- W2997505036 abstract "Background War related disorders such as posttraumatic stress and psychosomatic disease have been recognised over recent years; however the exact spectrum of these disorders, is unknown. Objectives To study the effect of war on the Benghazi Libyan population with epilepsy. Methods A prospective study by questionnaire and EEG of 23 patients who have epilepsy attending the neurological clinics at Benghazi Medical Center and the University Specialist Clinic Benghazi. Their psychological status was documented, as well as the physical status, drug availability and compliance. Data were analysed, and graphs created using Microsoft Word EXCEL. Results The war did not appear to change the epilepsy frequency in the majority of patients. 18 (78%) reported no change, only five (22%) patients had a significant increase in seizure activity and frequency, of whom 2 (40%) were poorly complaint with anticonvulsant drug therapy. So only 3 patients (13%) had no other apparent cause but the war to account for their increased fits. The emergence of new fear, stress, panic, or depression and phobias was documented in 39%. These were more likely with lack of drug compliance (78%), and the presence of comorbidity (17%). Conclusions We concluded that when drug availability and compliance were ensured stable patients with epilepsy were unlikely to suffer increased frequency during stressful war events; however a significant percentage (39%) reported the emergence of new fear, stress, panic, or depression and phobias. These were more likely with lack of drug compliance." @default.
