    Abstract:
    Objective. To investigate the prevalence and risk factors for electrical status epilepticus during slow-wave sleep (ESES) in patients with self-limited epilepsy with centrotemporal spikes (SeLECTS). Methods. The clinical and follow-up data of children with SeLECTS were collected between 2017 and 2021. Patients were divided into typical ESES, atypical ESES, and non-ESES groups according to spike-wave indices (SWI). Clinical and electroencephalography characteristics were retrospectively analyzed. Logistic regression was used to identify risk factors for ESES. Results. A total of 95 patients with SeLECTS were enrolled. Seven patients (7.4%) developed typical ESES, 30 (31.6%) developed atypical ESES, 25 (26.3%) developed ESES at the first visit, and 12 (12.6%) developed ESES during treatment and follow-up. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the risk factors for SeLECTS combined with ESES were Rolandic double or multiple spikes (OR = 8.626, 95% CI: 2.644-28.147, P < .001) and Rolandic slow waves (OR = 53.550, 95% CI: 6.339-452.368, P < .001). There were no significant differences in seizure characteristics, electroencephalogram (EEG) findings, or cognitive impairment between the atypical and typical ESES groups. Conclusion. More than one-third of the SeLECTS patients combined with ESES. Both atypical and typical ESES scores can affect cognitive function. On electroencephalography, interictal Rolandic double/multiple spikes and slow-wave abnormalities may indicate SeLECTS with ESES.
