Disease ID | Source | Name | Description |
617113 | OMIM | Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 43 (DEE43) | A form of epileptic encephalopathy, a heterogeneous group of severe childhood onset epilepsies characterized by refractory seizures, neurodevelopmental impairment, and poor prognosis. Development is normal prior to seizure onset, after which cognitive and motor delays become apparent. DEE43 inheritance is autosomal dominant. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
612269 | OMIM | Epilepsy, childhood absence 5 (ECA5) | A subtype of idiopathic generalized epilepsy characterized by an onset at age 6-7 years, frequent absence seizures (several per day) and bilateral, synchronous, symmetric 3-Hz spike waves on EEG. Tonic-clonic seizures often develop in adolescence. Absence seizures may either remit or persist into adulthood. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
