Introduction: Children with epilepsy present greater prevalence of sleep disorders than the general population. Their diagnosis is essential, since epilepsy and sleep disorders have a bidirectional relationship.
Objective: Determine the incidence of sleep disorders and poor sleep habits in children with epilepsy.
Introduction: The KCNB1 gene encodes a voltage-dependent potassium channel that regulates transmembrane currents in pyramidal neurons. Heterozygous variants have recently been associated with early-onset epileptic encephalopathies and intellectual disability, but their clinical characterisation has not yet been fully defined.
Aim: To describe the clinical spectrum associated with variants of KCNB1 in paediatric patients.
Background And Objectives: To determine the efficacy, tolerance, and safety of BRV in children with epilepsy.
Methods: A retrospective study of patients with epilepsy who received treatment with BRV before age 16 years and underwent a minimum follow-up of 3 months.
Method And Results: Sixty-six patients were included in the study.
