Through a bibliographic research and a study of a case, it brings the story of an 8-year-old child with a diagnostic hypothesis of ADHD. Data was collected through the mother's narrative and recorded in a field journal. The results reveal that the student's task demanded by the school goes beyond cognitive aspects and content learning, involving an adult's expectation about a way of being school. It is concluded that the school must embrace diversity and difference, so as not to incur in strategies for the defense and no responsibility of pedagogical work.

The gene EFHC1 has been implicated as a putative cause of JME. However, it remains debatable whether testing for EFHC1 mutations should be included in the diagnostic epilepsy gene panels. To investigate the clinical utility of EFHC1 testing, we studied 125 individuals: 100 with JME and 25 with other GGEs. We amplified and sequenced all EFHC1 coding exons. Then, we predicted the pathogenicity or benign impact of the variants using the analyses proposed by the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG)/Association for Molecular Pathology (AMP). Mutation screening revealed 11 missense variants in 44 probands with JME (44%) and one of the seven individuals with generalized tonic-clonic seizures on awakening (14%). Six of the 11 variants ( 54%) were classified as 'benign,' and the remaining variants were considered variants of uncertain significance (VUS). There is currently a limitation to test for genes that predispose an individual to complex, nonmonogenic phenotypes. Thus, we show suggestive evidence that EFHC1 testing lacks a scientific foundation based on the disputed nature of the gene-disease relationship and should be currently limited to research purposes.
