This study aims to investigate the factors influencing seizure control among patients with convulsive epilepsy in rural areas of Shaanxi Province, Northwest China.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Participants enrolled in the Rural Epilepsy Prevention and Management Project in Shaanxi Province between January 2012 and September 2020 were included in this cross\u2010sectional study. Baseline sociodemographic, clinical characteristics, and epilepsy\u2010related psychological concerns were collected. Patients were categorized based on seizure reduction compared to the baseline over the past year: Group with controlled seizures and group with uncontrolled seizures. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with seizure control.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The study included 1242 patients (714 males, 57.5%), with a median age of 48.0 (36.0, 58.0) years.
