Bioinformatic analysis identifies potential key genes of epilepsy.

<h4>Background</h4>Epilepsy is one of the most common brain disorders worldwide. It is usually hard to be identified properly, and a third of patients are drug-resistant. Genes related to the progression and prognosis of epilepsy are particularly needed to be identified.<h4>Methods...
