What is Determinants of medication adherence in people with epilepsy: A multicenter, cross-sectional survey about?
Objectives Poor medication adherence in people with epilepsy (PwE) increases mortality, hospitalization, and poor quality of life, representing a critical challenge for clinicians. Several demographic, clinical, and neuropsychological factors were singularly found associated with medication adherence in several studies, but the literature lacks a comprehensive study simultaneously assessing all these variables. Methods We performed a multicenter and cross-sectional study using online questionnaires with the following clinical scales: Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-8), Quality of Life in Epilepsy Inventory 31 (QoLIE-31), Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II), Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) and 14-item Resilience scale (RES14) in a population of 200 PwE. We used the ANOVA test and Spearman’s correlation to evaluate the relationship between medication adherence and demographic, clinical (seizure frequency, number of anti-seizure medications), and neuropsychological characteristics. We trained separate machine learning models (logistic regression, random forest, support vector machine) to classify patients with medium–high adherence (MMAS-8 ≥ 6) and poor adherence (MM
