There were no restrictions on language or publication date.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Data Extraction and Synthesis<\/jats:title>\n Abstracts were reviewed in duplicate, and data were extracted using a standardized electronic form. Descriptive statistics and meta-analyses are presented.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Main Outcomes and Measures<\/jats:title>\n Data were recorded on the prevalence of 20 psychiatric disorders among PWE compared with persons without epilepsy. Meta-analyses were performed along with descriptive analyses.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n The systematic search identified 10\u202f392 studies, 27 of which met eligibility criteria. The meta-analyses included 565\u202f443 PWE and 13\u202f434\u202f208 persons without epilepsy. The odds of most psychiatric disorders studied were significantly increased in PWE compared with those without epilepsy, including anxiety (odds ratio [OR], 2.11; 95% CI, 1.73-2.58); depression (OR, 2.45; 95% CI, 1.94-3.09); bipolar disorder (OR, 3.12; 95% CI, 2.23-4.36); suicidal ideation (OR, 2.25; 95% CI, 1.75-2.88) but not suicide attempt (OR, 3.17; 95% CI, 0.49-20.46); psychotic disorder (OR, 3.98; 95% CI, 2.57-6.15); schizophrenia (OR, 3.72; 95% CI, 2.44-5.67); obsessive-compulsive disorder (OR, 2.71; 95% CI, 1.76-4.15); posttraumatic stress disorder (OR, 1.76; 95% CI, 1.14-2.73); eating disorders (OR, 1.87; 95% CI, 1.73-2.01); alcohol misuse (OR, 3.64; 95% CI, 2.27-5.83) and alcohol dependence (OR, 4.94; 95% CI, 3.50-6.96) but not alcohol abuse (OR, 2.10; 95% CI, 0.60-7.37); substance use disorder (OR, 2.75; 95% CI, 1.61-4.72); autism spectrum disorder (OR, 10.67; 95% CI, 6.35-17.91); and attention-deficit\/hyperactivity disorder (OR, 3.93; 95% CI, 3.80-4.08).<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions and Relevance<\/jats:title>\n In this comprehensive study, most psychiatric comorbidities examined were significantly more prevalent in PWE than in those without epilepsy. These findings show the high burden of psychiatric comorbidities in PWE. This, in turn, underscores the need for appropriately identifying and treating psychiatric comorbidity in epilepsy to manage patients effectively and improve quality of life.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1001\/jamaneurol.2024.3976","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,25]],"date-time":"2024-11-25T11:32:24Z","timestamp":1732534344000},"page":"72","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":89,"title":["Psychiatric Comorbidities in Persons With Epilepsy Compared With Persons Without Epilepsy"],"prefix":"10.1001","volume":"82","author":[{"given":"Churl-Su","family":"Kwon","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Epidemiology, Columbia University Irving Medical Center, New York, New York"},{"name":"Department of Neurology, Columbia University Irving Medical Center, New York, New York"},{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Columbia University Irving Medical Center, New York, New York"},{"name":"The Gertrude H.
