The construction and validation of a clinical predictive model for somatic symptom disorders in epilepsy patients
Older age, exposure to negative life events, higher GAD-7, NDDI-E, and PSQI scores, and lower scores on the seizure worry and energy/fatigue dimensions of QOLIE-31 are independent risk factors for SSD in epilepsy patients. The constructed nomogram model demonstrates favorable predictive performance. External validation within an independent multicenter cohort is required prior to clinical implementation.
