Abstract
A large multicenter retrospective cohort study was conducted by researchers from the Pediatric Health Information System hospital network to determine differences in demographics, clinical characteristics, testing, treatment, and healthcare use between children aged 8-20 years with epilepsy (n = 13,241) and those with psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNES) secondary to conversion disorder (n = 399).
