- In patients with drug-resistant epilepsy, psychiatric disorders can worsen seizure severity and decrease the likelihood of successful treatment.
- There are notable demographic and clinical differences between men and women with epilepsy, and the prevalence of drug-resistant epilepsy varies significantly with age and region, highlighting the need for targeted management strategies.
