Study finds 20% of newborns with seizures develop epilepsy by age one, highlighting risk factors.
A Danish study reveals that 20% of newborns with neonatal seizures develop epilepsy by age one.
Researchers analyzed 1,998 children born between 1997 and 2018 who experienced neonatal seizures, finding a 20.4% risk of epilepsy compared to 1.15% in those without seizures.
Risk factors include stroke, hemorrhage, brain malformations, and low Apgar scores.
Despite this, four out of five infants do not develop epilepsy, suggesting further research into genetic predispositions.
