Core Tip This study assessed the diagnostic potential of interleukin-1 beta (IL1-β) and microRNA-146a in distinguishing febrile seizures (FS) from healthy subjects, fever-only, and seizure-only cases. Interleukin-1 beta levels were significantly highest in the FS group, while microRNA-146a levels were lowest in FS and highest in healthy subjects. Both markers demonstrated high diagnostic accuracy in differentiating FS from the other groups, suggesting they are promising diagnostic biomarkers for FS and support the role of neuroinflammation in FS development.
