Genome-wide association study of febrile seizures identifies seven new loci implicating fever response and neuronal excitability genes

2020-11-20

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Febrile seizures represent the most common type of pathological brain activity in young children and are influenced by genetic, environmental, and developmental factors. While usually benign, in a minority of cases, febrile seizures precede later development of epilepsy. Here, we conducted a genome-wide association study of febrile seizures with 7,635 cases and 93,966 controls identifying and rep...
