Which condition can result in the possibility of seizure in adults?

Meningitis is an infection or inflammation of the protective membranes covering the brain and spinal cord, known as the meninges. This condition can lead to a variety of serious complications, including seizures. When the brain is affected by inflammation or infection, electrical activity within the brain can become disrupted, which increases the risk of seizures.

In contrast, while asthma, high blood pressure, and gastroenteritis have their own health implications, they are not typically associated with the development of seizures in adults. Asthma primarily affects the respiratory system, high blood pressure can lead to cardiovascular issues, and gastroenteritis usually impacts the gastrointestinal system without directly influencing brain activity or leading to seizures. Thus, meningitis stands out as a condition with a direct connection to the possibility of seizures.
