia Twin Registry. Health history information on twins was collected by questionnaire. Concordance rates were calculated and used to estimate degree of concordance for seizure types in monozygotic (MZ) and dizygotic (DZ) twin pairs. Univariate twin...
