We studied the risk of epilepsy after stroke while accounting for sex, age, stroke types and severity, calendar time, and death.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>METHODS:<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>\n              This was a prospective nationwide register-based, matched cohort study of patients admitted with a validated first stroke in Denmark from April 1, 2004, to December 16, 2018, excluding those with prior epilepsy. Patients with stroke were matched 10:1 on age, sex, and calendar time with reference people without prior epilepsy or stroke.

Two years after the stroke, the cumulative incidence of epilepsy was 3.0% (95% CI, 2.9\u20133.2) after ischemic stroke and 8.6% (95% CI, 8.0\u20139.2) after intracerebral hemorrhage versus 0.7% (95% CI, 0.7\u20130.7) in the matched references. Compared with the reference population, the 2-year hazard ratio of epilepsy was 21.7 (95% CI, 20.3\u201323.2) after ischemic stroke and 61.3 (95% CI, 51.1\u201373.4) after intracerebral hemorrhage. The risk of epilepsy increased with stroke severity; the 2-year cumulative incidence of epilepsy was 10.5% (95% CI, 9.5\u201311.4) for very severe ischemic stroke and 13.1% (95% CI, 11.1\u201315.1) after very severe intracerebral hemorrhage.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>CONCLUSIONS:<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>In this population-based study of patients with validated stroke, the absolute and relative risk estimates of poststroke epilepsy were lower compared with previous studies. Reasons for the lower risk estimates include accounting for the high mortality associated with stroke, which had a significant impact on risk especially for severe stroke.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1161\/strokeaha.123.044203","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,23]],"date-time":"2024-02-23T05:01:02Z","timestamp":1708664462000},"page":"972-982","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1161\/crossmarkpolicy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Stroke and Risk of Epilepsy: A Danish Nationwide Register-Based Study"],"prefix":"10.1161","volume":"55","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0825-063X","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Mads Qvist Buur","family":"Ebbesen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurology, Aarhus University Hospital, Denmark (M.Q.B.E., G.A., J.C.)."},{"name":"National Centre for Register-Based Research (M.Q.B.E., J.W.D., J.C.), Aarhus University, Denmark."},{"name":"Department of Clinical Medicine (M.Q.B.E., G.A., J.C.), Aarhus University, Denmark."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9339-4170","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Julie Werenberg","family":"Dreier","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Centre for Register-Based Research (M.Q.B.E., J.W.D., J.C.), Aarhus University, Denmark."},{"name":"Centre for Integrated Register-Based Research (CIRRAU) (J.W.D.), Aarhus University, Denmark."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6807-2500","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Grethe","family":"Andersen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurology, Aarhus University Hospital, Denmark (M.Q.B.E., G.A., J.C.)."},{"name":"Department of Clinical Medicine (M.Q.B.E., G.A., J.C.), Aarhus University, Denmark."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2787-0271","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"S\u00f8ren Paaske","family":"Johnsen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Danish Center for Clinical Health Services Research, Department of Clinical Medicine, Aalborg University, Denmark (S.P.J.)."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jakob","family":"Christensen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurology, Aarhus University Hospital, Denmark (M.Q.B.E., G.A., J.C.)."},{"name":"National Centre for Register-Based Research (M.Q.B.E., J.W.D., J.C.), Aarhus University, Denmark."},{"name":"Department of Clinical Medicine (M.Q.B.E., G.A., J.C.), Aarhus University, Denmark."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1474-4422(18)30499-X"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(20)30925-9"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1212\/wnl.62.5_suppl_2.s24"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/2396987316669000"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/STROKEAHA.111.000220"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1528-1167.2005.57904.x"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1212\/WNL.0000000000005212"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1474-4422(17)30404-0"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/ane.12070"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jstrokecerebrovasdis.2005.07.001"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ana.26212"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1212\/wnl.0000000000011636"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10654-014-9930-3"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2147\/CLEP.S103662"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_16_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000108825"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_17_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jstrokecerebrovasdis.2009.02.003"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_18_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2147\/CLEP.S91125"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_19_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/epi.12550"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_20_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1528-1167.2008.01945.x"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_21_2","volume-title":"Prodlim: Product-limit estimation for censored event history analysis.
