Circannual seizure provocation as the day lengthens in the northern and southern hemispheres
Abstract Circannual status epilepticus (SE) patterns in communities near Earth's poles best test the hypothesis that SE susceptibility varies with light exposure because these communities are routinely subject to large changes in annual light exposure, which may result in changes to daily sleep...
