Cognitive outcome of status epilepticus in adults.

abstract：PURPOSE:The goal of the study was to assess the health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of persons with epilepsy (PWE) by using the short form survey 36 (SF-36), to compare it with that of a control group and to detect factors influencing it. METHODS:We collected clinical and demographic data and information on health ...
