Brief Summary
Febrile seizures (FS) are the most common neurological disorder in chilhood. The etiology of FN is still the subject of numerous studies and it is known that it can depend on genetic predisposition.

Primary Outcomes (2)
Detection of the polymorphism in the TRPV1 gene polymorphisms
The detection of the polymorphism in the TRPV1 gene will be done by the PCR Real time method: During PCR ampification, in addition to primers, an allele of specific oligonucleotide probes is used, which at the 5 'end is labeled with specific fluorescent dye (Reporter dye, eg VIC and FAM), while at the 3' position there is a quencher, which is the role of blocking fluorescence emissions.The fluorescence intensity increases during each cycle and allows us to monitor dynamic reactions in real time.After the final PCR reaction, increasing the fluorescence of the dyes is displayed on the heterozygosity of the test allele. Fluorescence coupling of only one color indicates a homozygous state.VIC dye corresponds to allele C, and FAM dye to allele G.

Study Arms (6)
FS: Febrile Seizures
Involved patient with diagnosed Febrile Seizures which were hospitalized or recieved ambulatory treatment in University Children´s Hospital in Belgrade. Ages 1-14 years
CN: Control group
The control group was made of healthy children older than 5 years of age, which have never had any neurological disorders in their anamnesis and who were patients in preschool or school dispensaries in the city of Belgrade
SFS : group of individuals with simple FS
Simplex febrile seizures (SFS) last shorter than 15 minutes and their type is tonic-clonic. Also, they did not show signs of recidivism during the first 24 hours and were diagnosed at the patients aged from 6th months to 5th year
CFS : group of individuals with complex FS
Complex febrile seizures (CFS) were diagnosed at those patients that had focal seizure or epileptic status or seizure having the body temperature lower than 38 degree, which occurred outside of the typical age group and finally which repeated in the first 24 hours again
WFS: group of individuals with FS and without epilepsia
group of children with Febrile Seizure and not developed Epilepsia
EFS: group of individuals with Epilepsia and Febrile Seizures
Group of children with Febrile Seizures, who have developed Epilepsy
Interventions
We are isolated DNA from the blood sample. To determine the genotypes of the analyzed polymorphisms use real-time PCR using TaqMan essays. When analyzing the KCC2 polymorphisms, the VIC dye gene corresponded to the C allele, and the FAM dye corresponded to the T allele, while at the TRPV1 gene polymorphism, the VIC dye corresponded to the C allele and the FAM dye to the G allele.
Eligibility Criteria
The Febrile Seizure affected children as well as the individuals from the control group were members of the same population (Serbian).
You may qualify if:
- Our research involve patient with diagnosed Febrile Seizure which were hospitalized or recieved ambulatory treatment in University Children´s Hospital in Belgrade
- For each patient, a diagnosis of FS was made based on the ILAE definition (International Leage
You may not qualify if:
- Patients with evidence of intracranial infections and metabolic disbalance
- Patients with incomplited medical documentation
