Anemia, inflammation, circadian rhythm and season effects in febrile convulsions
Young age, anemia, inflammation, and hypocapnia may facilitate the occurrence of febrile convulsions. MPV and NLO, which are hemogram parameters, can guide us about inflammation. Blood gases may provide information regarding hypocapnia. These rapid examinations may help elucidate the etiology. Prospective studies are needed for circadian rhythm in febrile convulsions.
