case_images: Accordingly, the median age in the group without neurological symptoms was 2.5 years, compared to 10.9 years in patients with neurological symptoms (Supplementary Figure 1).
case_images: (A) EEG performed at the Emergency Department (ED) showing left fronto-temporal epileptiform abnormalities (arrow). (B) T2-weighted axial brain MR, showing the consequences of an old ischemic lesion in the left parietal lobe (arrow).

case_images: Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) confirmed the previous ischemic lesion plus a post-ictal left fronto-insular perfusion alteration, and the electroencephalogram (EEG) showed left frontotemporal epileptiform abnormalities (Figure 2).
case_images: (A) Patients with and without neurological symptoms stratified by age range; (B) Patients with and without neurological symptoms stratified for priority triage code at the Emergency Department (ED).

case_images: The prevalence of each neurological manifestation stratified by age range is shown in Table 4 and Figure 3A. The triage code given on admission at the ED according to the Italian former color code system (red - emergency, yellow - urgency, green - non-urgent, and white - minor issues) was green in 78.1%, yellow in 18.8%, and red in 3.1% of the children with neurological symptoms, while patients without neurological symptoms got white code in 2.9%, green in 77.6%, and yellow in 12.2% cases (Figure 3B).
