Mitochondrial complex-1 in Parkinson's disease.

There are two important considerations, the time interval between first seizure and time of registration and the type of seizure. In general, the longer the time interval the less the likelihood of seizure recurrence as the majority of seizure recurrences occur early. Secondly, generalized tonic clonic seizures were the only type of seizure accepted for this study. Simple or complex partial and myoclonic seizures have a higher recurrence risk. Such cases are under represented in “first seizure” studies as patients usually have several of these before presenting to the clinician. Keeping these considerations in mind this study is probably the first of its kind in India and shows how sharing evidence based knowledge with patients can result in patient satisfaction.
