Whole‐Exome Sequencing of a Saudi Epilepsy Cohort Reveals Association Signals in Known and Potentially Novel Loci

2021-09-23

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Epilepsy, a serious chronic neurological condition effecting up to 100 million people globally, has clear genetic underpinnings including common and rare variants. In Saudi Arabia the prevalence of epilepsy is high and caused mainly by perinatal and genetic factors. No whole-exome sequencing (WES) studies have been performed to date in Saudi Arabian Epilepsy cohorts. This of...
