Abstract
⺠Children with absence epilepsy demonstrate impaired interictal attention. ⺠Impaired attention correlates with decreased BOLD fMRI in medial frontal cortex (MFC). ⺠Connectivity between right anterior insula and MFC is impaired in absence epilepsy. ⺠This provides a functional anatomical basis for impaired attention in absence epilepsy.
