Epileptic patients are plighted with limited daily activities, social dysfunction, family conflicts and cognitive impairment. Most of the studies had showed that cognitive disorders were frequent in patients with epilepsy.The cognitive impairment has been reported in around 25% of epileptic patients.

DEVICE

Electroencephalography

The patients underwent EEG recordings according to previously published methods (Bonanni et al., 2008). . EEG recordings were analyzed with methods described in our previous work (Bonanni et al., 2008) by 2 experimenters unaware of the clinical conditions of the subjects. Briefly, quantitative EEGs (QEEGs) were recorded from 21 scalp derivations. Ag/AgCl disk scalp electrodes (19) were placed according to the international 10-20 system, EEG was recorded from Fp1, Fp2, Fz, F3, F4, F7, F8, Cz, C3, C4, Pz, P3, P4, T3, T 4, T5, T6, O1, and O2. Two additional electrodes were placed on A1 and A2. EEG activity was analyzed from single or multiple leads grouped to define the following scalp regions: anterior (Fz, Fp2, F7, Fp1, F3, F4, and F8), central (Cz, C3, and C4), posterior (Pz, P3, P4, O1, and O2), and temporal (T3, T4, T5, and T6).
