It has been suggestedthat etiology or seizure type would increase the risk of pharmacoresistance. This study aims to comparethe characteristics of patients with drug-sensitive epilepsy with patients with drug-resistant epilepsy toidentify risk factors.Patient and methods: A multicentric cohort study was conducted between 2019 and 2022. We includedpatients >18 years-old with epilepsy but excluded psychogenic non-epileptic seizures and less than 2years of follow-up.Results: We included 128 patients, of whom 46 had drug-resistance epilepsy, and 82 responding tomedication. Both groups showed similar characteristics. Febrile seizures (OR: 7.25), focal epilepsy (OR:2.4), focal seizures with loss of consciousness (OR: 2.36), structural etiology (OR: 2.2) and abnormal MRI(OR: 4.6) were significant risk factors for drug-resistance epilepsy.Conclusion: Following other studies, we observed that factors such as epilepsy type, seizure type, struc-tural etiology, abnormal MRI, and febrile seizure increased the risk for drug-resistance epilepsy, in ourpopulation. Resumen: Introducción: La epilepsia farmacorresistente se presenta en aproximadamente 30% de los pacientes quepadecen epilepsia. Se ha sugerido que la etiología o el tipo de crisis aumentarían el riesgo de farma-corresistencia. El objetivo de este estudio es comparar las características de los pacientes con epilepsiafármacosensible con las de los pacientes con epilepsia farmacorresistente para identificar los factores deriesgo.Pacientes y métodos: Se realizó un estudio de cohorte multicéntrico entre 2019 y 2022. Se incluyeronpacientes >18 a˜nos con epilepsia pero se excluyeron las crisis psicógenas no epilépticas y menos de dosa˜nos de seguimiento.Resultados: Se incluyeron 128 pacientes, de los cuales 46 tenían epilepsia farmacorresistente y 82respondían a la medicación. Ambos grupos mostraron características similares. Las crisis febriles (OR:7,25), la epilepsia focal (OR: 2,4), las crisis focales con pérdida de conciencia (OR: 2,36), la etiologíaestructural (OR: 2,2) y la resonancia magnética anormal (OR: 4,6) fueron factores de riesgo significativosde epilepsia farmacorresistente. 2023-05-29T16:41:09Z 2023-05-29T16:41:09Z 2023 Artículo Lagger, I. et al.
