From: Population-Level Evidence for an Autoimmune Etiology of Epilepsy JAMA Neurol. 2014;71(5): doi: /jamaneurol Figure Legend: Risk of Epilepsy in Children (<18 Years) and Nonelderly Adults (≤65 Years) With Autoimmune Disease Compared With Individuals Without Autoimmune DiseaseEpilepsy susceptibility was consistently heightened in patients with autoimmune diseases (P < .001). Collectively, patients with any of the autoimmune diseases under study constituted 17.5% of the total epilepsy population. OR indicates odds ratio; SLE, systemic lupus erythematosus. Data markers indicate ORs and limit lines, 95% CIs. Date of download: 10/21/2017 Copyright © 2014 American Medical Association. All rights reserved.
