- The global burden and stigma of epilepsy. (2008, background): “Poor sanitation, inadequate health delivery systems, and higher risk of brain infections and infestations may contribute to this [1,11], although methodological issues may also contribute.”
- Standards for epidemiologic studies and surveillance of epilepsy (2011, background): “In low and middle income countries, estimates of the corresponding rates are generally higher (Hauser, 1995; Kotsopoulos et al., 2002; Sander, 2003; Burneo et al., 2005b; Preux & Druet-Cabanac, 2005; Ngugi et al., 2010).”
- The consequences of refractory epilepsy and its treatment. (2014, background): “The prevalence of epilepsy in developed countries ranges between 4 and 10 per 1,000 individuals per year [2,20,21], with much greater prevalence rates in developing and resource-poor countries [2], and some estimates at greater than 130 per 1000 individuals per year [3,24].”
