Global, regional, and national burden of epilepsy, 1990–2021: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study in 2021
Although global health is improving in line with population growth and age structure, the burden of idiopathic epilepsy remains significant. This study provides an important basis for prevention and care strategies for idiopathic epilepsy in different regions. Future work should focus on integrating idiopathic epilepsy into public health priorities, promoting effective measures, and narrowing treatment gaps.
