Table 3 Summary of study parameters. Summary table of variables used in this retrospective study to compare between the control (no seizure history) and seizure groups. Variables shown are corrected age of death, post-mortem interval (PMI), gender and seizure interval (from seizure onset until death). Comparison demonstrated broad overlap especially in the range of age of death and PMI between control and seizure sets
