Abstract:Background
Valproic acid (VPA) is recommended as a first-line treatment for children with epilepsy.
GABRG2
polymorphism is found to be associated with epilepsy susceptibility and therapeutic response of anti-seizure medications (ASM); however, the role of

in VPA treatment still remains unknown.
Objective
The purpose of this study was to explore the association of
