Gene Profiling and Individualized Treatment of Neonatal Seizure in China

Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Study Type: Observational
SUMMARY

Genetic diagnosis for neonates suffering from epilepsy has important implications for treatment, prognosis, and development of precision medicine strategies. Investigator performed exome sequencing (ES) or targeted sequencing on neonates with seizure onset within the first month of life. Investigator subgrouped our patients based on the onset age of seizure into neonatal and before 1 year (1-12 months), to compare the clinical and genetic features and treatment strategies.
