Prognostic value of EEG asymmetries for development of drug-resistance in drug-naïve patients with genetic generalized epilepsies

Objective Previous studies based solely on visual EEG analysis reported equivocal results regarding an association of pharmaco-resistance with EEG asymmetries in genetic generalized epilepsies (GGE). We addressed this issue by applying both visual and quantitative methods to the pretreatment EEG of GGE patients.
