[Relation between the clinical polymorphism of epilepsy and the circadian rhythm of seizures (according to the results of a genetic-epidemiologic study)].
The authors compare the factors, parameters and typology of the clinical polymorphism of epilepsy in two groups of patients from an epidemiological sample: 265 patients with a synchronous and 251 patients with an asynchronous circadian pattern of attacks. It has been found that the asynchronous circadian pattern of attacks significantly correlated with a belated psychomotor development, hyperexcitability premorbid characteristics, convulsive manifestations of the disease, marked changes in the personality, the progressive type of the disease course and a number of other unfavourable signs.
