Disease ID | Source | Name | Description |
607208 | OMIM | Dravet syndrome (DRVT) | A severe form of epileptic encephalopathy characterized by generalized tonic, clonic, and tonic-clonic seizures that are initially induced by fever and begin during the first year of life. Later, patients also manifest other seizure types, including absence, myoclonic, and simple and complex partial seizures. Psychomotor development delay is observed around the second year of life. Some patients manifest a borderline disease phenotype and do not necessarily fulfill all diagnostic criteria for core DRVT. DRVT is considered to be the most severe phenotype within the spectrum of generalized epilepsies with febrile seizures-plus. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |

604403 | OMIM | Generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus 2 (GEFS+2) | A rare autosomal dominant, familial condition with incomplete penetrance and large intrafamilial variability. Patients display febrile seizures persisting sometimes beyond the age of 6 years and/or a variety of afebrile seizure types. This disease combines febrile seizures, generalized seizures often precipitated by fever at age 6 years or more, and partial seizures, with a variable degree of severity. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |

609634 | OMIM | Migraine, familial hemiplegic, 3 (FHM3) | A subtype of migraine associated with transient blindness in some families. Migraine is a disabling symptom complex of periodic headaches, usually temporal and unilateral. Headaches are often accompanied by irritability, nausea, vomiting and photophobia, preceded by constriction of the cranial arteries. The two major subtypes are common migraine (migraine without aura) and classic migraine (migraine with aura). Classic migraine is characterized by recurrent attacks of reversible neurological symptoms (aura) that precede or accompany the headache. Aura may include a combination of sensory disturbances, such as blurred vision, hallucinations, vertigo, numbness and difficulty in concentrating and speaking. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
