Abstract
Febrile seizures (FS) are among the most common neurological disorders in childhood, and their pathogenesis may be influenced by multiple factors. As scientific research progresses, the significant role of B vitamins in the nervous system has become progressively clearer. In this study, children clinically diagnosed with FS were selected as the experimental group, and febrile children without a history of convulsions or a family history of seizures were selected as the control group to investigate the potential correlation between FS and whole-blood B vitamin levels. The concentrations of B vitamins in whole blood were measured using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, and statistical analyses were conducted using SPSS 25.0, followed by significance testing. The levels of vitamins B1, B2, B5, B6, B7, and B12 in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group, particularly vitamins B5 and B7 (P < .05). Additionally, statistically significant differences were observed between sodium and calcium ion levels. These results suggest that febrile convulsions are the complex outcome of multiple factors, including known ion channel defects. Vitamin B may play a role in febrile convulsions and warrants further investigation.
