Interictal epileptiform discharges were associated with poorer cognitive performance in adult epileptic patients

摘要

Objective: Cognitive impairment is one of the major consequences of epilepsy and has been shown to reduce quality of life. Interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) were associated with poorer cognitive performance in children, and the aim of this study was to determine whether there was a similar association in adults.
