Epilepsy has been shown to have consistent detrimental effects on cognitive and motor function and mental health. During the 17-year follow-up period, people with the disease had a significantly increased risk of neurological diseases and mental disorders.
Several brain regions associated with epilepsy have also been identified. Including the pallidum, hippocampus and precentral areas. Mediating effects were seen for peripheral markers and proteins. This means that the liver and lipid metabolism play a role in the development of brain disorders in people with epilepsy.
