Background: Epilepsy-associated dysbiosis in gut microbiota has been previously described, but the mechanistic roles of the gut microbiome in epileptogenesis among children with cerebral palsy (CP) have yet to be illustrated.

Methods: Using shotgun metagenomic sequencing coupled with untargeted metabolomics analysis, this observational study compared the gut microbiome and metabolome of eight children with non-epileptic cerebral palsy (NECP) to those of 13 children with cerebral palsy with epilepsy (CPE). Among children with CPE, 8 had drug-sensitive epilepsy (DSE) and five had drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE).
