Fig. 1 The difference of the overall AES-S score with respect to AED year. Patients who took AEDs for 20 years or more have a higher degree of interictal apathy compared with those who received AEDs for 1–9 years (p=0.002). The comparison was conducted by analyses of covariance controlling for depression. AES-S: Apathy Evaluation Scale-Self; AED: Antiepileptic drug.
