Abstract

Objective: To systematically evaluate therapeutic success of the KETOGENIC DIET (KD) as a treatment option for EPILEPSY.Methods: Using MEDLINE and Google Scholar search, we searched for studies investigating the therapeutic success of KETOGENIC DIET for EPILEPSY. We estimated therapeutic success rate for KETOGENIC DIET as a treatment option for EPILEPSY and its 95% CIs using generic inverse variance method.Findings: A total of 38 studies met the inclusion criteria. In retrospective studies, the weighted success rate of the patients who take the KD as a treatment option for EPILEPSY was 58.4% (95% confidence interval (95%CI)=48.7%-69.9%) at 3 months (n=336), 42.8% (95%CI=36.3%-50.3%) at 6 months (n=492), and 30.1% (95%CI=24.3%-37.2%) at 12 months (n=387), in prospective studies, weighted success rate was 53.9% (95%CI 45.5%-63.8%) at 3 months (n=474), 53.2% (95%CI=44.0%-64.2%) at 6 months (n=321), and 55.0% (95%CI=45.9%-65.9%) at 12 months (n=347).Conclusion: This META-ANALYSIS provides formal statistical support for the efficacy of the KETOGENIC DIET in the treatment of epileptic patients.
