Abstract:Background
Previous studies have indicated a potential relationship between zinc and epilepsy. The aim of this study is to investigate the causal relationship between zinc, zinc-dependent carbonic anhydrase, and gray matter volume in brain regions enriched with zinc, in relation to epileptic seizures, as well as explore the possible mechanisms by which zinc contributes to epilepsy.
Methods
First, this study assessed the risk causality between zinc, carbonic anhydrase, and gray matter volume alterations in zi… Show more
