“…It was found that FER accuracy was approaching a significant positive relationship with 'years of epilepsy'. However, the lack of a significant negative relationship here is inconsistent with evidence that patients with chronic MTLE show deficits in the recognition of both facial and vocal expression of emotions, or with previous evidence that a deficit of FER is associated with duration of epilepsy (Bonora et al, 2011;Meletti et al, 2009).…”

“…This suggestion is consistent with previous suggestions that sensory-limbic hyperconnections generate the behavioural profile of TLE and possibly some other epilepsy types (Persinger, 1987;Bear, 1979;Kochen, 1993). Notably, epileptic activity is related to progressive changes in functional organisation of the MTL (Bonora et al, 2011).…”

“…Notably, epileptic activity is related to progressive changes in functional organisation of the MTL (Bonora et al, 2011). This suggests that epileptic activity has progressive negative consequences for autistic traits, and this indicates that active epilepsy may be partly causal in the severity of autistic traits in adults with epilepsy.…”

“…Specifically, chronic MTLE has been associated with emotional recognition deficits including FER (Bonora et al, 2011). Meletti and colleagues demonstrated that chronic drug-resistant TLE is associated with FER impairment (Meletti et al, 2009).…”

“…The AQ will be employed to investigate social and non-social autistic characteristics in adults with epilepsy measured as traits in the 'without aura' condition. Evidence suggests that epileptic activity during seizures may 'induce' rather than merely 'stimulate' some autistic characteristics in epilepsy (Bonora et al, 2011;Gabis et al, 2005;Tuchman, 2006). However, while this relationship implicates seizure activity, it has not been directly investigated.…”

ObjectiveFocal epilepsy can have significant negative impacts on a person's health‐related quality of life (HRQoL). Although studies have been published on HRQoL in persons with focal epilepsy (PWFE), determinants of HRQoL have not been comprehensively examined. This systematic literature review (SLR) queried existing literature to identify aspects associated with HRQoL in PWFE without focus on resective epilepsy surgery, with an interest in identifying modifiable determinants for medical/nonmedical interventions.MethodsThis SLR was conducted in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta‐Analyses guidelines. Searches were conducted in PubMed and Google Scholar for articles published from January 1, 1900, to February 19, 2023, reporting on the association between HRQoL or employability and a range of demographic, psychosocial, or epilepsy‐related factors and comorbidities in PWFE.ResultsA total of 879 abstracts were identified, with 126 manuscripts reviewed and 37 studies selected for inclusion that quantified the relationship between HRQoL and the variable of interest by multivariate (N = 21) or univariate only (N = 15) methods; 10 multivariate models also included univariate data. In adjusted models, the most commonly examined determinants of HRQoL included depression (n = 15/21), number of antiseizure medications (ASMs; n = 13/21), seizure frequency (continuous seizure count, n = 11/21; seizure freedom, n = 5/21), anxiety (n = 10/21), duration of disease (n = 9/21), and cognition (n = 9/21). Depression, anxiety, and cognition were frequently seen as significant contributors to HRQoL when studied (14/15 [93%], 9/10 [90%], and 7/9 [78%], respectively). Among concepts studied less frequently, ASM severity/adverse event burden was significant each time examined (in 5/19 studies). Attainment of seizure freedom and employability was significant 75% (n = 3/4) and 72% (n = 5/7) of the time, respectively.SignificancePoor HRQoL in PWFE can be attributed to a multitude of factors, including depression, anxiety, factors in disease management, and employability. An unmet need remains in addressing elements associated with poor HRQoL in this population.
