Key Points

This research aims to explore the relationships between early clinical features, EEG patterns, and genetic factors in epilepsy outcomes.
Conducted a retrospective analysis of clinical and EEG data
Identified genotype-phenotype associations using hierarchical clustering analysis (HCA)
Mapped outcomes onto specific genetic etiologies
Observed meaningful associations between early features and genetic outcomes
Found coherent genotype-phenotype clusters that could aid in diagnosis
Noted limitations due to small sample sizes and retrospective design

Abstract

Early clinical and EEG features showed meaningful associations with outcomes and mapped onto specific genetic etiologies. HCA revealed coherent genotype-phenotype clusters that may support early diagnostic reasoning. Limitations include the retrospective design and small numbers per gene, warranting larger multicenter studies for validation.
