Could a simple blood test tell us more about fever seizures in kids?

This study looks at whether children who have seizures with fever show signs of DNA damage in their blood. Researchers measure a substance called 8-OHdG, which is a marker of oxidative stress, in children with simple or complex febrile seizures and compare it to healthy children. The goal is to see if this marker can help tell the difference between seizure types. It is an early, exploratory study and not yet ready for use in clinics.
