Systematic review reveals marked heterogeneity and substantial reporting gaps in global epilepsy prevalence and incidence estimates, highlighting the urgent need for standardized epidemiologic...
This study provides a comprehensive synthesis of the prevalence and incidence of epilepsy from published international studies and offers insight into factors that contribute to heterogeneity between estimates. Significant gaps (e.g., lack of incidence studies, stratification by age groups) were identified. Standardized reporting of future epidemiologic studies of epilepsy is needed.
