Cognitive Outcome in Young Adults after Resolution of Epilepsy in Childhood
Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.Self‐limited epilepsies of childhood are common and were considered benign. We aim to determine whether cognitive function in young adults who experienced epilepsy as children and are subsequently seizure‐free and unmedicated differ from the general population. We report on a cross‐sectional population‐based study including 2,124,871 men and women aged
