Epileptic disorders: advances in the diagnostic and therapeutic strategies

Epilepsy is a neurological disorder that affects a substantial number of individuals worldwide, with more than 70 million individuals suffering from this condition. It is considered to be one of the most common serious diseases of the central nervous system. The incidence of epilepsy shows a bimodal distribution, meaning that the highest risk of developing the disorder is observed in infants and older age groups. The clinical presentation of epilepsy can vary greatly from person to person, resulting in diverse symptoms and manifestations. These variations can have a profound impact on the patients’ quality of life, affecting their daily activities, social interactions, and overall well-being. This Article Collection focuses on the latest research progress in epilepsy diagnosis and treatment.
