The frequency distributions between the cohort from Centre 1 without adult-onset cases (childhood and adolescence cases only, onset < 19 years) and the cohort from Centre 2 only showed a trend-level difference regarding ictal onset (χ 2 (2) = 5.57, P = 0.062), but were significantly different concerning abnormal interictal slowing (χ 2 (2) = 13.90, P < 0.001) and interictal epileptiform discharges (χ 2 (2) = 12.65, P = 0.002).
