Traumatic brain injury (TBI) and perinatal adversities such as low gestational age at birth, low birth weight, low Apgar, and being born small for gestational age are well-established risk factors for epilepsy.
Many parents have significant misunderstandings, negative attitudes, and parenting practices, and their knowledge and understanding of epilepsy needs to be improved.

This study aimed to identify the important predictors of favorable surgical outcomes and the impact of the interictal scalp electroencephalogram (EEG) patterns in predicting postsurgical seizure outcomes.
The vaccines did not affect the monthly number of seizures of the people with epilepsy. A small number of patients had more seizures than normal after vaccination. We think that benefits of the vaccines outweigh the slightly increased possibility of having a seizure after vaccination.
Regular physical activity for at least 150 min per week, in the form of moderate-intense aerobic exercises resulted in positive yet non-significant improvement of quality of life, seizure frequency, and stigma in people with epilepsy.
