Abstract

  Introduction: Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder that may last a lifetime and will require regular medical care. To examine the factors affecting the occurrence of seizures and i nterictal epileptiform discharge (IED) in epileptic patients with considering the correlation between them and also because of the lack of similar studies in this field made the necessity of performing this research.   Material and Methods: Data were recorded from 97 epileptic patients referred to Shafa Neuroscience Center between 2007 and 2010. Data analysis was performed using shared random effect model. Software used for data analysis was SAS 9.2, and significance level was regarded as 0.05.   Results: Among the factors of gender, seizure type, war wounded and duration of epilepsy, only two factors had jointly statistically significant effect Duration of epilepsy on IED (p
