The EEG and Incidence of Epilepsy in Down's Syndrome.
Tangye, Sheila R.
Journal of Mental Deficiency Research, v23 pt1 p17-24 Mar 1979
It was found, among other things, that neither the presence of congenital heart disease, nor diabetes, nor intercurrent illness appeared to have any effect on the development of seizures. The age groups with the lowest proportion of EEG abnormalities were 25-34 years (48.7 percent abnormal) and 35-44 years (54.1 percent abnormal). (Author/DLS)
