Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Differences in the latency and amplitude of event-related potentials between epilepsy patients with a HAMD-17 scale score greater than 7 and patients with a HAMD-17 scale score less than or equal to 7, and the improvement after 6 months of treatment.;

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Exploration of biomarkers of patient blood and urine: metabonomics was performed in blood and urine of patients with epilepsy and depression to explore the correlation between related polyunsaturated fatty acid metabolites and depression severity.;
