Challenges of epidemiological research on epilepsy in resource-poor countries.

Résumé

Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders. Today, an estimated 50 million people live with epilepsy (PWE), 80% of whom in developing countries. The public health significance is particularly high in these settings because of its high prevalence, its seizure acuteness and frequency, and the sociological, psychosocial, and financial consequences for the households it affects.
