E Elomaa, R Lehtovaara, A Bardy.   

Abstract

It is suggested that the peptide hormones common to the brain and intestine provide a physiological basis to the hypothesis that acute gastroenteritis during the first postnatal month may be associated with spontaneous epileptogenic activity in EEG and lowered seizure threshold in adult age.
